The mickey-taking video has already been watching more than 3.7million times on Facebook in just a day. One user commented: 'Now this one is funny.' Whilst many others put a series of laughing face emojis.

The company behind the snack said: 'We’re overjoyed that people have found a safer way to ace the Kylie Jenner challenge with Pringles Tortilla lips.

'Whether your lips are naturally plump or you need some assistance from Pringles Tortilla, we’re all about showing off your tasty pout (and eating it afterwards).'

The reportedly painful and dangerous trend involves participants placing their mouth over the opening of a cup, jar or other narrow vessel and sucking in until the air vacuum causes their lips to swell up - all in the hopes of emulating Kylie Jenner's bee-stung pout.

Countless teens, both boys and girls, have been sharing the disturbing results of their experiments on Twitter and Instagram, which in many cases has led to severe bruising around the mouth.

Surprisingly, given the sheer number of teens attempting the feat, it appears the results are far from desirable.

'I screwed up,' wrote one teenage girl along with her #kyliejennerchallenge selfie, while another complained she looked 'gross'.

'Made my chin look like a hickey a week ago and I'll say I've never felt so dumb,' one disgruntled teen admitted.

'I did the #kyliejennerchallenge and my lips turned purple,' claimed yet another.

The method works by way of the airlock created in the opening of the glass or jar, which increases blood flow to the lips and causes them to swell.

Problematically, the results are said to last for hours, even days, with several people complaining that they were stuck with the after-effects for a lot longer than expected.

Plenty of Twitter users have been quick to ridicule the craze. 'Stop with that Kylie Jenner challenge it's so gross,' one wrote.

'I hate our generation. It's so dumb. Like you guys are really sticking your lips in small cups,' another ranted.

'Do people not realise they're bursting blood vessels?' another pointed out.

Last month, two Icelandic sisters attempted the trick by sucking into a hairspray lid, and warned others against it after the stunt went disastrously wrong.

Yrja Ás Baldvinsdottir, 18, and her sister, Bir­gitta Ás, from Reykjavik, were left with swollen and blue bruised lips.

Writing on Facebook, Yrja As said: 'I wanted to warn people against do-it-yourself lip expansion, but was really surprised and shocked that it ended up being something that loads of people were copying.

'I just wanted to try it and see what they would look like, I've never done it before, and I won't be doing it again. It was very, very painful. My lips turned blue.'

As for Kylie herself, the 17-year-old Kardashian clan member has recently denied artificially enhancing her lips, despite much speculation to the contrary.

'I haven't had plastic surgery,' she told Grazia Daily

'I've never been under the knife. People flashback to pictures of me when I was 12 and say "Kylie's so different" but how can I look the same from 12 -18?'

Kylie has reacted to the challenge by taking to Twitter to say: 'I'm not here to try & encourage people/young girls to look like me or to think this is the way they should look.' 

She added: 'I want to encourage people/young girls like me to be YOURSELF & not be afraid to experiment w your look.'
