Some hot lip tips from Andrea Claire, senior makeup artist with FACE atelier (clients include Alanis Morissette, The Veronicas, and Kelly Rowan)
· If you don’t want your lips to be the first thing people see, limit your use of gloss! Go for a neutral lip shade such as FACE atelier’s Wheat or Latte lipstick.
· For fuller lips, stretch your lips (aka super fake smile )when applying your lip color as this will fill color into every nook and give a plumper look. Top your lip with a reflective lip glaze such as FACE atelier’s Ice.
· To exaggerate lips, mix a dash of cayenne pepper into your gloss. This natural warming effect will temporarily rush the blood to the surface therefore plumping.
Anyone have any hot lip tips??? Please share them here!

cayenne pepper? wow really? I haven’t heard about doing this and I’m not sure I want to give it a try
Isn’t it better to use cinammon, same plumping effect, sweeter taste?
