Four Easy Tips For Fuller Lips

Full lips never seem to go out of style. During the eighties, we saw celebrities like Kim Basinger with those desirable plump lips that women these days pay for.

Due to modern day innovations, you are able to replicate techniques, sometimes free, to achieve fuller lips that look all natural. Below I’ve listed some tips and techniques.

1.) First of all, a great lip plumper is a must. Try to avoid purchasing lip plumpers that contain dry ingredients like cinnamon. These lip plumpers are usually just temporary and tend to dry up your lips over time. The key to plump lips is keeping them hydrated. Drying out your lips would defeat the purpose.

2.) Drink lots of water to keep the skin and lips well hydrated. This keeps you internally hydrated. Ever notice how when you’re dehydrated (thirsty), your lips tend to “shrivel”?

3.) When applying your lip plumper, open your mouth as wide as you possibly can. I especially like to use this technique at night when I apply generous layers of lip plumping conditioner, so that I wake up with plumper lips. Try also using your fingers to spread your lips to get better penetration.

4.) You can also consider the use of a lip pump. They tend to plump up your lips for a few hours after use. Word to the wise on lip pumps: Do not get overzealous with them, as you will most assuredly end up with bruised lips or blood blisters.

Start out very slow with these if you choose to use one. Lip pumps use a suction to draw fluids to the region of suction on the lips. It is often used on photo shoot sets for models who want temporary plump lips.
