It's all good though, because the latest trend booming on Instagram is marble lip art, which is an equally stunning compromise I can have in the meantime.
The design may look super intricate, but this step-by-step tutorial by beauty vlogger @Kristianathe proves all you really need to create your own marble-like lip masterpiece are a few different lip shades, a tiny liner brush, and a steady hand for drawing strokes of colours.
In need of some major marble lip inspo? Prepare to swoon over these sexy, stone-cold lips.
