Hello everyone, trust you're all doing good 🥰
How I Draw Realistic Lips ✍️
1️⃣ Sketch Lightly – I start with a soft outline using an HB pencil to shape the lips.
2️⃣ Define Shadows – The upper lip is darker than the lower lip, so I shade accordingly with a 2B or 4B pencil.
3️⃣ Add Texture – Fine lines make the lips look natural. I lightly sketch them and blend for a soft effect.
4️⃣ Deepen Contrast – Using a 6B or 8B pencil, I darken the corners and midline for depth.
5️⃣ Highlight for Realism – A kneaded eraser lifts light areas, making the lips look glossy.
6️⃣ Final Touches – Soft shadows under the lower lip make it pop!
