The lips are a part of the face that women take into great consideration: where volume is not exactly one of the peculiar qualities, it can be remedied with specific products that make the naturally plumped mouth, leaving at the same time a pleasant overview. Lipsticks, lip glosses and even serums are just a few that have a good volumizing effect.
Volumize but with style
A lipstick or lip gloss embellishes the mouth in many different ways: light, dark, purely summer and bright colors or warm colors for autumn and winter; whatever the basic style, the watchword is “flesh out”. For this purpose, a plumper for fuller lips, which has a gloss or covering effect, will contain highly moisturizing elements which alone will give a healthier appearance to the mouth. Among the main elements we find the natural ones that are usually part of the human connective system: the collagen and hyaluronic acid. The first is an indispensable protein to promote cell regeneration right into the deepest layers of the dermis, while the second is the one that literally “holds” the water particles at the surface level. The result is rich and plump lips with a single stroke of lip gloss or lipstick.
But there are also dedicated serums, transparent and that act as a light cream: here the vitamin complexes literally nourish the lips and are usually applied as a base for any other lipstick. In order to better penetrate deeply, just like you would for a facial skin product, they go massage with two fingers both on the lower lip and on the upper one.
There are even more complete formulations that even contain extracts of chilli, mint, bee venom and ginger that intervene on the microcirculation to make the lips even more plumped.
Exfoliation as a synergistic method
To ensure cellular reproduction that supports the fullness of the lips, in synergy with these volumizing treatments, you can also add a exfoliation phase. The scrub, therefore, is not only used on the skin to support cell regeneration but also on the lips. Homemade methods such as packs of oils and sugar that effectively remove dead skin cells; subsequently, they are softened with a simple cocoa butter. In some cases it is also possible to add baking soda, but the best thing to do is to balance perfectly scrub with hydration, especially if you are trying to “renew” the superficial layer of lips that are particularly dry or that tend to crack easily.
Use… a trick
Sometimes, it is enough to plump thin lips make them up correctly, for example, starting with a pencil to trace the outlines to make them sharper. Furthermore, the pencil lipstick constitutes a further base, especially in nude tones, on which to then apply the actual color which, the richer it will be, the greater sense of depth it will give. The ideal would be to also use two different contrasting tones without ever straying too far from the contour pencil, to give the whole a neat appearance from a chromatic point of view.
On the other hand, to make the lips appear “fuller”, excesses must be avoided which are the very opposite of the natural effect: bright red is a beautiful color that certainly gives depth, but there are women on whom a pink or violet effect has a better, and no less plumping effect, if applied with care .
All these tools, used together and alternated during the day, are certainly effective and can be customized to the maximum to give each woman the right degree of volumization she wants according to the occasion.
