Who needs a lip kit when you’ve got a spice rack? Ok, we’re joking but there’s also a bit of truth to this. It turns out, there are many natural ways to exchange your lips without turning to chemical-based solutions. Let’s explore some all-natural ways worth trying.
The Cinnamon Plump
Cinnamon is a great natural lip plumper. This spice gently irritates the skin, causing a slight swelling effect that makes lips appear fuller. Create a DIY lip plumper by mixing a drop of cinnamon essential oil with a bit of your favorite lip balm or gloss. Apply it to your lips and feel the tingle as it works its magic.
Exfoliate for Fullness
Gentle exfoliation can remove dead skin cells, improving blood circulation and making your lips appear naturally fuller. Create a DIY lip scrub using equal parts sugar and coconut oil, with a drop of peppermint essential oil for a refreshing tingle. Gently massage this mixture onto your lips, then rinse off and apply a moisturizer to lock in the effect.
Hydration Station
Sometimes, the secret to plumper lips is simply keeping them well-hydrated. Dry, chapped lips can appear thinner and less defined. Make a habit of drinking plenty of water throughout the day. For an extra boost, try a homemade lip mask using natural humectants like honey or aloe vera.
