How to Get Fuller-Looking Lips With Liner and Gloss

A little lip liner and a touch of gloss can make your lips look fuller and more defined in under two minutes. Here is the technique.

Step by step

1. Prep. Make sure your lips are smooth and not slippery. Blot any balm.
2. Line just on your natural edge. Trace your lip line, staying right on it, especially at the Cupid's bow and the center of the bottom lip.
3. Blend inward. Lightly fill the outer part of your lips with the liner and blend it toward the center with your fingertip.
4. Add gloss to the center. Apply gloss across your lips, with a little extra in the center of the bottom lip. Shine catches the light and gives a fuller look.

Choosing your shades

• For a natural effect, choose a liner close to your lip color and a sheer gloss.
• For more drama, choose a slightly deeper liner and a tinted gloss.

Tips

• Do not go far outside your natural lip line: it is easy to spot in daylight.
• Reapply gloss during the day; the liner underneath helps keep the shape.
