Many people would love to have full, plump lips but do not want to go through the risk of surgery or injections to get them. There are some tricks you can do at home in order to get fuller lips without any pain. Here are some tips to make your lips look plumper.
Keep your lips moisturized. Lips that have cracks and wrinkles tend to appear smaller. Lips that are well moisturized will look plump because all the little lines will be filled in. Using Vaseline, chapstick, or balm will help keep your lips hydrated and healthy.
Use honey and cinnamon to naturally plump up your lips. Honey softens and soothes dry lips. Cinnamon will slightly irritate your lips, causing them to swell a little. Cayenne pepper also works the same way cinnamon does. They both will plump up your lips but will only last a few hours.
Outline your lips using lip pencil in a shade that just a shade darker than your lipstick. Apply concealer on your lips to hide the natural line of your lips. Draw the line just outside your lip line to make your lips look fuller. Your lips should be moisturized before using a lip pencil, as dry lips can make the pencil skip.
Using a light shade of lipstick can also make your lips look plump. Choose a natural or nude shade, or a light pink, peach or beige shade of lipstick to make your lips appear fuller. Start in the center of your lips and go outward.
Applying lip gloss over your lipstick makes your lips look even bigger. It can help enhance thin lips and make them look luscious. Put a little all over your lips, and add just a dab in the center of the both lips. The middle is where your lips are the fullest and the extra gloss will reflect the light making them shine and look fuller.
