Fusion Beauty: LipFusion Color Shine

Fusion Beauty: LipFusion Color Shine

Fusion Beauty’s LipFusion Color Shine is considered the next generation of lip plumpers. Most of the lip plumpers I have been trying lately use an irritant to swell your lips…although they did more irritating than swelling.
So when I received a gift card to DermStore.com I decided it was my chance to give LipFusion a try. I’ve heard a lot about Fusion Beauty products and had been pining for their LashFusion, LiftFusion Facelift and the LipFusion.
What makes LipFusion different from the others? They say they use “breakthrough technology that uses tiny, dehydrated, marine collagen microspheres, which seek out the body’s natural …read more

Luscious Cosmetics Lip Delites

Luscious Cosmetics Lip Delites

Luscious Cosmetics Lip Delites are glosses with just a hint of color to them. They contain hyralonic acid to soften your lips and a lip volumizer to plump them up to 40%.
I received two Lip Delites from Luscious Cosmetics; Boca Raton and White Sands. Boca Raton is a pink nude with a bit of silver shimmer and White Sands is a sheer pearl with silver shimmer.
I loved the look of these glosses; definitely shimmery and the colors were pretty. As with some of the other lip plumpers I have reviewed, Lip Delites plumping action only occurs over a 30 day …read more

Sally Hansen Lip Inflation Tints

 
Back when my mom finally allowed me to wear makeup, I always remember seeing Sally Hansen products on the shelves of my local drugstore. Yet, somehow, I have never tried them. So a few weeks ago I decided to give their Lip Inflation a try. Sally Hansen now has Lip Inflation Tints and I chose Sheer Pink simply because I am a pink fanatic.
Sally Hansen says:
* Refreshing tinted gloss enhances lips’ natural color and shape by shape while adding brilliant shine.
* Peppermint “cools” and stimulates lips.
* Lips become flush and plump instantly for a sexy, pouty look.
* Vitamins A …read more

Mix and Match Makeup

Mix and Match Makeup

I’m not one to stick to a particular brand and just about everyday I mix and match my makeup to suit my mood. I would find it inherently blaaaaahh to just do my face with just Este Lauder or Nars each day. How boring.
Some of my favorite mix and match products are:
* Lumiere Mineral Makeup’s Lavender Pearl along my lower lid with Jane Iredale’s Think Pink eyeshadow trio on my upper lid and brow bone.
* NYX Comsetics Super Volume Lip Plumper and Lulu Beauty’s Velvet Lip Lustre.
* Max Factor Volume Couture for thickness and length and Imju Fiberwig Mascara for …read more

NYX Cosmetics Super Volume Lip Plumper

NYX Cosmetics Super Volume Lip Plumper

NYX Cosmetics Super Volume Lip PLumper is a lip treatment designed to give you 40% fuller lips. Besides being super glossy, it also contains antioxidant Vitamin E acetate to condition your lips and herbs and Rosemary & Jojoba Oil.
The Super Volume Lip Plumper only comes in one shade: clear. The shine is tremendous. It does giving a burning sensation, although its really not that bad. My lips did plump up for about 25 minutes, which I am sure was a combination of actual plumping plus the look of the gloss to enhance its appearance.
While clear gloss always looks good, sometimes …read more

Paula Abdul’s Choice of Lip Gloss on American Idol

Paula Abdul’s Choice of Lip Gloss on American Idol

Was it just me or were Paula Abdul’s lips really big with the wrong colored gloss on them tonight? I had only tuned into American Idol tonight to see if Sanjaya would do the KFC bowl hairdo, but was agast to see these really huge lips on Paula that looked like she tried to minimize by putting on super pale pink lip gloss. Almost like Meg Ryan after her plastic surgery and grossly huge lips…except Paula added lip gloss to the ordeal to make it all the more horrific.
Seriously, did anyone else notice this?

Benefit Cosmetics Lip Plump

Benefit Cosmetics Lip Plump

I always choose not to read about a product before I test it out for myself. That way I am not biased when I review it—which lead me to believe that “lip plump” was a lip plumper. Don’t be fooled by the name, this product is a lip primer, not plumper.
Benefit Cosmetics Lip Plump is beige in color and is a little thick, not bad thick, but not lip gloss thin. It completely hid my natural lip color and it is a primer that you need to allow a few minutes dry time before you apply anything over it.
When you …read more

DuWop Venom Gloss

DuWop Venom Gloss

The last lip plumper on my list to review was DuWop’s Venom Gloss. With the luck I had been having with the last 4 plumpers, I was surely hoping this plumper would be different. Besides the fact that you, my lovely readers, voted the most for DuWop as the best plumper in my poll.
The color I used was Wisteria, which is amazingly gorgeous and a color I have deeply fallen in love with. The gloss has a high shine that just lights up my entire face when I wear it.
I began to feel the burning sensation within a minute of …read more

theBalm Plump your pucker

theBalm Plump your pucker

I’m becoming paranoid now. Are all lip plumpers made equal? Do they all contain this elusive “Maxi-Lip” technology? If this is the case–they need to go back to the drawing board and re-formulate.
theBalm Plump your pucker was next on my list of lip plumpers to try out. Bing my Cherry is a yummy scented Cherry colored gloss that also tastes like cherry. Do you remember Lemon Heads? There was a “sister” product that for the life of me I can’t remember, but it was a cherry version. That is just what this gloss smells and tastes like. Yum. Reminds me …read more

Ramy Rise and Shine Lip Gloss

I’m not sure what to think about this lip plumper. When I use a plumper, I expect to see immediate results. Would you agree? The website says that this plumper works without the burning and tingling effects, so I knew not to expect this. However, I’m not sure exactly how it is supposed to cause any plumping action without “irritating” your lips into puffing up.
What the website says:
Six luscious light reflecting colors that plump up your lips without burning or tingling. Contains Maxi-Lip, a scientific breakthrough that increases blood flow to the lips without any unpleasant tingly side effects. The …read more
