How to make your lips look FULLER

Beautiful, full lips are a must with any makeup look...whether it be a nude look, smokey eye look, or a pin up look.



Here's how to get fuller lips:


1) The key to get full lips is a lip liner. A lip liner will make your lips look more defined, more sculpted, and more fuller.

** TIP: Try staying away from dark shades...they make your lips look smaller. Instead, head for a light shade.


2) Then try using a lipstick or some chapstick to make lips look fuller and moisturized.

**TIP: Try using a toothbrush, and exfoliate your lips with an olive oil and sugar scrub. This will make your lips softer, and add a temporary plump to your lips.


And that's it! Here is a simple rule:

-Think of pants. White pants make things look bigger; black pants make things look slimmer. Same thing with makeup; light shades will make things bigger; darker shades...mores slimmer.

Ta da! Hope this helps!

Ace of the Face: Lips



A bold red? Or a light nude? Or maybe a fushcia?

Whatever it is, this "guide" is going to help you find your perfect lip color shades...that are only AFFORDABLE, DRUGSTORE products.

This little "series" of the Ace of the Face, is inspired by Allure's Best of Beauty List. Except, this is all drugstore products...that won't break the bank!



LIPSTICK: RED


Loreal Color Riche Lipstick

The classic red, that's true, beautiful and ... gorgeous actually. Red lipstick is great for some time to be bold, or it can be your classic everyday lipstick too!



LIPSTICK: PINK


Cover Girl Lip Perfection Lip Color in Delight

This is an absolutely gorgeous color! It's a beautiful, rosy kind of pink, and it's the perfect compliment of color...not too bold, not too boring...just right.



LIPSTICK: NUDE


NYX lipstick in Summer Love

A great lipstick...in a bargain price. This is your perfect deal for beautiful, nude lips. The color is true, and it applies like a department store price.
P.S. (a little tip) try using a nude LIPLINER to first give your lips a little definition, then for color add the lipstick.



LIPSTICK: NUDE (for darker skin tones)


Cover Girl Queen Lip Color in Bronze Goddess

This color is bee-tea-ful on darker skin tones! It doesn't look tacky, and it adds a modern, feminine touch to your lips. (This is also the one that Allure has chosen(: )



LIPSTICK: DARK


Loreal Color Riche Divine Wine

The color riche series is amazing for rich, beautiful, bold colors. This lipcolor has it all...the color is the REAL color, it's moisturizing, and the perfect shade of the dark wine.



LIPSTICK: SHEER


Boots. No 7 Sheer Temptation Lipstick (attract is shown above)

I lovee this lipstick! If your looking for a natural, sheer lipstick ,but with moderate color this is it. It hydrates your lips, it's much like a tinted lip balm, except it has more color pigmentation.



LIPGLOSS



Jordana Pretty Shine Luxury Lip Gloss

This is my mom's and mine favorite lip gloss. We have used other department lip glosses and this, and we don't quite see the difference. This is your perfect, cheap, RICH color, gorgeous applications, ...it's perfect!




LIP STAIN


Cover Girl Outlast Lip Stain

Beautifulll lipstain! This is perfect for the ones who want some color to their lips in their busy lifestyles. The color lasts for a good amount of time, and there is such a HUGEEE selection of colors..so you can find your perfect one.


LIP BALM


Soft Lips Lip Balm

Smells great, great hydration, and leaves your lips soft and pretty(:



TINTED LIP BALM

Burt Bees Tinted Lip Balm

Such a gorgeous compliment! The colors are beautiful, and they had only a splash of color. So for the ones that don't want such a bold look, this one is for you.


And that's all! I hope this maybe helped you guys find your perfect fit for your lip colors.
