Lip volume
I was flicking through different internet sites and whilst doing so, decided that I wanted a definite pout! These ideas tend to come to me in a flash!
This product was on offer from www.buycosmetics.com, and seemed an excellent idea because I could also get nectar points (there is always method in my apparent madness).
**THE PROMISE**
This promises to give fuller, plumper lips without injections, which is good news for anyone who hates the thought of injections but who loves to be sold new ideas. It also promises to hydrate lips, improve collagen and give semi permanent results. As an added bonus (really?), it's a NOW magazine star award winner. It must be good!
**PRICE AND AVAILABILITY**
The normal price is £22.99 but I got mine on a BOGOF offer from transformula and I am certain that if you search around the internet there will be bargains to be had.
**THE PACKAGING AND PRODUCT**
This comes in a very posh looking little box…open it up and inside is a silver mascara like tube. Like the eye lift product from the same company, there is nothing nasty looking about this, andit does actually look quite classy.
Unscrew the top off and it is in fact a mascara wand with a lip brush on the end.
This lip brush is used to apply the product which is actually a clear liquid with no noticeable odour.
**HOW TO USE IT**
The instructions suggest that it is used three times a day, and to do this, all that is necessary is to glide the product across your lips as you would a normal lip gloss.
**OTHER PRODUCTS**
Try the website, www.transformulas.com for other similar products. For example, this lip plump is available in clear ( which I have), seductive chocolate flavour and cherry flavour. This is a bit odd…the eye lift is available in exactly the same flavours, and I am beginning to wonder why eye lift and lip plump have the same flavours.
The website has lots of different products, all promising to make you look younger without surgery and I have this horrible feeling that I will be trying them all.
**WHAT I THOUGHT**
I started using this about 4 weeks ago, so have had about the suggested time in which to notice or not notice the promised benefits.
When the product is first applied, there is a slight, not unpleasant, tingling sensation, and this gives the feeling of lips being plumper. In fact, because of the tingle, a definite pout can occur- beware.
It does look like a clear lip gloss when applied, and because it stimulates collagen, lips definitely gain a bit of colour, so the effect when first applied is lip gloss over lipstick, which is not unpleasant.
I have used it as stated, every day for 4 weeks, and I can honestly say that my lips have not increased in size like the before and after pictures in the advertising. The advertising shows a picture of Ms Jolie, and I do not have her pout, but I don't think that hers is courtesy of Lip Volume either. However, they do seem to have pouted up a little bit, but I should have done a before photo to make certain of this. As I said before, lips really do feel and look plumped up when applied, and I think this is the way it is semi permanent…you apply it so often that the rush of blood makes them look fuller.
It does have a cooling effect, looks good without lipstick, and has definitely had some effect on my lips, although just not that suggested in the advertising campaign.
I would suggest that for an expensive lip gloss, which over time gives fuller lips, then it's a great idea. The main problem is that you have to be committed to applying it frequently, but I didn't find this a problem because it is easy to apply and pleasant in that lips are permanently hydrated.
It is worth a go, and I am going to continue to use it because after 4 weeks, there is still plenty in the tube and I remain convinced that one day I will rival Ms Jolie in the pout stakes.

Advantages: Range of products. Disadvantages: Poor service and cheap product -
...be purchased from www.lip-volume.net, which transformulas copied - BADLY!! I find their products cheap...thats all there is to say! I found the delivery time was slow and then when it arrived it was not great.
I think that they should spend more time on their webapage. its a bit tacky and reminds me of an amateur. Not a good way to go. It really needs up dating and re organising.
Overall, their site has a wide range of products - thats all. The ...
