Bigger lips without painful plumpers

At the Cynthia Rowley show, MAC makeup artist Val Garland shared a tip to get bigger-looking lips — without those stinging plumpers or carefully filling in around your lips with pencil.

She says that without a defined edge, your lips will look bigger (just make sure to clean up any major smudging).
