This is a sketch of how to draw anime lips the right way, and how to draw them the wrong way. Obviously you are going to want to do things right.

Another quick sketch here on the many different types of anime style lips that you can choose to draw for your character. Take a peek at what you see here and get started.
4
Start by drawing a single semi arched line for the middle of the lips.
5
Define the very line you just previously drew, and then draw in the bottom part of the lip like you see here.
6
Next, draw in the sloped line for the middle part of the top lip, and then draw out the shape of the bottom lip like you see here.
7
Lastly, sketch out the two sides of the lips, ad then you are done. Notice how the lip lines don't connect fully this is because anime lips are usually drawn in a very subtle way.

Look how nice the lips look now that you are all done. Color them in or use them in your next anime character. I hope you had fun people.
