Want a plump pout without spending money on lip fillers? Here are 5 ways to get voluptuous lips without cosmetic surgery or injections.
1. First, exfoliate your lips.
Dry, chapped lips are not attractive, and they’re definitely not plump. Take a moment to exfoliate your lips weekly to smooth them, and rid them of any dead skin. Clinique sells amazing little 2 in 1 lip balm and scrubs. For a DIY option, mix brown sugar with honey and scrub your lips right at home without spending a penny.
2. Hydrate!
Don’t forget that you need to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. If you’re dehydrated, your lips will look and feel dehydrated, too.
3. Line your lips and fill them in with gloss.
Big lips are in, so it’s no surprise Kylie Jenner’s lip kits have been selling like hot cakes. Each kit includes 1 matte liquid lipstick and 1 pencil lip liner. Use the liner to line your lips a little fuller than your natural lip shape, but not enough to make you appear clown like!
4. Use Murad’s Lip Formula.
For $24 Murad sells a lip serum with collagen to reduce the appearance of lines and give you those full lips.
5. Try a lip plumping treatment.
93% of people said that after trying the Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme gloss they noticed their lips looked fuller. You can buy this gloss at Sephora for $28.
