When it comes to getting a sultry, sexy makeup look, there are three main areas that you want to focus on: Your eyebrows, eyes, and lips. 

Eyebrows

When you are trying to achieve a sexy makeup look, it is important to create really sharp, defined eyebrows, or dark, prominent ones. In the picture above, you can see how the woman’s dark eyebrows stand out, so dark eyebrows can really give you a more sexy, sultry look. Dark eyebrows can really draw people’s eyes to your face in a powerful way.

Eyebrows help define and frame the eyes. They can also help create the illusion of symmetry in the face, so they are crucial for professional-looking makeup. Of course, you can still achieve a sexy makeup look with lighter, less pronounced eyebrows, but if you do that, I recommend going heavier on your eye makeup, or going for a strong, dark lip color.

Eyes

When creating sexy eye makeup, focus more on either eyeliner or eyeshadow. Balance is key. Eye makeup does not have to be extreme or dramatic to be sexy.

When creating a sexy eye makeup look with eyeliner, I avoid light pink eyeshadows, and I like to go heavy on the eyeliner. Two fun sexy eye makeup looks are the smokey eye and winged eyeliner looks.

Black eyeliner makes it easier to create sexy makeup looks, but you can also achieve a sexy makeup look with dark brown eyeliner if you create a wing with it or line both your upper and lower lash line. 

Lips

When going for a sexy makeup look, I recommend avoiding light pink lipstick because it can add a soft, gentle, innocent look to your makeup. Instead, go for a nude lip if you decide to go heavy on your eye makeup, or pair a dark lip, such as a red, purple, black, or burgundy lip color with your eyeliner. Matte nude lipstick is always very sexy, so I recommend going matte if you choose a “my lips but better” lip shade.
