Lipstick Tricks for Fuller Lips

Lipstick can make or break your overall makeup look, but did you know that it can also be used to create the illusion of fuller lips? In today's post, we're going to explore some handy lipstick tricks that will give you that desired plump pout. The first and foremost tip is to always keep your lips well moisturized. Dry and chapped lips can alter the application of your lipstick and make your lips appear smaller. Therefore, before starting with your lipstick application, exfoliate your lips and apply a good quality lip balm.

The next tip is all about creating an illusion with the help of lip liner. Choose a lip liner that is two shades darker than your lipstick shade. Start by highlighting the cupid's bow and then line the rest of your lips slightly over your natural lip line. This will give the illusion of naturally fuller lips. However, make sure not to go too far out of your lip line as it might end up looking unnatural. After lining your lips, fill them in with the same lip liner. This will not only give your lipstick a base to stick to but also make it last longer.

Another creative trick to create fuller lips is to highlight them. Apply a dab of clear lip gloss or a shimmery highlight at the center of your lips, right above your lipstick. This will catch the light and make them appear plump. Also, don't shy away from using lip-plumping products. There are a number of lipsticks and lip glosses available in the market nowadays that can give you immediate results. Lip-plumping products contain mild irritants such as capsicum or menthol that cause a slight swelling of the skin thus making your lips look fuller. Remember, beauty is not about achieving a certain standard; it's about enhancing what you naturally have.
