Lip Plumpers: Get Fuller Lips Without Surgery

In the past few weeks, I've talked about obtaining soft, kissable lips and getting a prettier, healthier smile. Today I'm diving into the topic of full lips. Socialites and celebs with lots of money to spare don't bat an eye at the outrageous cost of lip augmentation -- approximately $400 to $1000 for collagen or fat injections -- but those of us with less padded wallets can hardly justify that kind of spending.

That's where handy dandy, comparably inexpensive lip plumpers come into play. Take, for example, DuWop Lip Venom ($16). This cult classic favorite is a "tingly gloss that uses essential oils to enhance lips' natural color and shape by increasing circulation. You end up with a shiny, naturally rosy pout that cannot be achieved by wearing ordinary lip gloss."

I've used DuWop Lip Venom many, many times. And yes, it works. My lips are fuller and more flush in as little as five minutes after applying. You can also try their Venom Plumping Paste ($18), which combines the classic Venom formula with a conditioner to keep lips super soft.
