Every girl wants full, pouty lips but we are not all born that way. There are lipstick techniques to help achieve this look but another alternative is a lip plumper. Cosmetic companies have heard your prayers and made several products to help get plump lips. However the most beneficial products come with a hefty price tag as well.
For a fraction of the cost, you can receive the same benefits with the following “recipe” for a lip plumper. So get out your teaspoons and measuring cups…lets make some cosmetics!
Ingredients:
- Small jar with lid
- Vaseline
- Bee’s wax or Chapstick
- Ground Ginger
- Ground Cayenne or Red Pepper
- Peppermint Extract
Take about a teaspoon of Vaseline and mix it with half a teaspoon of bee’s wax (or use two tubes of Chapstick). Start with small amounts and mix the ginger and cayenne. These products will cause a stinging sensation but really helps with the plumping affect. Add one to two drops of the Peppermint Extract. The peppermint gives the gloss a cool and fresh flavor. But don’t use too much!
Keeping this product fresh will be a factor but with the right purchase of the small jar, you should be fine.
