Hot pink lips with Patrick Ta

If you know anything about beauty Instagram, you definitely know Patrick Ta. Nearly one million people follow him to get a glimpse of his latest red-carpet look (and, let’s be real, the chance to see his gorgeous clients like Shay Mitchell and Gigi Hadid). He’s a master of the statement lip, he makes eyes smolder like you wouldn’t believe, and nobody leaves his makeup chair without sporting his signature glow.

So when RHW spotted one of his most-liked pictures on Instagram—softly bronzed skin with a matte magenta lip—she had to get the lowdown on how to recreate it. And now you can, too.

PRODUCTS USED:

La Mer The Renewal Oil, La Mer The Soft Fluid Long Wear Foundation, Dior Nude Air Luminizer, Maybelline Total Temptation Eyeshadow + Highlight Palette, Nars Precision Lip Liner in Sainte-Maxime, Too Faced Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Lipstick in It’s Happening.
