How Did It Start?
It’s not clear how the trend started, but “faking fillers” is a popular beauty hack. Makeup artists and other experts offer tips on using liners, gloss and other tricks to achieve the look of full lips.
On TikTok, the girls decided to skip using makeup and went right to the glue.
How Crazy Is It?
The idea of using Crazy Glue or nail glue sounds, well, crazy, but some observers note that the TikTok girls are using eyelash glue, which is safe to use on human skin.
Others note that this particular lip-filling hack is a lot safer than the previous craze, which involved sucking the air from a shot glass to achieve a puckered effect.

Does Gluing Your Lips Work?
The real question is, does the trick work? Those who tried it reported that it does, but it’s only temporary. You might achieve the effect long enough to take a selfie.
If you want longer-lasting results that don’t require glue, check out one of the many YouTube videos offering tips on achieving fuller lips with makeup.
