Has anybody ever tried this or something similar? I know like every brand has something like it that I've seen, but has anybody tried it? Results? Opinions?

    i have that. it feels like you've put chillies on your lips and they go bright red and swell a bit. but i think its more to do with glossy redness that makes them look bigger.
    i have the clear one, i haven't tried the coloured ones. its something i would wear at night rather in the day though.

    the first time i put it on i blotted my lips on ym hand and it turned into a bright red lip mark.

    benefit do one, i forget what it is called, which is apparently quite good. Also, try putting a little extra gloss on top of lipstick on the middle of your bottom lip, it can create a bit of an optical illusion

    See, I hate big fake lips, they are ugly as sin. I think my bottem lip is fine, but my top lip is very thin, one of those where you smile and it pretty much disapears. I was just curious about this or similar products. I found a page with a bunch of people giving what they thought. About 50/50. Some liked it, some thought it was useless. I'm even more skeptical now :p

    I've got some Lip Venom, they sell it in Sephora amongst other places... It feels nice and tingly, and it makes your lips feel bigger, but I agree with lipsy about what it looks like on.

    I LOVE Too Faced makeup :love: Gorrrgeous.

    I've tried a minty plumping lipgloss from superdrug, and it didn't do a lot really, just made them feel a bit tingly. But then, it may have been my unaturally pouty bottom lip that stopped it from working :blush:

    Almost. Just looked at the ingredients and it's cayenne pepper, one of the properties of which is to increase capillary bloodflow to any area its applied to. I've even known of people sprinkling it in their socks in cold weather!

    So I could pretty much get the same effect that the lipgloss is going to give by rubbing some cayenne on my lips? :p

    It's only lipgloss - it wears off in an hour or so... it's not permanent!!!

    I'm guessing the lipgloss is glossier. ;)
