    DIY a Fake Lip Piercing

    1. Purchase a large amount of earring wire and wrap it around a pen/pencil
    2. Cut the ends of the wire so that it resembles an open-loop
    3. Use a metal file to scratch the edges to smoothen it. Otherwise, the sharp edge will hurt your lips. Either way, add a dot of hot glue on the edges and allow it to dry.
    4. Once the glue dries, bend the wire until it is of the same width as your lips
    5. Position the ring in a way that the open edge rests on your lips
