AceShowbiz - Anne Hathaway, age-defying and glamorous at 41, is not gatekeeping her beauty secrets. The "Les Miserables" actress recently took to TikTok, or more aptly "LipTok," to share a quick and simple trick to achieve plumper lips. This DIY beauty hack is just what young beauty enthusiasts need before a big event or photoshoot, and Hathaway's devoted fans are taking notes.
In a video posted on June 17, Hathaway is seen getting her hair done by her long-time friend and celebrity stylist Adir Abergel during a Shiseido campaign shoot. Noticing her upper lip looked a tad wilted on the monitor, Hathaway asked Abergel for a hairpin and used it to gently tap her lip, stimulating blood flow and giving her lips a fuller appearance.
"I went in and I sort of stimulated my lip to try and get some blood flow back in there, to try to get some circulation, and everyone looked at me like I had three heads," Hathaway shared, humorously addressing her followers.
Anne emphasized the importance of being gentle when using this technique. "You can overdo this, you can push too hard. It's meant to be a gentle, gentle thing," she cautioned. "If you've drawn blood you've gone too far. It's not a vampire LipTok."
Fans were quick to applaud Hathaway's honesty and practical tips. Comments ranged from sheer amazement at her technique to personal anecdotes of other lip-plumping hacks, like using minty lip gloss or poking the lips with a toothbrush. "As someone with barely an upper lip; I thank you," one user wrote, while another exclaimed, "Pop off liptok queen! I'm pale so this would really help! thank you!"
