How to Darken Any Lip Color You Already Own — No New Purchases Required

Just as diligently exfoliate the skin of your face and body several times a week to get rid of dead cells, do the same for your pout. But don't use the same product on your mouth as you would anywhere else. Your lips require more gentle, natural ingredients, because the skin there is delicate. We like Tarte Pout Prep Lip Exfoliant ($16) and French Girl Rose Lip Polish ($15).

You can also DIY with ingredients you probably already have sitting in your kitchen cabinets. Try this DIY sugar scrub made from white sugar, honey, and coconut oil.
