Full lips have remained a timeless beauty trend, but they are currently at the forefront. This is evident through popular celebrities such as Madelyn Cline, Kylie Jenner, Kim and Khloe Kardashian, who all flaunt an enviable pout with gorgeous lips. Yes, we know Kylie Jenner got fillers, but they have been removed and she doesn't use injections like many people think either.
While a lot of people assume lip doctors are used, in real life, there are simple yet temporary beauty tricks that can transform thin lips into enviable pouts. Celebrity makeup experts have shared their best-kept techniques for achieving a plumper lip look without any needles involved.
Do You Need To Exfoliate Your Lips?
If you want to achieve brighter and more youthful skin, exfoliation is the key. This rule also applies to your lips, according to Sydney Sweeney who strongly advocates for lip care. Her lips serve as an example that exfoliating can give you a stunning flush and naturally fuller-looking lips by removing unwanted skin cells.
There are different ways to exfoliate your lips. You can use a toothbrush however that can be a little too abrasive unless you have really dry lips. You can make your own lip scrub too. Mix coconut oil, peppermint oil, and raw cane sugar in a glass jar, it will be somewhat effective too. The issue is that coconut oil melts with the slightest bit of heat, so the DIY version can get a little messy when it hits the lips and it doesn't allow for the coconut oil to get really seep in. Your best bet is leaving it to the professionals.
Poppy & Pout's lip scrubs are made with 100% natural ingredients, such as sucrose, coconut oil, sunflower oil, beeswax, natural flavor oil, and vitamin E. These ingredients are carefully mixed with natural flavoring to create a delicious taste on your lips. As a cruelty-free brand, all of their products are never tested on animals. Each scrub is hand made at their headquarters in Idaho with love and care. The beautiful colored glass jars are fully recyclable and reusable, and they are so lovely that you may even want to use them as decorations. We highly recommend the pomegranate and peach flavor.
Slightly Overlining Your Cupid's Bow Makes Lips Look Fuller
According to Ariana Grande's makeup artist, incorporating this trick into your makeup routine is a must. Daniel Chinchilla warns that it's not as easy as it appears, and recommends taking things slow. His tip is to choose a lip liner that's a shade darker than your natural lip line.
NYX Lasting Lip Liner has various shades for different skin tones and comes highly recommended. The formula of NYX Lasting Lip Color is designed to stay put for hours, even through eating and drinking. It is also smudge-proof and transfer-resistant, making it a great choice for those who want a long-lasting lip color without the hassle of touch-ups.
Additionally, the product is enriched with moisturizing ingredients that keep lips feeling soft and smooth throughout the day. With its wide range of shades and impressive staying power, NYX Lasting Lip Liner is a must-have for any makeup collection.
Contour Around Your Lips To Make Them Appear Fuller
To enhance your lip color and make your lips appear fuller, try using a lightweight concealer that is one shade lighter than your skin tone around the lips. Use a tip applicator for precision, and apply over the lip line before using a nude lip liner to create the illusion of fullness.
Finish with lipstick and a shimmery gloss in the center for maximum effect. L'oreal Paris Magic Lumi Highlighter is perfect for this effect.
Add Shimmer And Shine To Your Lips To Naturally Plump Them
Here is another trick for creating the illusion of fuller lips, apply a pearlescent lip color in the center of the lips over a flat or matte lipstick, it creates a reflective effect making the lips appear bigger. To try this yourself, start by applying a base coat of matte lipstick and then use a lip brush to apply the shimmery lip color in the center of your lips.
NYX fat oil and Burt's Bees Mothers Day Lip Balm are two choices we recommend.
Do Lip Plumpers Really Work?
For decades, lip plumpers have been available, but they were not very effective in the 1990s. Today, thanks to clinically proven ingredients, lip plumpers can produce real results quickly. The only one you need is Buxom. Want Madelyn Cline lips? Us too, she uses Buxom. It is by far the best out there to achieve the full pout look.
There are also lip masks available that can provide a range of benefits for your lips. KNC Beauty's All Natural Collagen Infused Lip Mask is a great option, as it contains nourishing ingredients like rose flower oil, cherry extract, and vitamin E, as well as collagen to plump and hydrate your lips.
For the best results, leave the mask on for at least 15-20 minutes and use it 2-3 times per week. Sheet-mask lovers will be thrilled to add this product to their routine!
