It’s all I can do to shower these days. I don’t think I’ll be adding plumping lips to the routine anytime soon. Besides, I avoid pain whenever possible.

I use a pretty cheap Wet’n'Wild that smells cinnamony and tingles a little bit, not much.. but then again, I’m not entirely sure it does much

I think I have fairly good lips as well, but I guess we all wonder what it would be like to be a little Angelina every now and again. And, @steen is actually right about the way they work by activating circulation with cinnamon or mint oil compounds.. i think it’s partly why I like a little plumper.. you end up smelling kinda nice too of course, it’s all good when it just tingles, rather than burn up!

I tried a Too Faced lip plumper a while back. Yeah. That went back to Sephora. I thought the clove/cinnamon combination was either going to kill me or make me vomit. I tend to play up my eyes more anyway … I currently wear the same lipstick pretty much daily (metallic seduction by Rimmel … like $3 at Walmart).

I love Benefit products. My fav (for undereyes) is Ooh La Lift.

Some of the other colors look tasty.

@Miss Britt, Just wondering if you’d gone back and gotten it. It sounded as if you had.

A store that makes Sephora look like Walgreens?? Must look into this immediately. I’m kind of partial to The Balm Plump Your Pucker in Crush My Grapes. Not painful at all. Apparently, something magical happens in 30 days. I just like it. I’m almost out – just looked it up and it seems that color is discontinued. Now I’m pissed.

I’ve tried the plumpers and I’m not into pain either! I might try the BE stuff, though, if it’s not going to feel like fire on my face. I’m allergic to their foundation, which is sad because I like how it looks, but the rest of their products I like.
