Her lips are no longer sealed. Kylie Jenner finally confessed that her plump pout isn't just due to over-lining and really good makeup. Duh! We all knew that was the case. I always found it silly that she tried to hide getting work done–especially when it was such a drastic change. On Keeping Up With The Kardashians, the 17-year-old admitted to getting lip injections or fillers to enhance the size of her lips. The way she did it was classic Kardashian.

Of course, all of Kylie's lip drama plays out on the family's reality show. In the upcoming trailer, Kylie is totally shocked after a reporter had the nerve to ask about her pout transformation and whether it was natural. She doesn't confirm or deny it, but then runs to sister Khloe Kardashian to vent about "all the lip talk."
Leave it to big sister Khloe to encourage Kylie to admit to the lip injections. Khloe says during her confessional, "I think if you've done something though, it's right to cop up to it." I didn't realize that it was even legal for a minor to even get this type of cosmetic procedure!
Please don't go to the extreme Kylie did. You can fake it naturally! Here are fifteen ways to get a fuller pout without taking it to Jenner's extreme.

Hydrate and plump
Hydrating your lips doesn't just keep them smooth and soft, but also helps to increase volume. Look for one with plumping effects, like Dior Creme de Rose Smoothing Plumping Lip Balm ($27).
Swipe on some peppermint
I always look for balms that have peppermint in them. It naturally plumps lips. Try Dr. Bronner's Organic Peppermint Lip Balm ($3).
Exfoliate
Exfoliating regularly buffs away dead lip cells, polishes your pout and also stimulates blood circulation, making your lips look fuller. Try Bliss Fabulips Sugar Lip Scrub ($18).
Rub on some cinnamon oil
Most lip-plumping products tend to contain cinnamon oil. Why? Because it increases blood flow and irritates the mucosa of the lips, causing your pout to swell and temporarily look fuller and sexier. Try rubbing some on your pout for a few seconds.
Try cayenne pepper
I know women that mix a little cayenne pepper into their Vaseline or lip balm. The spicyness helps lips to swell up too.
Use concealer
One of the ways you can make your lips look bigger is by brightening the center area. Add some concealer to the edge of your lip line and then blend the top edges. I love Bobbi Brown Face Touch Up Stick ($28).
Line
Take a sharpened lip liner and start tracing slightly outside the natural outline of your lips, making them look fuller. This also helps add definition. I'm obsessed with Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Lip Pencil ($20). It stays put for hours!
Fill in
You can look for a matching lipstick or fill in your lips with the same pencil you used to outline the edges. This is what Kylie claimed she did! While she finally admitted to getting work done, this trick DOES work (maybe it won't be as drastic as Kylie's, but it will still look plumper!).
Use lip-plumping gloss
Look for a gloss that adds instant shine and volume, like Dior Addict Lip Maximizer High Volume Lip Plumper ($33).
Use lip-plumping lipstick
Or try a lipstick with a non-tingling, plumping effect like Buxom Love Dolly Full-Bodied Lipstick ($21).
Peppermint essential oil
Peppermint oil helps boost circulation naturally, which will pump more blood to your lips. The result will swell your lips slightly while also providing a cooling effect. $12.99 at Amazon.com
Use a lip polish
Buxom's formula is like a lip gloss, but even better. It has a plumping effect that works instantly. You'll feel slight tingling on your lips so you'll know it's really working. Plus, it has a touch of sparkle, which will give the illusion of a bigger pout. $19 at Sephora.com
Whistle
It may sound silly, but whistling does help plump your lips naturally. It's all about exercising your lip muscles. Try to whistle three times a day to get plumper lips without having to use any products.
Honey or beeswax
These natural ingredients are ideal for plumping lips! Beewax provides a natural tingling session, which boosts circulation. Apply for about 10 minutes on your lips and then rinse.
Drink from a straw
Similar to whistling, drinking from a straw helps workout your lip muscles. The secret is in the puckering movement. Drink up and plump your lips at the same time! Pretty effortless, no?
