Hi everyone!!
Hope your all having an amazing day!! In last weeks video I showed you my easy 3 step method on how I overdraw/overline my lips to give the illusion of full plump lips - just like Kylie Jenner - but with no injections involved! I am totally obsessed with the grungy pink/brown that Kylie is always rocking - it also perfectly suits any skin tone!

How to Overdraw Your Lips
First you need to choose a nude/pink coloured lip liner that is a similar shade to your natural lips. You are going to use this pencil to extend the line of your natural lips. My pencil of choice for this is the Nyx Lip Liner Pencil in Nude. Some other great pencils nude pencils are the Rimmel Lip Liner in Natural and the Napoleon Perdis Lip Liner in Nude Awakening
Step 1 - Now that you have your pencil you first want to outline your lips on the skin directly above your cupids bow (the 'M' shape in the centre of your top lip). Do not leave a large gap between your natural lip line and your new 'false' lip line - you essentially want this line to be directly above your natural lip line. Only overdraw the middle third of the top lip - not the entire top lip - otherwise you will look like a fish! Now continue to line the rest of your top lip using your natural lip line as a guide, connecting your now much larger cupid's bow to your natural lip line.
Step 2 - Moving onto the bottom lip you basically need to repeat the above process. Outline the middle third of your lower lip on the skin directly underneath the lip, use small strokes to ensure a smooth line and take your time! Then once you have overdrawn the middle section you need to then continue to line the outer two thirds on your natural lip line. Trust me - even by this point you will be seeing a dramatic change in your lips! They should already look full and plum - but not fake!
Step 3 - Now you want to carefully fill in the entire lip area (included the new space you have just created). I recommend using a matte or demi matte lip colour for the most natural looking result - high gloss colours will reflect the corner edge on your cupids bow and will make your overdrawing look less natural.
