Most women love
the idea of having plump full lips and there are definitely a variety of
cosmetic injections that we offer here at Pinewood that can assist you with the
plumping up of your pout. We offer hyaluronic
acid injections which provide a safe temporary solution towards improving this
aesthetic dilemma.
However before
you consider getting lip injections to address the thinning of the lip tissue
that sometimes comes with aging, hormonal changes in the body or cosmetic
dental work, there are some things you can do to plump up your lips naturally.
Exfoliate Your Lips Daily
Exfoliating your
lips daily will make them smooth, hydrated and bring the blood to the surface
of the tissue and plump them up. One of the easiest plumping treatments to
concoct yourself at home is a simple scrub made with olive oil and sugar. Simply scrub your lips with this mixture
every morning before you put on your lipstick.
Some people use a
toothbrush, dedicated to lip brushing, for this purpose. Even if you scrub
without the sugar and olive oil mix, you will still get results. For a less messy scrub you can also use
coconut oil, instead of the coconut oil.
Fake Out Lip Size With Lip Liner
Find a neutral
shade of lip liner that is a similar shade to your lip colour and outline your
entire lip line outside the line to give the illusion of larger lips. Then follow the line with your regular
lipstick colour.
If you want to exaggerate
your pout even further, line the middle bottom part of your lip with a darker
shade of liner and highlight your cupid’s bow at the top with a bit of white
pencil or white gloss.
Smoothing lip
gloss in light pinks, peaches and nude shades is recommended as that creates
the illusion of larger lips.
Make a Natural
Lip Plumper
Cinnamon and/or
is a common ingredient in many lip plumpers and you can make your own by adding
just one drop of cinnamon oil to a small pot of gloss and smearing it over your
lips. It works by increasing the circulation
of blood flow to your lips.
Whistle a Happy Tune
You can tone your
lips and make the stronger by whisting for three to four minutes a day. This
builds up the surrounding muscles in your pout.
