Full, well-defined lips are a trend that never goes out of style. And with a few makeup techniques, it’s more than possible to create the illusion of larger, fuller lips without the need for invasive procedures.
Step by step guide to creating larger lips
1. Lip preparation
– Exfoliation: start by exfoliating your lips to remove dead skin cells and leave the surface smooth and free of raised skin. You can use a lip scrub to perform this step
– Moisturizing: apply a lip moisturizer to keep your lips soft and prevent lipstick from cracking.
2. Lip contouring
– Choosing a lip liner: use a lip liner that is one shade darker than your natural lip color or the lipstick you are going to use. We suggest you use LipMix Lip Pencil to achieve this effect.
– Drawing the contour: start by drawing an “X” on your Cupid’s bow. Then, outline your lips following their natural line, but slightly outside of it to create the illusion of larger lips. Be careful not to overdo it and keep it looking natural.
3. Filling in with lipstick
– Applying Creamy Matte Liquid Lipstick: fill in your lips with Creamy Matte Liquid Lipstick. Its creamy formula and matte finish provide even, long-lasting coverage. Apply a thin layer and, if necessary, add a second layer to intensify the color.
4. Finishing
– Final touch: if you want an even more voluminous effect, apply a clear or glittery gloss over the lipstick. This will give a shiny finish and enhance the feeling of full lips.
