Less is not always more, and sometimes having more options is better. Which is why we’re jumping on Laneige’s line of two tone products that comes in eyeshadows, blushers and lipsticks. Two tone eyeshadows and blushers are easy to use, and makes application really easy especially for beginners who might not be well-versed enough in makeup to pick the complementary colours. Laneige’s lipsticks, or lip bars as they call it, deserve a whole other mention by themselves.
Here’s the quick lowdown on these magical two tones bars from Laneige – they are a cross between a lipstick and a lip balm, with each bar consisting of two complementary colours for a gradient look. The colours might look strange in the tube, but rest assured that the resulting look when the lip bar is applied will make you wonder why you’ve never tried it sooner. With these babies, you can easily get natural ombre lips without spending too much time pairing and blending colours. The balmy texture has gotten sheer and matte updates, and both were hits in the beauty community. It’s pretty hard to find an actual matte lipsticks that won’t dry out your lips, never mind creating an ombre look out of matte lipsticks.
The original quartet from the Laniege x YCH collection: No. 1 Burgundy Mood, No. 2 Red Cashmere, No. 3 Powershoulder Pink, No. 4 Fitting Rose
If you couldn’t get enough of the matte version of these lip bars which were first launched a couple months ago as part of the Laneige X YCH collaboration, you can now rejoice because Laneige is not only bringing back the four colours permanently in the Two Tone series, they are also introducing six all new shades, including one super sultry wine red and a cheerful orange-y red. More colour, more fun!
The only downside is that you won’t be able to get it in the limited edition packaging that the first four colours came in. You’ll have to make do with the standard rectangle-ish pale pink tube. But with all these new gorgeous pairings to play with, we’re more than happy to make do with it! Check out all the new swatches:
Top row from left to right: No. 5 Sunshine Coral, No. 6 Red Velvet, No. 7 Apricot Candy
Bottom row from left to right: No. 8 Rose Layering, No. 9 Cherry Milk, No. 10 Soft Knit
Begone, dry and cracked lips!
