We bite our lips in nervousness, stick them out like a duck's bill for a selfie, and blow a raspberry on a baby's belly. We kiss goodnight, in the midst of passion, and if we're French we kiss everyone hello.
Our lips can be pouty, perky, or pursed, and it doesn't matter if our lips are sealed for them to reveal many things about us — some we'd rather keep hidden.
Cosmopolitan recently explored the idea that looking at a person's lip shape can tell you a lot about their personality. Are their lips full and luscious, meaning that they're extravagant and love to spend money, or do their lips turn downwards slightly indicating that they're private and mysterious?
See if you can find your lip shape, and what it says about you:

2. Meg Ryan: Injected lips
In Chinese face reading, if you alter your face you change your destiny. If your lips are cosmetically altered, it could mean you like to create drama or that you're self-centered. Or, it might mean that you're prepared to do whatever it takes to look your best.
