Morphology

The word is a straightforward compound built from 'lip' and 'shaped', and its meaning is directly recoverable from those parts.

Lip-shaped breaks into lip and -shaped, where lip is the part of the mouth and -shaped means 'in the form of'. So lip-shaped simply means 'shaped like a lip', helping you picture a soft, curved form.
