How to Get the Blurred Lip Look: Soft, Smudgy, and So Chic

If your feed has been flooded with ultra-defined, perfectly lined lips, you’re not alone. The sharp-lip trend has been a beauty mainstay for years. But if you’re craving a softer, more effortless vibe, it’s time to try something fresh-blurred lips. 

Unlike crisp outlines, blurred lips embrace imperfection, with smudged edges that give a dreamy, romantic appeal. Think modern, low-maintenance, and insanely wearable. Even better, it’s incredibly easy to recreate.

Here’s how to master the blurred lip look in just a few simple steps-featuring Moonduchess Matee Lipstick or Tamaraa Liquid Lipstick for that soft-focus finish.

Step 1: Prep Your Lips

Start by hydrating your lips with lip balm so that you can have a smooth and even base on the lips. 

Step 2: Apply Lipstick to the Center

Choose a creamy or velvet-finish lipstick like Moonduchess Matee Lipstick or the ultra-blendable Tamaraa Liquid Lipstick. Gently dab the color in the center of your lips-top and bottom. There’s no need to go all the way to the edges.

Step 3: Blur It Out

Using your fingertip or a small lip brush, gently pat and smudge the color outward from the center. Focus on softening the edges rather than filling them in completely. You want to create a natural gradient effect-deeper in the middle and fading softly at the edges.

Step 4: Optional Gloss

If you want a dewy finish, top it off with a sheer gloss. But for a classic blurred look, leave it matte or semi-matte. The goal is a lip that looks naturally flushed—not overly polished.

Whether you’re heading to brunch, a date, or just want a fresh take on daily makeup, blurred lips are a gorgeous update. With Moonduchess Matee or Tamaraa Liquid Lipstick, achieving this look is effortless, modern, and 100% scroll-stopping.
