Over the past few months, I’ve been hearing about this new trend/product called Violent Lips. It’s a new way to spice up your lips and make a statement that is much more bolder than ordinary lipstick. Last night, out of sheer boredom, I decided to try some while at home.
There are a range of patterns to choose from which includes pink glitter, red stripes, pink cheetah, denim and more and there are three applications that come in each pack. I attempted to try the pink cheetah one first (big mistake..lol. Way too daring). Once I took the application out of the pack, I realized I would need some materials that I wasn’t sure I had. To apply the lip tattoos, you have to have a pair of scissors so that you can cut them to shape your mouth and you have to have a cotton swab and lots of water. Since I didn’t have cotton balls, I opted to use a wet rag (#FAIL). To be completely honest, the directions that came in the pack were a bit confusing as well, however there are plenty of handy dandy youtube videos that give very good step by step directions.
The Before
Here’s my end result which didn’t look too pretty. My main mistake was not using enough water to seal the application (the cotton swab would have helped) and I also made the mistake of rubbing my lips together while they were still wet which ultimately messed my application up. I was also told that you should put chap stick over top of the lip tattoo when you are done. Duh well.. I have plenty more of these to try so maybe I’ll update when I get it right 🙂
Check out some pics of chicks that have rocked it well:

Here’s a step by step tutorial on how to apply
It didn’t turn out so bad (though it’s hard to tell since we’re not seeing it in context). You look super cute in the “before” picture by the way!…Almost like a kid that’s beaming with excitement! Lol
I asked (on your other site) and I received! I LOVE LOVE LOVE these Necole. I got the red glitterati’s and LOVE them! I’d rather “fool” with these than fake lashes. I found the application fairly easy!!! The water and chapstick are key. Plain old Carmex works like a charm!
Nicole where can I find this??
