The Cinnamon Lip Plumping Trick!

Jan 25, 2012 at 7:39am by Michelle Phan

Hi everyone,

Lips come in all shapes and sizes. There are ways to play them up, and then there are ways to play them down. Some people go to extremes to achieve fuller lips, but you really don't need to go any further than your kitchen cabinet!

If you're looking for an easy and inexpensive way to achieve fuller lips, cinnamon makes a great lip-plumping agent.

Here's how to use it: Before applying your lip color, simply rub a bit of moistened cinnamon on your pout OR apply 1 drop of cinnamon oil to get that full, kissable look. If you choose to go the cinnamon oil route (which I think is easier), look for cinnamon leaf oil. It's inexpensive, and since you only need a drop, the bottle should last you quite a while.

I think this technique works really great, and I LOVE that it's natural. : ) Bonus: cinnamon has a ton of added health benefits and smells yummy, too.

What do you guys think? Would you give (or have you given) the cinnamon lip trick a try?

<3 Mish

      My lips are like in the middle of big and small, so in my opinion I would like my lips just a little bit fuller. I would never get any surgeries or fillers though.......just look at mama Elsa (real housewives of Miami)

      This is a great inexpensive way to acheicve fuller looking lips. I also, had a cinamon plumping lipgloss prior to this video. How ironic?

      YESSSSS ;D
      I have this REALLY old lip-plumping gloss. The color is AMAZING and it STILL plumps my lips! (Even after 5 years!)
      I'll just use this instead! Thank you! <3
      Please read my suggestion for a new makeup tutorial on that other blog. . . It would mean A WHOLE LOT to my designer aunt, and I! <3 Good Luck with everything, Michelle!!!

      I love, love, loovveeeeee how cinnamon smells and I absolutely love the taste, but I already have really full lips! It doesn't stop me from wearing bright, bold lip colors or wearing my favorite cinnamon flavored gloss ahahaha. I think this is a great tip for those ladies who want to try an alternative to the other lip plumping products!

      Lol, I'm going to try a little bit of ground cinnamon with lip gloss or petroleum jelly or something. Just to try it out. I don't want to buy 'inexpensive' cinnamon sticks or oil :P
