the technical reason that someone looks unnatural is when you either try to enlarge something beyond its natural dimensions there's only a certain point is how far the skin will stretch before you start to lose the contours and we say like you can't have light without dark so the goal of your face the goal of a natural-looking face is not to be totally smooth and to have no curves and no shadows and no lines when you smile you're supposed to you see my brow elevate and you see some lines in my forehead you know I'm I'm conveying expression I'm conveying a message to you that I'm surprised or that I'm angry and so if you lose those expressions if you lose the shape of your lip you have a Cupid's bow where it looks like it dips down in the middle or you have two pillows in the butt lower lip and if you distort that by just blowing past all of that and filling it up and so you have a sausage now for your lower lip I mean your eye will pick up on that very quickly that that's not natural you might not know how to describe what is natural but you know what isn't and so you distort the natural dimensions
