pouted

Pushed lips forward

Pouted is the past tense of pout—to push out the lips in displeasure, sulkiness, or disappointment.

Children pout when they don't get their way; adults pout when feeling slighted: She pouted when he forgot their anniversary.

Pouted lips can also be deliberately sensual, as in fashion photography or flirtation.
