Do you have small lips?
I do.
And since I (very stupidly) vowed I would never get any kind of plastic surgery or ‘work’ done to my body in an effort to teach my daughter to love herself inside and out, lip injections are completely out of the question for me.
Which is why I love YouTube.
Because without tutorials like the ones I’m about to share with you, I would have no idea how to get bigger lips, which would make it would be pretty hard to convince the rest of the world I even have a mouth, you know?
I’ve included 5 of my favorite lip enhancing tutorials below, each of which have taught me how to get bigger lips naturally by using makeup and various other household items I never would have even considered. And for those of you who need a more extreme solution, check out the lip plumper Michelle Phan recommends. It might be worth a shot!
