Have you ever wanted fuller lips? Or even considered getting lip injections, but the thought of that just scares you to death? Believe me, I know it’s hard not to notice all the Instagram models with their full lips and perfect pout while scrolling through your feed.

Beauty is directly associated with youth. When we’re young, we naturally have a full face, what we sometimes hear people refer to as ‘baby face’ and full lips and as we age, we naturally lose that youthful volume in those areas and feel the pressure to keep everything nice and full.

But how much of what we see on our Instagram feed is even natural? Some people are just blessed with the perfect pout, but there are also a lot of Instagram bloggers who feel the pressure to look ‘perfect’ and give in to the obsession by undergoing some cosmetic procedure like lip injections to get that desired look.

Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with lip injections if that is your choice but some of us would prefer to achieve the look with a lot less torture.

If the thought of sticking a needle in your lips makes you want to faint then fear not as there are natural ways that can give you the appearance of a fuller pout without the pain.

1. Use a Sugar Lip Scrub

The reason you want to start off with a lip scrub is because that is the first step in preparing your lips for the perfect pout. You have to make sure that you have a good base or foundation to start with.

Using a lip scrub helps to remove the dead skin and stimulate the lips that will give you an immediate burst and flush of color to your lips.

You can even use a lip brush to maximize your scrubbing results and to ensure that all dead skin is removed.

2. Try a Lip Plumping Lipstick

Luckily, the beauty industry have been giving us great products to help achieve fuller lips without the abrasive procedure. For instance, you can now find lipsticks that stimulate your lips making them appear more fuller. Buxom Cosmetics has a wide range of lip plumping lipsticks, lip stains and lip glosses that you can choose from.

This is personally one of my favorite brands to use when it comes to lip plumping lipsticks but there are also other brands that offer the same thing like L’Oreal.

3. Gloss It Up

Wearing a lip plumping lip gloss is probably one of the easiest ways to to give the effect of a fuller pout. I personally love the tingling sensations that I feel because that’s how I know that it’s working.

.e.l.f Cosmetics offers one of the more affordable lip plumping glosses that I like to carry around in my purse. Sparkling Rose is one of my favorite shades to wear.

If you’re looking for a bit more extreme sensation then the TooFaced Lip Injection is my go-to lip plumping gloss. This stuff works amazing and I love to just wear it by itself.

4. Try a Lip Plumper Device

Lip plumping devices are a an excellent way to temporarily give you the effect of a fuller looking pout without all the fillers. Lip plumping devices typically work by doing a pulsating suction on your lips for a few minutes at a time so as to gradually improve the size of your lips.

You can try this electric lip plumper from Amazon for less than $35.

  1. Sugar lip scrubs and moisturizers seem to really work for me . I get self conscious since I live in a pretty hot dry climate , so its easy to get chapped or dry lips. Need to try one of those lip plumping lipsticks though

    1. Exfoliating the lips are a great way to instantly give the appearance of fuller lips, plus they are a lot cheaper on the pocket so that’s a yes for me!I think extremely hot and extremely cold climates are huge contributors to dry skin and chapped lips so I agree.
