Foiled Metallic Lips: How to do the coolest beauty trend of the season

These foiled metallic lips are so cool and actually really simple to recreate. All you need is metallic foil paper and some Vaseline.

To achieve these really striking foiled metallic lips you need to get some gold or silver leaf paper, which you can get from a good stationary shop. Alternatively, nail foils will work too which you can buy for very little on eBay.

The Method

1. Cut up your foil into tiny shapes to start
2. Apply a coat of Vaseline to your lips
3. A tweezers will make it easier to apply your tiny pieces of foil to the lips. Be creative here for this part. Put them in any design you like on the lips! Just make sure you place them right to the edges of the lip line.
