Advantages: Plumper lips in seconds

Disadvantages: Stings like a Bee

My lips are quite pouty generally but I'm a total sucker for new make up so when shopping in Boots for proper essential this "accidentally" fell into my basket!

Packaging:
The packaging is actually quite scary - a box with a large needle on it! Inside the package is a thin purple transparent tube - again with the needle down the side. I guess in todays society a needle is often the way to go but I am way too much of a wimp and poor o do that.

Product:

Too faced lip injection super size does exactly what it says on the tube (except for the injection part.) It has too main functions - to plum up your lips and to provide long lasting gloss.

Lip Plumping

When you put on a thin layer of the gloss on your lips it takes about 20 seconds to start tingling (I would not suggest using this is you have chapped lips or are sensitive to other cosmetics.) This tingling is like a mild burning sensation and isn't too unpleasant but is a bit unusual the first few times. The tingling lasts around 5 minutes - this is the time in which the Vitamin E increases the blood flow to your lips giving you a pout Posh would be proud of. This effect lasts around 4 hours and gives your lips a full redness.

Lip Gloss

The gloss is clear and last for hours if you aren't drinking, eating or smooching. It isn't sticky or thick and application is easy.

Positives
*This is a celebrity favourite and has won the Cosmopolitan Beauty Award for lip gloss in 2005
*Last for ages but isn't sticky or thick like some other lipglosses
*Smells really sickly sweet - I really like it but may be a little too much for some people
*The Packaging is very classic with 50's style design on the tube.
*Works with coloured lip stick or gloss underneath or ontop for a different look

Negatives
* You have to be careful when applying this product as if you miss your lips it does have the same sort of effect on your skin - so unless you want to look like you have been kissing a stubbly fella be careful!!

General info:

Comes in a 4.5g tube

Costs around £10 - but worth shopping around for on the internet

Overall:
After the initial tingliness/ burning this is a genuinely good product. The gloss effect is amazing and the plumping does work. It is a tad pricey but it lasts for ages as you don't need much to last a very long time

Summary: Tingly plumper lips
