Lily Aldridge Is About to Make You Believe in the Power of Lip Liner

Red lipstick is a Valentine’s Day staple, and let this picture of Lily Aldridge remind you of one key to making it look extra perfect:

Her lipstick (which is MAC’s Ruby Woo, selected by makeup artist Quinn Murphy) is gorgeous but there’s something else I want to talk about. Her lip line is so precise. So perfectly exact. You know what must be behind it? A lip pencil. Sure, you can skip lip liner in a pinch—you’ll still be the H๏τ girl in the red lipstick. But taking that extra few seconds takes things up a notch. And if there’s anything I think we all hope to do on Valentine’s Day it’s take things up a notch.
