#KylieJennerChallenge DIY Beauty Trick Produces Terrifying Results

Yahoo MakersApril 21, 2015

Some DIY beauty trends are pure genius. The #KylieJennerChallenge is definitely not one of them.

Teens around the U.S. and even abroad are posting photos and videos of themselves trying to get the young celebrity’s superplump lips, by sucking on the lid of a small jar.

The results are terrifying.

The bruising from the suction can indeed puff up your smackers, but the effect is more grotesque than chic. The bruising can be very severe and even cause tearing, experts say. 

In some cases, the glass jar can even break, causing serious injuries, reports Pop Sugar.

Dendy Engelman, a dermatologic surgeon, told Seventeen the fad is very concerning. “There is potential risk for scarring and permanent disfigurement with repeated attempts.”

That hasn’t stopped teens from trying it out and posting the results online.

“Y’all doing something wrong,” said Twitter user @highonlaurmani, posting a side-by-side comparison of the results.

“I screwed up,” says another young Twitter user, sharing a pic of her severely swollen pout.

Like everything Kardashian-related, Kylie Jenner’s lips have stirred heated debate online since they started appear much plumper last year. The 17-year-old has insisted it’s all due to artful use of lip liner, and that she hasn’t had any surgical procedures. 

She certainly hasn’t endorsed the bottle-suction DIY idea.

“How long are we gonna talk about this lip thing lmao,” Jenner wrote on Instagram last October. “Let’s get a our lives together guys and talk about some important s***. Just talk about something new at least. I’m bored.”

Her sister Kim Kardashian backed her up.

“I go into her room, and I’m like, ‘What liner do you wear?’ because she only wears a lip liner, and then she fills it in [with the same liner],” Kardashian said in a YouTube makeup channel Pixiwoo video. “She doesn’t wear lipstick or a gloss.”

Ok imitation is the best kind of flattery but not this way as much as you may look up to a celebrity ,you do not have to make a fish out of yourself to try look like them lol. This is just a proof of the influence celebrities have on their fans ,i do have celebrities i look u to but i do know not to loose my mind or follow just anything. I do like Kylie but maybe she should have a word with her fans because they are loosing it lol.
