Simplify Your Summer Makeup Routine With This Cool Eye Shadow Hack

Saturate lips with Urban Decay Ozone Lip Primer ($20). It goes on like a lip balm, and Ozone helps fill in the vertical lines that make a bold lip look cracked. You can also apply the product over the lip line to keep the color from bleeding.

Cover lips with Urban Decay Asphyxia Eyeliner ($20). Using an eyeliner as a lip liner gives you a powerful pigment payoff, but the texture is a little tougher. Smile softly into the mirror, which will help avoid any tugging on the skin.

Give the lip a shiny lacquer with a layer of High Color Lipgloss in Bittersweet ($22). First, use the tip of the applicator to line lips. Then, use the flat surface to fill in the entire pout.

Use the glittery Jilted shadow shade from the Urban Decay Electric Palette ($49) to add glitz. Dab it on with your fingers in the center of the top and bottom lips.

You can also use the purple eye shadow shade as a blush. Don't worry — the bright powder formula loses some of its saturation when you apply it to the cheeks. So it will appear more flushed than fuchsia on the face (like in the photo ahead).

To use Jilted as blush, lightly dip a fluffy brush in the shadow and dab on your hand to get rid of excess product. Start with very little product, then layer on more if you need to. Even though it's the same violet color used on the lips, it looks muted on the cheeks.
