Lip shapes

The ways lips differ: full or thin, wide or narrow, with a sharp or soft Cupid's bow.

A diagram drawn by EveryFaceShape.

Also: full lips, thin lips, bow-shaped lips

Lips vary in fullness, width, the balance between upper and lower lip, and the sharpness of the bow. Makeup guides use names such as full, thin, wide, round, heart-shaped and bow-shaped, but these are labels for talking about lipstick, not types of people. Lip shape is inherited and varies within every population. Fashions in lips have changed across history, and no shape is better than another.
