1. This is a no-make-up make-up look that looks great with a bit of liquid liner and mascara. Start by priming the lips with a dab of foundation that matches your natural skin tone - I've used L'Oreal Infallible Photograph: Hong Gyoung Tae

Now take a brown lip liner - I've used Rimmel's Stay On Lip Liner in pale coffee - and trace the lip outline. For that bee-stung look, which is what we want, use your liner to make a bridge across the bow, so lips look gently curved rather than indented Photograph: Hong Gyoung Tae

Next, take a take a fine lip brush and a creamy bubble-gum beige coloured lipstick - Modesty by Mac is a perfect shade - and fill in the middle area of your lips. Take the brush into the corners without going over the lines. Dab off excess colour with a tissue to give a really matt effect Photograph: Hong Gyoung Tae

Finally, apply a layer of lip gloss - I've chosen e.l.f. Hypershine Gloss with a pearly sheen. Brush on the middle of your lips and up to the bridge. For extra sheen, dab with tissue and give another coat of gloss Photograph: Hong Gyoung Tae
