they probably use some sort of vasodilator to open up the blood vessels in your lips, making them swell.Date: 5/22/2005 7:49:52 PM

MC,
Let us know how it works. I just wonder HOW it works, and if it''s anything that one might be allergic to??
MichelleCarmen, I was wondering how long they both lasted. Funny on my lips, the Lip Venom actually made the center part puffy and the outer edges didn''t have much of a reaction. My lips got a bit more red (which I don''t like) and yes, I also noticed it was a bit TOO shiny. Unnaturally shiny...Date: 5/24/2005 12:15:23 PM

Okay, I tried two products yesterday. Plump Lips Lip Plumper by Freeze 24/7, cost $40 at Nordstrom and Lip Injection by Two Faced, cost $18.50, also at Nordies.
I applied one of the glosses on the left side of my mouth and the other on the right. Both worked, but Lip Injection worked a bit better. I could see a visable difference between the two!
That said, my lips looked weird and unnatural. Maybe I put too much on, but the gloss was TOO glossy and my lips puffed a bit too much around the edges & turned a really strong shade of orangie red - looked like I had plastic-like lips. . .Of course, I was looking up close in my mirror for like 10 minutes and over obsessing over the details, but regardless, I found myself upset that there was lumpiness around the edges of my lips. In no way had my dream of having Angelina''s sexy volumptious lips come true. . .
(BUT, if you''re interested in trying, as I said these products DO work, I''d recommend trying them in person rather than ordering online!)
And, there is some sort of vascular action (or whatever). Benefit has a product too and the woman at that counter told me theirs doesn''t do anything along this line and therefore doesn''t work as well! Lip Venom has snake venom in it!. . .the Plump Lip product uses Niacin.
lip injection is suppose to last 10-15 minutes (I think - as I didn't actually test the time). . .while in the mall, i was in a huge hurry, so I put on both brands, grabbed the sales girl's card (out of courtesy) and raced on out of there to head to my next stop (supplies a TargetDate: 5/25/2005 12:18:02 AM

Well, I loves me some snake venom, but I maybe should switch to something less poisonous...
