Method 1: Prepare
1, lip scrub. Dry skin and dead skin will make your lips look pale. In order to show the original color of the lips, you need to make a scrub to "wake up" the delicate skin of the lips, and the easiest way is to make a lip scrub with ready-made materials at hand. Let's see how to do it: mix a teaspoon of sugar with a teaspoon of honey (if there is no honey, you can use olive oil instead. )
Apply the mixture to your lips with your fingers and make a circular motion.
Rinse clean and repeat several times until all dead skin is removed.
2. Brush your lips with a toothbrush. If your lips are too thin to scrub, you might as well find a soft toothbrush to brush your lips. Wet the toothbrush with warm water, then gently brush your lips and circle for 20-30 seconds. After brushing, you will find that your lips are as soft as a newborn.
3. Apply lip balm. Now that you have cleaned up the dead skin on your lips, the next thing to do is to apply a layer of lip balm to your delicate lips to keep them moist and shiny. It is usually better to wear it before going to bed. When you wake up, you will find that your lips are very soft and pink. The following is a common natural lip oil: coconut oil.
apricot kernel oil
olive oil
jojoba oil
4. Lipstick can make lip color more natural. And pinching the face will make the improvement look better, and enhancing the blood circulation of the lips will also make the lips healthier and more natural. Lipstick can be bought in the store or made by yourself. Here are some ways to make lipstick: mix 1/4 teaspoons of cinnamon or red pepper with enough olive oil, apply it to your lips, and wash it off after five minutes.
Mix 5 drops of mint extract with 1/2 teaspoons of olive oil, apply it on your lips, and wash it off after 5 minutes.
Cut a small piece of fresh ginger, or cut half a jalapeno, and wipe the cut part on your lips for five minutes.
5, lip moisturizing. If you want to get a natural lip color, you must do a good job of moisturizing, because when you lack water, your lips will become pale and dry again, and a good natural lip balm will prevent this phenomenon. Of course, you can also make this yourself: dissolve one tablespoon of beeswax with three tablespoons of coconut oil;
Add a few drops of your favorite essential oil, such as peppermint oil (also effective for protecting lip color).
Pour the mixture into the used lip balm tube and make sure it has solidified before use.
Method 2: Add natural luster.
1, with red juice. After maintaining your lips according to the above steps, dip a cotton swab in a little red juice and apply the juice to your lips according to the lip line until it is dry. If you want something darker, apply a few more layers and then "seal" the juice on your mouth with lip balm. Any of the following juices will do: cherry juice.
Cranberry juice
grenadine juice
Strawberry juice (the color will be more pink)
Step 2 use beets. Cut a fresh beet, make sure the pulp inside is still bright, apply it to your lips, and squeeze it gently to release the juice. When the juice dries, you can apply a few more layers to make the color darker, and then "seal" the color with lip balm. Beet root is also a good lip gloss. Mix a little beetroot with enough olive oil to make a paste and apply it to your lips. After completely drying, wipe off the excess paste, and finally "seal" the color with lip balm.
Of course, canned beets can also be used, but the color will not be so strong.
3. Eat a red popsicle. Red popsicles contain a proper amount of food coloring, which can make your mouth look naturally rosy. Both cherry and raspberry flavors are acceptable. Eat slowly and make sure the melted popsicle water sticks to your lips. After eating a whole one, your lips will become bright and rosy. If you want to color more accurately, you can melt the popsicle in a bowl and dip it in a cotton swab. This will also prevent the teeth from turning red.
Mix different flavors of popsicles to customize a unique lip color. Popsicles mixed with grape flavor and cherry flavor can turn purple lips, and popsicles mixed with orange flavor and raspberry flavor can turn coral color.
4. Use love brand juice powder. Since 1950, red juice powder has been used as lip gloss. Who would have thought that this ordinary mixed juice could become an indispensable magic weapon in your cosmetic bag? Grab a handful of cherry or strawberry juice powder, mix it with enough olive oil to make a paste, apply it to your lips, and wipe off the excess after five minutes.
5. Create your own portable lip gloss. If you want to have a portable lip gloss that can be repaired anytime and anywhere, make one with beetroot or passion juice powder! Lip gloss made of fruit juice powder and coconut oil will be absorbed by lips and does not need to be wiped off. The preparation method is as follows: melt a tablespoon of coconut oil;
Mix with a tablespoon of favorite powder or beetroot;
Pour the mixture into a vial with a sealed lid;
Dip it with your finger or cotton swab. When the temperature rises, lip gloss will melt.
