In order to keep your lips looking nice, you should do some scrubbing on a regular basis.

Active compounds from oils, improve circulation, which positively affects the firmness and optical enlargement of the lips. It is a great natural way to get a wow effect.

Lips should be carefully outlined, preferably slightly going beyond their natural outline, which will only enhance the desired effect. Don’t overdo it though, because instead of natural, full lips, you might end up with the complete opposite. Focus on carefully contouring the Cupid’s bow and the center of the lower lip. Remember that nude shades have a magnifying effect. Also, the lipliner should be a bit darker than your natural lip color. You can also opt for a flesh-coloured model.
To make lips look bigger and fuller it is worth to use a highlighter and a bronzer, which when applied in a proper way not only cover up face imperfections, but also improve contour and emphasize assets of the lips. Instead of a highlighter you can also use a white crayon. The highlighter should be applied on the Cupid’s bow, and the crayon should be applied under the lower lip. This way you will optically enlarge your lips, which will seem much fuller and nicely emphasized.
The easiest way to enlarge your lips is to paint them with a lip gloss, which thanks to special particles, will add a subtle enlarging effect to your lips.

It is also good to take care of the base under your lipstick – the best solution here is a primer, which not only prolongs the life of your makeup, but also brings out the depth of color from the lipstick and lipstick you use.
Recently it is very fashionable to paint your lips with two lipsticks of similar colors – one lighter and one slightly darker. This trick is to emphasize and enlarge lips. The lighter lipstick covers the whole lip and the darker one only covers the middle part of the mouth to get a spectacular effect.
