You Must See This MUA Do a Full Makeup Look With Just Lipsticks

You Must See This MUA Do a Full Makeup Look With Just Lipsticks

We’re all for figuring out ways to simplify your beauty routine, and this makeup artist just demonstrated how to do a full face of makeup using only lipstick. Our minds are blown.


Los Angeles-based makeup artist and YouTuber Ryan Potter, AKA @ryanbpotter, is known for his stunning makeup looks, but his latest video is truly next-level. He proves that you can do a full contour and a flawless, shimmery smokey eye using only MAC Cosmetics lipsticks, and we are shook. The transformation from bare-faced to uber glam is awe-inspiring.

Potter used several shades of MAC’s most popular lip colors, including “A Girl’s Got Needs,” a warm brown; “Film Noir,” a deep reddish brown; “Bare Bling,” a warm peach; and “Nicki’s Nude,” a warm coral, among others.

Yes, when we say its a full face, he even filled in his brows with the stuff! In his caption, the YouTube star quipped: “Are lipsticks the new foundation?” and honestly… they just might be.
