You know how girls line outside their lips to give a full effect? Do the opposite. Drag your lip line inwards with a concealer, and create a smaller lip line for yourself. Also, dark colors give a small effect (which is why black clothing slims, dark nail polish makes nails look shorter..), so you could try a dark lipstick. But honestly, just rock em. You've got amazing lips and even if you feel like it's too much I doubt that it is. Just balance them with the rest of your makeup :)

If it bothers you, Michelle Phan uses a full coverage concealor to cover part of hit lip, then her lip color fades into that color.

There's a trend, I believe in either Japan or Korea, where women try to make their lips as small as possible. If you cover your entire lips with concealer then redraw your lip line inside your lip line it will give the appearance of being smaller and the tips from Hannah.

Anytime, doll, we all have those things we dislike about ourselves! It's important to try to work with them, because they're not going away :)

@Fizza that is SO uncalled for, when guys tell me that in RL I feel so objectified and I don't think as a female should you be encouraging that type of behavior. Because of bullying like that I felt as if I had to to do EVERYTHING to hide my lips, and just now am I loving them so at least be respectful if you arent going to help.

To answer the question... a bit of darker concealer will help to make them appear smaller, and wearing darker colors as opposed to brighter colors.

I've heard "dsl" since I was twelve which is so beyond inappropriate. I'm not all too concerned with what a guys' thought of me is, even with my boyfriend, I want to feel beautiful for me. Thank you ladies for your input on that matter, and the advice. females promoting that kind of thinking hurts a lot. Just some thoughts.

Good God girl. Your lips are stunning! Embrace them.. In if any man ever says you have dsl lips smack them in the face (; real men do not use that kind of inappropriate language when talking to a lady, a smack won't kill em. (;

Wear nude colours over pop colours to draw attention away from your lips. Like the ladies have said, if you have small lips you line your lips to on the curl of the lip to make them look bigger, so the opposite would apply line the inside of the curl :) I have big lips, I don't know how old you are but trust me, it is NOTHING to be ashamed of, embrace it you look beautiful
