As we age, our lips naturally become thinner and less full due to a decrease in collagen and elastin production. These key proteins provide elasticity and structure to the skin, and as we get older, our bodies produce less of them, leading to a loss of firmness and volume in the lips.
Makeup artist Katey Denno, known for working with celebrities like Amanda Seyfried and Sadie Sink, shared some simple tips for creating the appearance of fuller lips without the need for fillers. In a recent Instagram video, Denno demonstrated her lip routine, showcasing how she keeps her lips looking plump at almost 50 years old.
Denno began by applying Aora’s solid lip serum in the nude pink shade “Rosa.” This hydrating lip product leaves a glossy finish, emphasizing the importance of starting with a moisturizing base to enhance the fullness of the lips. She then used a lip liner from Mob Beauty to accentuate her cupid’s bow and define the shape of her lips, focusing on natural shades and enhancing the natural symmetry of her lips.
By following Denno’s tips and using hydrating lip products and lip liners in natural shades, you can create the illusion of fuller lips without the need for injections. Embrace your natural lip shape and enhance it with these simple tricks to achieve a plump and youthful appearance.
