The Best Nude Lip Liners For Fuller-Looking Lips

The Best Nude Lip Liners For Fuller-Looking Lips featured image

Lip liner has come a long way from the trusty pencils our grandmothers swore by. Once only used to keep lipstick “in the lines,” lip liners can now do anything from prime the lips, temporarily “fill” the look of lines, and even treat lips while you wear them.

To instantly fake the look of fuller, plumper lips, take a play from Kim Kardashian’s book: Simply overline the cupids bow and center of the bottom lip with a nude liner, filling in the remainder of your lips as usual.

Here, the best liners for the job.
