Cupid's bow
Double curve of the human upper lip / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the mythical being who carries a weapon of the same name, see Cupid.
The Cupid's bow is a facial feature where the double curve of a human upper lip is said to resemble the bow of Cupid, the Roman god of erotic love. The peaks of the bow coincide with the philtral columns giving a prominent bow appearance to the lip. It is outlined with the vermilion border, which connects the lip skin to the facial skin.
