Kate Branch has a great head of hair\u2014we\u2019re talking signature volume and texture. Which is why, when she told us that she\u2019d spent most of her lifetime in an epic battle against it, we pressed her on what changed her mind. Her response involved Sally Singer, Solange, and blowdrying only the top fourth of her hair, so we thought her journey.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Your eye color is suddenly translucent, cheeks are flushed, there is soft rosy halo around your lash line, and your lips…your lips deepen as blood rushes through them and creates a beautiful, tragic look. This lip happens to work well for day or evening and doesn’t require you to cry! This method allows you to wear any lip color in a very natural and believable way.<\/p>\n

The secret to this look is creating a soft halo around your lip line. Start by taking your favorite lipstick, stain, or chubby lip pencil and saturating the color just on the center of your lips. Then, take your finger and blend the color over your lips as if you are rubbing

I can’t wait for you to try the crying lip. It’s so beautiful, it will bring you to tears.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Once the color starts dissolving into your lips, drag your finger right on top of your lip line, bleeding the color into your lip\u2014especially over your cupid’s bow. It’s like finger painting on a sensual canvas, leading to the perfect stain that will last for hours.<\/p>\n

This technique will also allow you to use those beautiful pops of color you’re always eyeing but never dare to buy<\/em>, since the method will only capture the color’s essence. My favorite three colors to use for the tragic lip are a coral red, a classic mauve, and a deep wine. The first color I used in the pictures is\u00a0YSL’s Rouge Pur Couture Vernis \u00c0 L\u00e8vres Glossy Stain\u00a0in\u00a08 Orange De Chine<\/em>\u00a0(which also made an appearance in this week’s\u00a0lip stain roundup!)\u2014the perfect orange-coral stain, but you must work quickly with blending as it sets quick. The second look is the rosy-mauve\u00a0Cl\u00e9 de Peau Beaut\u00e9 Extra Rich Lipstick\u00a0in\u00a0106.<\/em>\u00a0This creamy formula feels so heavenly on the lips and imparts the perfect “you-could-never-go-wrong” color, giving you a super-natural, yet flattering look. The third color is the\u00a0Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil<\/a>\u00a0in\u00a0Train Bleu<\/em>. Swipe this vampy color dead-center on lips and give it a good rub down to\u00a0transform your mouth into a deadly weapon that kills silently.<\/p>\n

\"I<\/a>
I grew up in the north suburbs outside of Chicago, surrounded by friends who were all beautiful, and funny, and smart.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It was at\u00a0T<\/em>\u00a0that I was fortunate enough to meet my hair stylist, Mike Viggue. He cut his teeth at Sally Hershberger’s salon and now occasionally assistants the legendary Anthony Turner on set and during fashion weeks. The first time I went to him, I asked for the good stuff: a keratin treatment. Six months later, I needed another fix, but he wouldn’t give it to me. “Your texture is too interesting to ruin,” he said. Interesting? For the next few years he cut and styled my interesting hair with his very capable hands, and a touch of\u00a0Shu Uemura Yokan Craft hair wax<\/a>, until I was ready for the ultimate test: a bob. I have been told by countless hairdressers that I would never be able to have bangs or short hair like my peers. Physics just wouldn’t allow for it, they’d say. But Mike did it for me, sans bangs, and taught me a few tricks to keep it from, well, not being wider than long.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
