Over-Lining Lips...

We get it.
Most girls could go for a liiiiiitle bit of a larger lip.

Thanks Kylie Jenner.

But here is the thing...
Every tutorial I've looked at to do the 
ever-so-popular
Kylie Jenner lip 
always ends up looking like a clown.

Now,
maybe it's just me?

But...there has to be an easier way to make it look a little more natural.
Right?

Right.

The secret.

Only
Use
Lip
Liner

Not liner and lipstick.
Not just a matte lipstick.

Just. Lip. Liner.
I used this cheap-o kind from Sallys. 
It does the job.
The key to picking a good lip liner for over-lining?
Just make sure it is matte.
BAM!


Step 1
Line a little bit above your natural cupids bow + a little below your natural lip line on your bottom lip.

Step 2
Connect with the corners of your lips. Don't go too far away from your natural lip line!
The closer you get to the corners, the closer you need to be to your lips.

Step 3
Fill in your upper lip with liner.
I use the pencil at an angle to get a sheer-full coverage. If you do it by the tip,  you aren't going to get a smooth coverage.

Step 4
Repeat step 3 on your bottom lip!


And there you have it!

A fuller thicker lip without looking like a total clown.

Enjoy!
