Make your own lip plumper. Purchase a small bottle of cinnamon leaf oil and some pure petroluem jelly such as Vaseline. Mix together a small scoop of the petroleum jelly with two drops of cinnamon leaf oil. Apply a tiny amount to the edge of your lip and wait 10 minutes to see if you have any allergic reaction. If not, apply the mixture over your bare lips.

Wait for your lips to start tingling. The cinnamon oil brings blood to the surface of your lips, making them plumper for up to two hours. Do not use more than two drops of oil or your lips may burn. Apply lipstick on top of the mixture and reapply as necessary.
