For that post-makeout effect.

When it comes to lip trends, it can seem like there are only two options.

Youve got the glossy, glazed look, and youve got matte.

“Bitten lips” is the makeup trend you won’t have to touch up.

Now, theres a not-so-secret third option: the bitten lip trend.

Makeup has gotten messier.

Coquette has gone chaotic.

The Bitten Lips Look Is Everywhere

The undone beauty trend is all about embracing small imperfections.

The trend gives your pout some color while still looking natural.

Others are more uniform, consisting of just deep colors and a natural pout.

No wonder its so ubiquitous.

The subtle, bitten lip trend was seen all over New York Fashion Week, says Guevara.

Its a blend of the French concept of bouche mordue (just-bitten lips) and indie-sleaze-inspired undone beauty.

The result is ethereal, doll-like beauty with an unpolished edge.

To achieve the look, Guevara recommends using a lip mask beforehand for the smoothest system.
