Collagen injections are instant, but risky and painful way of making the lips appear larger. Most types of beauty serums or creams are expensive and stop working once you stop using them. Most of the achieved results will gradually disappear in time, sometimes leaving the recipient worse off than before the procedure. This can lead to a vicious cycle of spending lots of money and time at the doctor.
Lip liner can be used in many different ways to give your lips a new and fresh look. Not all of us are blessed with big luscious lips like Angelina Jolie, but genetics doesn't have to be an opposing factor when it comes to beauty. Almost any facial flaw or imperfection can be perfected by beauty techniques and a bit of makeup know-how.
Small lips can be plumped up by adding a touch of lip gloss, preferably a lip gloss with a wet look works especially well. Gloss makes lips more noticeable by giving them a wet and shiny, more defined look. Add to this look by first tracing around your lips with a lip liner that is a few shades darker than your lip gloss. For those of us with very thin lips, lip liner should be applied so that it lines the outside of your lips. You can keep applying lip liner on top of the line you just made until your lips appear as full as you desire. Using your finger, blend the lip liner into the color on your lips, unless you happen to enjoy looking like a circus clown.
Dark opaque lipstick will make even the most luscious pair of lips appear smaller, so if you have to use a dark lipstick, use a shade that is sheer. Sheer color lipstick works on the same principle as lip gloss; it draws attention to your lips as it gives them a splash of color without overpowering the eye. Sheer lip gloss can be worn over an opaque lipstick to give a lighter and shimmering effect. The all day wear lipstick made by Cover Girl with a sheer gloss over it has a nice and smooth long-lasting effect.
