If you’ve ever watched a Kim Kardashian makeup tutorial, you know the magic that is contouring. A few swipes of a bronzer and highlighter can give you Gisele cheekbones or a Rihanna jawline, and some strategically placed lip liner and concealer can leave you with ultra-plump, or super-thinned, lips.
Of course, in an ideal world, we would all deeply love ourselves and accept every one of our body insecurities, no matter how big or small, and live out the rest of our years in a happy, anxiety-free oasis. But this is real life, and sometimes, you want to play with your lip shape.
And that’s where makeup (and YouTube) comes in. So if you’re feeling extra adventurous today and have a few extra minutes—and levels of patience—to make some magic, check out these ridiculously easy lip tutorials and test out the contouring wizardry yourself.
