Tiktok is a treasure trove for finding viral beauty tricks and trends: I feel like I discover a new tip during every scrolling session. While some of the videos are seriously impressive, others are eyebrow-raising. In the latter category is a video I saw of  Kylie Larsen using a contour stick on her lips.Listen, I’m all for a sculpted, contoured look, but watching brown pigment being hastily drawn all around the lips had me questioning, well, everything. Kylie Larsen, who is the driving force behind this trend, began contouring her lips in this fashion after watching a video of celebrity makeup artist Ariel Tejada. She also applies a thick layer of contour to her jawline, cheekbones and forehead. “I do this because it gives an illusion of bigger lips,” she explains in one of her videos.
