Lip augmentation: permanent makeup and more

In fairness, it must be said that you can visually enlarge your lips without “beauty injections”, especially since the fashion for naturalness is gaining momentum and even ardent fans of fillers are gradually abandoning injections in favor of natural lip volume. However, if the natural contour does not suit you for one reason or another, it can always be corrected by more delicate methods - from competent care to permanent makeup. And so, what is needed to visually enlarge the lips?

Proper Care

Just exfoliate your lips - this area needs exfoliation no less than the skin of the face. Peeling and dry crusts give the lips an untidy look, hiding their volume. Experts recommend a lip scrub or home remedies, such as gently massaging your lips with a toothbrush or washcloth before bed, followed by a lip balm.

Makeup hacks

The secret of professional makeup artists: draw a contour with a pencil to match the lipstick, stepping back 1, maximum 2 millimeters from your natural one. It is important to maintain the natural shape of the lips. After completing the make-up, apply a little highlighter in the dimple above the upper lip - this will make the upper lip a little plumper.

Another life hack: repeat the ombre effect on the lips, armed with two lipsticks: the lighter one is recommended to cover the middle of the lips, and the darker one is the area closer to the contour. After applying lipstick, the borders between the colors are gently shaded with a brush, cotton swab or even a finger - “kissed” lips are still in fashion.

3 D - effects in permanent make- up

Can lips be enlarged with permanent makeup? Significantly - no, because permanent makeup is not a full replacement for fillers based on hyaluronic acid. But you can solve other problems, somehow: to form a clear contour, make the shade of the lips deeper and more saturated, remove light areas in the corners of the lips. Taken together, this provides a slight magnification effect. Areas that previously merged with the skin are highlighted after the procedure.

To visually increase the volume of the lips, the master can turn to the 3D technique, which combines two techniques: contouring and shading. Compared to other methods, it is the most difficult, it takes more time, but the result is excellent. The 3D effect is achieved by mixing several pigments that are in harmony with the skin tone.
