I had the opportunity to try this and I must say that it works. Overall, I was pretty impressed with this product. However; don’t expect a dramatic effect when using this lip plumper. The effect is very minimal, but enough to show that it works to some extent.
The gloss itself isn’t too thick, but it is sticky and visible. It’s not heavy nor is it lightweight, but it isn’t enough to moisturize. In fact, expect to re-apply this product to your lips, daily, in order for this to actually take an effect to some degree and to maintain overall moisture.
When you first apply this product, you will feel a slight numbness on your lips. It occurs every time you apply, but does not last, until you apply again. The numbness is very minor. It’s not painful or annoying, just a numbness that occurs naturally when using this particular lip plumping product. You may even experience a slight tingle, although that is uncommon.
I’ve read reviews about this product throughout the world wide web and have noticed a lot of people complained about the smell and taste of this product. They said that the smell was disgusting and made claims that it reminded them of medicine. Honestly, that is one the reasons why I love this gloss so much.
I thought the smell was actually pleasant (it wasn’t overpowering, but enough to satisfy me) and reminded me of cotton candy. The taste isn’t too extreme (in fact, you can’t even taste anything at all, with the exception of the cotton candy).
This product isn’t something I recommend to anyone with thin lips, hoping to gain fuller lips overnight. I also don’t recommend this product for anyone hoping to achieve a major effect. This product creates a minimal effect and minor illusion, which is recommended to those who would like a little something extra, but nothing extreme, with a hint of sweet flavor on the side.
It sells retail for $18 and you can purchase it at the nearest Victoria’s Secret store.
Overall, I was impressed with the product. Would I use it again? Most definitely and to be honest, I already have.
