What Is a Lip Chart? 

Like a fingerprint, lips are totally unique and vary from person to person. A lip chart is a helpful visual tool that outlines some of the different types of lip shapes and can range from thin to round to heart shaped and heavy upper or lower lips. 


Why Should I Use a Lip Chart? 

While you don’t need to use a lip chart in order to put together a dramatic lip look, the visual representation of your lips can help you get a better understanding of your lip shape and inspire you to change up your look or make your lips stand out.
