The very simple way to get fuller lips without expensive products

Not all of us were blessed with the kind of genetics that would give us a 24/7 Angelina Jolie pout.

Unfortunately some of us were left a little lacking when it came to the full lip department. Which is absolutely fine, except that bold lips are having something of a beauty moment.

Everywhere you look these days people are flashing us their fabulous super sized pouts at us and we can’t help but want to jump on the bandwagon from time to time. If you’re feeling a bit jealous of Kylie and the likes, then all you need are these three easy steps.

Prep your skin

Dry lips will look flat and dull, so just like you would with your skin, you need to scrubs. Grab a toothbrush or a specific lip scrubs and away you go. Make sure you apply plenty of your favourite moisturising balm afterwards.

Nudes

Smaller lips can look smaller when you wear darker colours, which is a shame because winter and dark berry lipstick shades are a given. However, for full lips use a nude pencil and line your lips slightly beyond their natural edges. Make the line more pronounced if need be and apply a creamy lipstick in a similar shade.

Strategic Sparkle

Use a highlighter, or shimmery shadow on your Cupid’s bow to add some depth to your lips. Follow up with a shiny neutral gloss just in the middle top and bottom lips.
