“Overlip” by K-Beauty – The New Standard in Lip Contouring Trend on TikTok

Lip contouring has long been familiar to beauty enthusiasts. But the ‘overlip’ trend has only recently emerged thanks to the explosion of the technology era.

K-Beauty – originating from South Korea – is currently the favorite beauty playground of Gen Z. They create and lead trends with ‘jaw-dropping’ trends like Glass Skin. This time around, K-Beauty has amazed our community with the ‘Overlip’ technique.

Let’s delve into this conversation with Style-Republik. What is the overlip trend? You only need a lip pencil, which can come from big names like Chanel, Dior, NARS,… or affordable brands like Silky Girl, NYX, Clio,… You can choose any type you like, but you must choose a lip pencil color that matches the lipstick color. This will help you easily create a soft and blended effect.

Try to blur the lip line by drawing lines extending outside the lips. The “Overlip” technique creates a natural and full look, making the lips stand out and more defined. Essentially, this is an upgraded version of Overlining (lining the lips without overfilling). Additionally, this makeup technique can still use a rounded-tip lip pencil similar to a crayon, which is larger than traditional lip liners to blur rather than define the lip line.

Now you can try this lip makeup style for a fun date night!
