I Got Kylie Jenner Lip Injections, and They Turned Me Into a MonsterI became obsessed with Kylie's pout, and fell into a black hole of lip fillers and lipsticks |
I grew up watching "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," so it should come as no surprise that I (and many other women my age) are a bit obsessed with all things Kardashian/Jenner. When Kylie Jenner blew up my social media feeds with her filler-enhanced pout, I was shocked that a few pumps (or 12) of Juvederm could so completely transform her look -- and I wanted lip injections immediately. While I never had a problem with my lips before, my pout suddenly felt pathetically thin. I knew things were serious when my "Game of Thrones" binge-watching began to take a backseat to Kylie's lips, as I spent hours in bed scrolling through her Instagram feed.
According to celebrity board-certified dermatologist Ava Shamban, MD, I'm not the only one with major lip envy. "There are more and more people in your age group coming in. Kylie Jenner has had so much press, that she's made it a really big trend," she explained. Happy to be a full-pout peasant in King Kylie's growing beauty empire, I decided to take the plunge and get lip injections myself. Here's how it turned me into a monster.
