flowers & simplicity and ribs & cages.

I've been meaning to make a set of lips with more pinks, reds, and browns... more natural-looking colors. I had a bit of time over the last couple of days, so I played around and came up with two sets that I quite like.

(bigger.)

(xeath is wearing 'ribs&cages - #12,' kenna is wearing 'ribs&cages - #6.')







(bigger.)

(madelyn is wearing 'flowers&simplicity - #19,' ikaia is wearing 'flowers&simplicity - #25.')






(bigger.)

(dakota is wearing 'ribs&cages - #4,' bianca is wearing 'flowers&simplicity - #17.')

Here they are unedited...

And, swatches! (They're not the same size, because I suck. Sorry about that lack of consistency. Lame.)

I really love Ribs&Cages! These are gorgeous, Jessi!

Btw, what program do you use? If you use Photoshop, you can make an action for your lips swatches to be the same size. :)

Thanks! I'm glad you like them.

And yes, I do use Photoshop... My method for making swatches generally words well enough, but I just forgot to resize the final images to be the same size. I suppose I could make an action... interesting idea. Thanks!

I really recommend it! The one time I did lips it saved me a huge headache from trying to get each swatch perfect. The action was kind of useless for anything else, but whatever works. ^_^

I like both, but ribs and cages are my favourites, they look so soft and I love that you made dark colors :)

[jessi_dot]

I'm glad! I always try to include at least a few darker colors, to work for darker skin tones. I prefer darker skins, and so often makeup just doesn't work on them. Sad news!

I love both, but the 'Ribs & Cages' set is my favourite. And darker colours are most certainly needed, its hard to find nice darker shades of lippy. Thank you for these :)

[jessi_dot]

You're welcome! I get so frustrated by the lack of darker shades, so I definitely make it a point to include some in my own sets. :)
