CHANNEL THAT PERFECT POUT

Do you secretly wish for those Angelina Jolie-esque lips? Well, just go for it. Trust me you’re not the only one coveting for this.

Did you know that in days prior to the store-bought lipgloss with plumpers, women would rub chillies on their lips for instant plumping? This is a secret my friend’s grandmother (who in her generation was an authority on grooming tips) shared with us recently. Incidentally, our new age lip plumpers often use Capsaicin, the substance that gives hot peppers their spicy edge.

As Delhi-based makeup artist Anu Kaushik shares her make-up tips, “Fuller lips are sexy and thanks to lip plumpers/make up tricks, it’s possible to achieve pouty lips without botox/filler injections!”

Here’s Anu’s 5-step guide for the perfect pout:

Step 1: You need to start with applying concealer/foundation to erase natural shape. We suggest M.A.C Mineralize Concealer that blends easily while moistursing. Or you could also try Benefit Cosmetics Erase Paste.

Step 2: Follow that up by using a flesh tone pencil to reshape lip-line just outside of your natural upper & bottom lip-line. We recommend M.A.C Naked Liner in Light Neutral or Inglot Soft Precision Lipliner in No 74.

Step 3: Fill in the lips with lip liner pencil. Try the ones from Make Up For Ever Aqua Lip Waterproof Lipliner or Smashbox Always Sharp Lip Liner.

Step 4: Dab some concealer at the centre of lower and upper lips and apply lipstick. The lip shade will mix with concealer making the centre of the lips lighter – giving an illusion of fuller lips.

Step 5: Highlight the centre with plumping lip gloss or a highlighter. A single slick of Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker can work wonders and make your lips look instantly lush. Pro Tip: To keep the look natural and not deliberate, stick to sheer shades of lipstick/lip stains/lip tints.
