Every girl wants to have the perfect pout – whether it’s large and luscious like Angelina Jolie's, or perky and trim like Marylin Monroe's. So you might be wondering: how do celebs achieve such beautiful looks and pull them off so naturally? It's not nearly as hard as you think, especially with the variety of treatments available these days.
Here are the five ways to achieve the perfect pout:
1. Use the right filler – there’s a wide range of fillers available on the market and it’s up to the professional to work out which one is right for you. Let your doctor know what you want from the procedure (big lips or just slightly plumper) and they should be able to give you guidance and options regarding the correct filler for you.
2. Find a good doctor – we all love a bargain, but when it comes to something like lip fillers, you should never pick your clinic on price alone. If the price seems too good to be true, that’s because it probably is. Make sure that you do your research, read reviews and ask for referrals. A bad batch of lip fillers will do nothing for you pouting potential!
3. Get the correct dosage – while it may be tempting to go and get the biggest lips possible, you need to think about what will work with your facial structure and overall image. If you work in a serious line of work, for example, you probably shouldn’t walk around with a pair of lips that belong on the set of love island. Think about what works for you and you’ll be on the path to pouting success.
4. Choose which lip – just because they’re a pair, it doesn’t mean that you have to get both lips done. Maybe it’s just your top lip that needs a bit more ‘oomph’ or it could be the bottom. Take a look at your lips and work out what lip needs what dosage (if any). The last thing you want to do is over-do it!
5. Keep it natural – while you’re looking for plumper lips, you don’t want to look like a fish in photos, so try and keep your lips looking as natural as possible. Start off with small doses and then get them topped up if you want more volume. Going in with high doses is a dangerous game as they cannot be reversed, and you will have to wait months for them to dissolve.
