Stoked to debut my slightly swollen lips to the rest of the world, I practically leapt out of Shamban's chair for the door. But before releasing me into the world again, Shamban swatted away the lipstick I was pulling from my purse and told me my newly enhanced lips came with a few restrictions.

"No lipstick or hot drinks for at least 24 hours. The lipstick will dry out your lips and hot drinks will flair up any potential swelling. Also, avoid any intense makeout sessions for a couple days," she said. Good thing I'm single.

Once I arrived to the Total Beauty office, my co-workers were amazed by how natural my lips looked, saying they weren't nearly as dramatic as Jenner's, but they could see a difference. Some even went back to their desks to Google the procedure, interested in trying it themselves (that's when you know you #nailedit). I sat down at my desk, puckered up and sent my best post-injection selfies to friends and family. I waited eagerly for their response.

Overall consensus: very positive. My mother was glad to see that I still resembled her and my friends were happy I don't look like Lisa Rinna. Still, I found myself spiraling downward when everyone reiterated that my lips weren't even close to Kylie-sized. My lips were like a full B, while Kylie's are more like a DD. Sure, my bigger lips were better, but not everything I wanted them to be. Determined to achieve Jenner's lip level, I knew lipstick and lip liners were going to be some of my best bets for recreating her signature pucker (after 24 hours of course).

Go big or go to Sephora (which is basically home) -- and that's exactly what I did next.

After months of scrolling through Kylie Jenner's Instagram -- I had the girl's iconic lip looks down to a "T" and knew exactly what colors to go for (obsession pays off). And her beautiful brown lips were just begging to be recreated.

In order to recreate her signature brown lips, I needed to go with a matte finish lipstick to match King Kylie. I opted for the highly pigmented and creamy Nyx Matte Lipstick, $6, in Maison, and puckered up as hard as I could.

While the dramatic matte color made my lips stand out, when I looked in the mirror, I still wasn't satisfied with their miniscule size. *sigh* On to the next one.

As I scrolled through Instagram to find my next iconic Jenner look, I immediately noticed that the queen of a pretty pout isn't scared to rock bold and non-traditional lip colors -- and one particular shade would test my confidence. While a majority of my closet is black, I had never considered debuting black lipstick for fear of (personally) coming out looking goth (it's a high school mentality thing). But for the sake of the pretty pout princess, and my undying curiosity -- I went on the search for the black lipstick that would make me Jenner's twin.
