Speaker 1: Hey, beauties, it's Jamie Joe and Jesse Massus and welcome
Speaker 1: to Influence, a podcast dedicated to beauty, fashion and self love,
Speaker 1: turning your weakness into uniqueness. Before we get started, we'd
Speaker 1: like to acknowledge the custodians of the land on which
Speaker 1: we record, the Gadigal people of the Eur Nation. So
Speaker 1: a couple of episodes ago we were talking about trends
Speaker 1: and how they are constantly coming in and out, But
Speaker 1: today we really want to focus on self love and
Speaker 1: knowing that your body is not interchangeable and you don't
Speaker 1: need to keep up with trends all the time. So
Speaker 1: over the past decade, I think a group of people
Speaker 1: that have had a massive impact on the trends have
Speaker 1: been the Kardashians. Come on, we all know it. We've
Speaker 1: grown up with seeing the Kardashians in the media for
Speaker 1: a really, really long time now, and they are always
Speaker 1: at the head of the trends. They were always guiding people,
Speaker 1: and people really really do idolize and look up to them.
Speaker 1: And I think a major part that we want to
Speaker 1: talk about today is filler and their sort of role
Speaker 1: in this filler journey that our society has had over
Speaker 1: the past ten years. I think philer in general has
Speaker 1: had like a really big impact on the beauty community
Speaker 1: and just on this whole generation in general, especially that
Speaker 1: like King Kylie lip filler error. We really grew up
Speaker 1: with this in the twenty tens, and it was a
Speaker 1: massive part of beauty and people who are invested in themselves,
Speaker 1: people who love to look good, and people who are
Speaker 1: really intertwined into like pop culture and media have been
Speaker 1: so influenced by this really really big trend of like
Speaker 1: that King Kylie, Kim Kardashian filler erar Me and Jesse.
Speaker 1: We don't really have like juicy juicy lip. We don't
Speaker 1: have like the fullest lips, yes, but there are ways
Speaker 1: that we do try to enhance them without the filler exactly.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say they are a deep insecurity of ours
Speaker 1: at all right now, But a few years ago, when
Speaker 1: I was deep into you know, these celebrity influences and
Speaker 1: especially the YouTube era where every big beauty guru had
Speaker 1: full lips, I mean I definitely felt a little bit
Speaker 1: of pressure or like a desire to want to get
Speaker 1: filler when I grew up and when I was older.
Speaker 1: But now because of that narrative of self love. I
Speaker 1: don't really feel it to be like a driving desire
Speaker 1: for me at all. So obviously we're not trying to
Speaker 1: say that we don't think you should get it. All
Speaker 1: the people that do have feler that it's any sort
Speaker 1: of thing wrong yea. But what we do want to
Speaker 1: share on this podcast is that if you're feeling like
Speaker 1: you have to do it because this is what is
Speaker 1: seen as normal, and that it's almost the expectation is
Speaker 1: this full lips, and you don't feel like you have that,
Speaker 1: then I think you don't have to do it to
Speaker 1: fit those trends and expectations of society. You can learn
Speaker 1: to love and adapt with what you have already. And
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that just walk out with a bare lip. No,
Speaker 1: there are ways to kind of enhance that insecurity at
Speaker 1: home without making a more permanent change. Or if you're
Speaker 1: not comfortable with like putting the chemical in your body
Speaker 1: or the effects it may have on you, then there
Speaker 1: are other ways of doing that. Let's get into how
Speaker 1: we actually achieve a fuller lip look without the lip
Speaker 1: Feller Jesse, this is like your favorite genre of beauty, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I think you've sort of nailed the lip liner
Speaker 1: Compared to me, I love the lip oil, the lip care,
Speaker 1: like feeling like my lips are buttery and smooth. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Whereas I think you've honestly nailed that this is how
Speaker 1: I achieve a fuller lip. Look. Okay, that's true, but
Speaker 1: that means we've just got both two different like things
Speaker 1: to share in terms of how to get that juicy lip. Now.
Speaker 1: I really love the way that fresh lip filler looks.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie the smooth Yeah, your lips look full,
Speaker 1: they look smooth, and they look very like pink. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I think you kind of always have just been
Speaker 1: like kissing, like we're just so flushed and beautiful funny. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So there's like those two different sides of this look.
Speaker 1: You've got like a very effortless, juicy, plump lip as
Speaker 1: you're saying that doesn't need lipliner, and then you've got
Speaker 1: more of a done look with yipliner. That's laugh fine.
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna last through out the day without
Speaker 1: having to reapply as well. Yeah. So in terms of
Speaker 1: our favorite products, me personally, as Jesse said, I rely
Speaker 1: on lipliner, and that's because my lips don't have a
Speaker 1: lot of natural pigmentation at all, like they honestly just blend.
Speaker 1: And because we do both have olive skin, we don't
Speaker 1: have a lot of fluctuation in terms of color on
Speaker 1: our face in general. So that's something I'm always trying
Speaker 1: to add for a little bit more youthfulness, even like blush.
Speaker 1: Even our cheeks, they're not like naturally roasty exactly. We're
Speaker 1: very like one dimensional in terms of tone. So with
Speaker 1: the lips, I love to create a lip liner, yeah,
Speaker 1: defined contoured lip and I've got one go to Lipliner
Speaker 1: and I have purchased literally over ten of these lipliners
Speaker 1: and it is the rare beauty lipliner in the shade. Wise,
Speaker 1: I can vouch for this there she has actually bought ten.
Speaker 1: She's not overshooting. That's probably the number. I no, like, it
Speaker 1: really is, and I think I've got like three on
Speaker 1: rotation at the moment. So this is thirty dollars and
Speaker 1: you can get it from any mecha, which I love.
Speaker 1: I love red beauty as you guys know, but this
Speaker 1: particular shade on our skin tone, so we've got medium
Speaker 1: ten olive skin. It is perfect. It is not too pink.
Speaker 1: It is not too brown, but it just really helps
Speaker 1: to distinguish and just contour the lip. I like to
Speaker 1: overline my lips just for that little juicy effect, and
Speaker 1: that's definitely something that I learned from Miss Kylie Jenner.
Speaker 1: So I like to kind of smooth out my cupid's bow.
Speaker 1: As I was saying again in a previous episode, I
Speaker 1: love smoothing it out just for a more plump, dole
Speaker 1: like effect to the lips. And I try not to
Speaker 1: bring the lip liner too far to the sides because
Speaker 1: I'm learning this one from you exactly. That can really
Speaker 1: elongate your lips. So if you're focused more on going
Speaker 1: up and down, yeah, it gives you more of a full,
Speaker 1: powdery like, youthful doll like effects with the lips. So
Speaker 1: this lip liner really lasts so well. And I don't
Speaker 1: like to color my lip in at all with a
Speaker 1: lip liner. I just like to do a nice outline
Speaker 1: and do around two layers just so I have some longevity. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And then if you want a cheaper alternative that I
Speaker 1: like to use, it's the Mecha Max lipliners and they're
Speaker 1: from Mecca obviously, and they're sixteen dollars Yeah, they've got
Speaker 1: some really great shade, big shade range, big shade range,
Speaker 1: and the longevity is honestly just as good as Rare Beauty,
Speaker 1: so they're a great option with this. It is more
Speaker 1: of a pencil that you actually need to sharpen and
Speaker 1: Rare Beauty s liipliner is away signed up, so it's
Speaker 1: a little bit easier to use on the go because
Speaker 1: have you ever been on the go with a blunt
Speaker 1: lipliner and no sharpener. It feels like you're actually just
Speaker 1: scraping wood against your lip and it doesn't Yeah, rather
Speaker 1: than getting a pigment from the lip shade, you're just
Speaker 1: getting pigment because you're making a lipsplease. Yeah, that's so true,
Speaker 1: because you're like actually hurting yourself. Yeah, I Tom it
Speaker 1: hate being on the go with a blunt lip liner
Speaker 1: because you don't get that crisp look that you're kind
Speaker 1: of needing. And especially if you're like me and Jesse
Speaker 1: without very defined edges of our lips, I'm gonna need
Speaker 1: to create that. So try and keep a sharpened lip
Speaker 1: pencil on you at all times. I cannot leave the
Speaker 1: house with that lipliner. Do you have a sharpener in
Speaker 1: your car, Jay, No, but that's why I use a twist.
Speaker 1: Oh she's fancy. So that is the first step in
Speaker 1: helping to create more of a full look. Now, in
Speaker 1: terms of what we like to use on the inside
Speaker 1: of our lips, I'm gonna throw that over to you, Jess,
Speaker 1: because you love this. I do. I love the juicy,
Speaker 1: juicifying lip products. So Jamie likes to do the outline
Speaker 1: in the liner and then on the inside we'll put
Speaker 1: like a nice gloss and just really make sure to
Speaker 1: keep it in the center of the lip and not
Speaker 1: smudge it too much with the outer definition of the liner.
Speaker 1: And my favorite lip gloss plumper items. I've got two.
Speaker 1: The first is a more expensive product, but I honestly
Speaker 1: think these are so worth it. They're my favorite lip gloss.
Speaker 1: They don't formula kicky, they feel really nice on the lip.
Speaker 1: Their buttery, They're not like, yeah, you know what I means.
Speaker 1: So this is the do your addict lip Maximize a
Speaker 1: plumping gloss in Shimmer Strawberry or zero zero one Pink
Speaker 1: for sixty four dollars at Sephora. So yeah, it is
Speaker 1: a little bit more expensive, but as we've said before,
Speaker 1: do your products feel luster, and they feel so beautiful
Speaker 1: and you feel just bougie when you own them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and who doesn't want to feel little bit bougie sometimes exactly.
Speaker 1: And also if you're going to compare that to getting
Speaker 1: lip filler's obviously a lot more expensive, so kind of
Speaker 1: it kind of balances itself out right, That's what I'm
Speaker 1: going to tell myself. Okay, you tell that, and I'll
Speaker 1: just use your deal products and then for a cheaper
Speaker 1: alternative that's actually in my affordability bracket is the Lift
Speaker 1: Plumping gloss in the Shade Blush Blaze. And this is
Speaker 1: seventeen dollars from Mabeling and its available at Chemist Warehouse
Speaker 1: and at and at Priceline. I think it's out like woolies, yeah,
Speaker 1: anywhere that you can find Mabeling. It's such a good
Speaker 1: glossy an affordable price. The formula is a lot smoother,
Speaker 1: I'd say, so it kind of is a more slidy formula,
Speaker 1: but it does look really beautiful on the lips, and
Speaker 1: it fills out those like little cracks that we've got
Speaker 1: in our lips. It does, I mean, Jimmy got like
Speaker 1: the lines in our lips rather than when you you
Speaker 1: know when people get filler and they're nice and smooth.
Speaker 1: This kind of gives the effect of the smooth exactly.
Speaker 1: And then they've also got the heat versions and these
Speaker 1: are actually a plumping They have spicy like with literal
Speaker 1: chili in it actually to make your lips go. And
Speaker 1: it does work work because it does like give your
Speaker 1: lips like a little bit of that allergic reaction where
Speaker 1: it's like literally spicy. Yeah, but it looks pretty sexy.
Speaker 1: This is our favorite way to achieve that lip plump look. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I think both are such really really great products.
Speaker 1: Just depends what price bracket you're in. But do youor
Speaker 1: have beautiful shades? And they've got a little bit more
Speaker 1: of a range in terms of the colors that you
Speaker 1: can get. Yeah, that's true. They've got like i'd say,
Speaker 1: with ma it can be hard to find the deeper
Speaker 1: cherry like rich shades. They've got more of the news.
Speaker 1: They're like traditional papers. Yeah with door, you've got coral,
Speaker 1: you've got brown, you've got this. And the shades are delicious. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they like and in the packaging they just look yummy.
Speaker 1: It looks so good, it looks beautiful. So those are
Speaker 1: some really great ways to help you achieve that plump
Speaker 1: lip filler effects. So you've got the lip liner and
Speaker 1: then you've got a juicy product in the center of
Speaker 1: the lips. I love the way this looks on my lips.
Speaker 1: And these are my go to products, as in, I
Speaker 1: really want to cry if I leave the house and
Speaker 1: I don't have them. Yeah, Jamie's handbag is actually just
Speaker 1: full of lip products and that's it, Like there's nothing
Speaker 1: else in there. It is full of about four to
Speaker 1: five lip products at a time. But there has to
Speaker 1: be every girl's bag. You always have to be lip ready.
Speaker 1: You have to be lip ready. And I think that
Speaker 1: when I was growing up, I never used like good lipsticks.
Speaker 1: I had a rough time. Actually, Jamie have some funny stories.
Speaker 1: Jamie used to wear the really wrong colors, like the
Speaker 1: worst color lipsticks possible for my complexion. So she went
Speaker 1: to year ten formal in this pink dress with like
Speaker 1: a bit of green on it and then like a
Speaker 1: little bit of brighter pinks. And she went with that
Speaker 1: formal dress to Priceline and made sure to shade match
Speaker 1: her lipstick exactly to the brightest shade of pink on
Speaker 1: that dress. A futia on her lips and against her
Speaker 1: purple blush on her face and blue eyes. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: I looked clown like yeah, and it was like one
Speaker 1: of those super stay matte lipsticks that you can't rub off.
Speaker 1: Oh see, you guys are so lucky horror stories. We're
Speaker 1: here to tell you that because that looked absolutely horrible
Speaker 1: and I didn't have a big sister to say, what
Speaker 1: are you doing? Just a little one going. Jess's like
Speaker 1: laughing in the corner and I'm like, no, Dad, it
Speaker 1: looks good. I promise it does. It absolutely does not.
Speaker 1: So in terms of lips, there's so many ways to
Speaker 1: kind of achieve that. Look, if you are a little
Speaker 1: bit insecure about the size of your lips, just know
Speaker 1: that they're probably actually in harmony with your face and
Speaker 1: this can really help you to just enhnce that little
Speaker 1: bit of that insecurity of yours. So you do feel
Speaker 1: confident leave in house. Yah, So tune into our next episode.
