Paying attention to beauty trends on the red carpet is integral to my job as a beauty editor, and it’s clear that all of the hottest celebrity looks from awards season have one thing in common \u2014 smudged lip liner. Yes, while you may think lip liner is meant to clearly outline your pout and add crisp definition, this season it’s all about taking a more soft focus approach to your makeup.<\/p>\n

Slightly diffused and gently blurred, this is the makeup artist Nina Park<\/a> Who has undoubtedly been leading the way with this smoky lip liner look. Known for painting the faces of everyone from Zoe Kravitz to Lily-Rose Depp, her approach to effortlessly fabulous “no makeup” makeup that never looks too hard is her trademark. And smoky lips are the epitome of walking the line between looking polished without full makeup feeling overly precise.<\/p>\n

Even better, while I like to move away from super-defined lips for aesthetic reasons (honestly, it’s pretty cute!) it’s also appealing because I feel like I have a chance to actually recreate the look for myself at home. As someone who isn’t particularly skilled in the makeup department, the fact that smoky lips actually look wearable \u2014 and don’t require a steady hand \u2014 means this is a trend I can see transitioning from the red carpet to real life with perfect ease. After all, it would look just as good with bare skin and a little bit of kajal as it would on a face full of glam.<\/p>\n
