The Instantly Poutier Lip Trick

So you’ve taken all the right lip-volumising steps; a lip plumper, a pale lippie, shimmer in the middle of your mouth, but it would still be nice if your pout could look a little poutier …


Wish granted! Simply take a flat-edged liner brush, dip it in a matte brown shadow (several shades darker than your natural skintone), and etch it right below your lower lip line. All it needs to be is about half a centimetre long – that’s enough to create the illusion of shadowing, which is exactly what you’d get if you had naturally larger lips. Finally, just soften any hard edges with a cotton bud.
