How To Plump Your Lips? 4 Makeup Tricks That Are Easy to Repeat
The trend on natural makeup grows bigger every season. Radiant skin, adorable blush, nude eye makeup, and beautiful voluminous lips. Wonder how to get plump lips without injections and fillers? Today we are going to share some cool and effective tips.
Volumizing Lip Gloss
The easiest and most popular way is to use lip gloss. Due to the glossy finish, it makes the lips visually more voluminous and, as a pleasant bonus, you can get additional effects.
For example, OK Beauty Prep & Plump moisturizing balm intensively cares for the delicate skin of the lips and gives a natural tint. The hyaluronic acid in the formula visibly softens and regenerates the skin. Therefore, you can solve several problems at once: eliminate flaking, make lips smoother, and create a light natural makeup.
Any gloss can be used in three ways: independently, to prepare lips for a colored coating, or to apply over lipstick to add volume. In any of these cases the lips will become visually larger thanks to the reflective effect of the glossy finish.
We can reassure those who are afraid that such products have thick coating. Modern glosses with new formula have an almost weightless texture, and our balm has just that. It is barely felt on the lips and does not leave an unpleasant sticky feeling.
Lip pencil as a plumper
Another way to visually enlarge lips is the well-known trick with a pencil. Makeup artists have been using this technique for many years, so why not borrow it for everyday makeup too?
To visually enlarge the lips with a pencil it is enough to apply it half a millimeter outside the contour. Do not be afraid that it will catch the eye, the main thing here is not to overdo it. If you enlarge your lips just a little, the effect will be noticeable, but at the same time, it will look as natural as possible.
Sometimes makeup artists recommend using lipstick for lip plumping, but often a pencil can easily replace it. At the same time, it should have a soft, creamy texture, like the OK Beauty Color Salute pencils with a waterproof formula. Due to it, it will be easy both to outline the contour and to fill the entire surface of the lips or shade it with just a couple of movements.
Another important point: pay a little more attention to the corners of the lips. Very often the lips look smaller only because the corners are not sufficiently painted, which greatly conceals the volume. Next time you apply the pencil, pay attention to the corners.
Lip plump with pencil and gloss
The next method is for those who want the maximum effect of lip plumping. For even more noticeable lip volume, try to combine the two above-mentioned methods and use the lip gloss in combination with the lip pencil.
You need to do the following steps:
• Outline the contour of the lips with a pencil, going slightly beyond their borders;
• Draw several vertical lines from the outline to the center;
• Fill the entire surface with light movements and gently blend the product;
• Apply a moisturizing gloss on top, with an accent on the central part of the lips.
The mirror-glossy finish will make the lips visually smoother and more voluminous, and the caring ingredients in the Prep & Plump balm will keep delicate skin from drying out throughout the day.
