What to do if your lips are thick and ugly

Lips are an important part of a person's facial features. Whether the lips are beautiful can most directly reflect whether a person's appearance is good-looking. In reality, many people have certain problems with their lips, such as lips that are too big or too small, thick lips, thin lips, upturned upper lip, drooping corners of the mouth, or straight lips. So, what should you do if your lips are thick and ugly or if your lips have the above problems? Let me give you a detailed introduction below!

1. Big lips

You can use concealer to apply on your lips, focusing on the edges of your lips, and then set with powder. Use a lip liner to draw the ideal lip contour along the inside of the lip shape. The contour lines of the upper and lower edges, left and right lip corners should be retracted inward to make the lips thinner and narrower. Finally, use dark lipstick to apply on your lips to make the overly large lips appear narrower.

2. Small lips

When drawing the outline with a lip liner, you can draw the lip line slightly beyond the lip shape. The outline of the upper and lower lip corners can be extended outward to make the lips wider and thicker. The lip line at the corners of the lips can be slightly widened and the color slightly darker. For this type of lip shape, it is suitable to choose light-colored or glossy lipstick to make small lips look fuller.

3. Thick lips

The base is to choose a color slightly darker than the original lip color to darken the outline of the lips, and then fix it with powder. Use a dark lip liner to draw the ideal lip shape along the corners of the lips, ensuring the length of the lips and drawing the lip line based on their inner contour. For this type of lip shape, it is better to choose cooler, slightly darker lipstick, and avoid using lipstick with shiny gloss.

4. Thin lips

Use a light-colored lip liner to expand the outline of the lips outward. Both the upper and lower lip lines can extend beyond the original lip shape. Then choose a light-colored lipstick to apply on your lips, or choose a lipstick with a fluorescent or pearlescent effect. Pay attention to adding some brighter lip gloss to the middle of the upper and lower lips. This will make your lips appear more three-dimensional and fuller.

5. Upturned upper lip

When applying foundation, you can choose a foundation that is slightly darker than the basic base color for the upper lip. For example, you can use a brown foundation in the middle of the lips to deepen the skin tone. When drawing the lip line, the lip peak should not be drawn too high, but should extend naturally towards the corners of the mouth. The upper and lower contour lines in the middle of the lips should be drawn as straight as possible, and the contour lines at the corners of the lips can be raised a little. Note that the color at the corners of the lower lip should be appropriately deepened. In terms of the overall lip makeup effect, the lower lip should be the focus to reduce the upturned feeling of the upper lip.

6. Drooping corners of mouth

First, apply concealer around the outline of the lips, especially the corners of the lips, and then use a lip liner to outline the contour, changing the original contour of the lip corners and making the lip corners slightly upturned. Finally, use bright colors to modify the shadow on the extension line of the drooping corners of the mouth to visually weaken the sense of the drooping lines of the corners of the mouth. When drawing the lip line, the lip peak should be slightly lowered, the corners of the upper lip can be slightly upturned, and the width of the lower lip should exceed the upper lip to achieve the effect of lifting the corners of the mouth. The lipstick color in the middle of the lip should be slightly lighter and brighter than the lip color. This will help focus people's vision on the middle of the lips.

7. Straight lips

First, use concealer to cover the original lip shape, fix it with powder, and then use lip liner to outline the ideal lip shape. When drawing the upper lip line, you should draw a clear lip peak. The lower lip should be drawn into a boat-bottom shape or a rounded shape. The color of the lip line should be slightly darker than the selected lipstick color.
