How to Make Easy Lips?

Published in DIY Beauty 2 mins read

Creating "easy lips" can refer to two distinct interpretations: drawing lips easily or making easy lip balm. Let's address both.

1. Drawing Easy Lips: A Simple Guide

Learning to draw lips requires practice, but this simple method helps beginners. As demonstrated in the YouTube video, ["How To Draw Lips | Easy Tutorial | Step By Step | Arts Core"](reference video link not provided, but implied), a basic approach involves sketching guidelines.

  • Step 1: Guide Lines: Start with a lightly sketched center line. This line determines the overall shape and symmetry.
  • Step 2: Top Lip Curve: Draw two gently curving lines to represent the cupid's bow (the top part of the upper lip).
  • Step 3: Bottom Lip: Add a soft curve for the bottom lip, ensuring it is appropriately sized in relation to the top lip.
  • Step 4: Shading: Lightly shade the area under the lower lip to create depth and dimension. Gradually add shading to create definition and form.

This step-by-step process streamlines the process, creating a realistic appearance without needing advanced drawing skills. Practice is key to achieving your desired effect.

2. Making Easy Lip Balm: DIY Recipes

Several simple recipes for homemade lip balm exist, offering easy and customizable options. Here are a few examples:

  • Simple Petroleum Jelly Lip Gloss: (From Simply Southern Mom) Combine petroleum jelly with flavored drink mix for color and taste. Adding glitter is optional. This is a quick and easy option for a basic lip gloss.

  • Beeswax Lip Balm: (Several sources mention beeswax-based lip balms) This involves melting beeswax pellets with other ingredients like cocoa butter, coconut oil, and essential oils (optional). The exact ratios can vary according to preference. This method provides a more substantial and longer-lasting lip balm. See One Little Project for a simple method, or Beekeeping Made Simple for a more detailed approach.

Remember to always use clean tools and containers when making homemade lip balms or glosses.
