How to Get Angelina Jolie's Lips

Angelina Jolie is as well known for her lips as she is for her acting. Those full and gorgeous lips are something that many woman wants, and for some that means seeing a plastic surgeon. But you can get Angelina Jolie's lips at home, without using such drastic measures.

Difficulty: Challenging

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Washcloth or towel
• Lip plumper
• Flesh-toned lip liner
• Light colored lipstick
• Blotting paper or tissue

1. Rub a damp washcloth or towel vigorously across your lips to exfoliate them and eliminate any dead skin. You can also use an exfoliating cream from the drugstore.

2. Cover your lips with a lip plumper available from the beauty shop or drugstore. The lip plumper will give your lips that are full and pouty.

3. Outline your lips with a flesh-toned lip liner. This should be similar to your own skin tone, which will help your new lips blend into your own look.

4. Fill in your lips with a pale lip color such as pink or nude. Angelina Jolie uses paler colors to emphasize her oversized lips.

5. Use blotting paper or a tissue to remove any excess lipstick. This prevents lipstick from spreading across your face and keeps your new lips from looking amateurish.

Tips & Warnings

• You can also use cinnamon oil or cayenne pepper instead of an expensive plumper. Simply apply a small amount to your lips to increase the blood flow.
• If you don't like color, use a clear lip gloss over the plumper. Even Angelina Jolie skips the color every once and awhile.
• Some lip plumpers are available in specific shades so you don't need the lipstick.
• You can pick a bright red color if you want to increase your sex appeal. Angelina Jolie often uses a darker red shade for a particularly dramatic look.
• Try new products at home before wearing them out. You never know when you might have an allergic reaction to that hot new lip plumper.

on 4/1/2009 I found this new site, www.isabellapelle.com, that offers lip plumping balms, and lip growth serums. They are available in different shades, and the pricing is good even in this recession. My personal favorite is that they offer free shipping. Hope this helps for all that do not want to be home chemists. lol ;)
