Battle of Two Lip Plumpers

Vs.

Simply put, The Boots product wins! It is glossier, the "sting" feeling lasts longer and it is less expensive. I have been using Lip Venom for a few weeks and I am pretty convinced that it's drying out my lips. Sad So If you are a current fan of Lip Venom, I suggest you try the Boots Time Dimensions lip plumper. I got mine at Target for about $9. Heck, even if you don't use Lip Venom try the Boots. It's a bit cinnamon-y and it stings your lips, but not terribly and gives a nice sheer sheen to them. I like that it stings a bit, it reminds you that you have lips and makes you feel sensual.

I've been using a lip plumper by Philosophy Cosmetics (from the drugstore) and it works great!

Hey, question for you guys who do wear lip plumpers, do you wear them under, over, or instead of lipstick? I've always wanted to try lip plumpers, but didn't know how to wear them. . .

I'd try it if I had a Target in Puerto Rico :-( But there's no way for me to get to the Boots. I did find Lip Venoms at Marshall's for $3 each (lol). I bought like 4 :D

I like the little "sting" my Sally Hansen plumper has. It's natural, the package said it used cinnamon and ginger in it. __ “Fashion fades, only style remains the same.” —Coco Chanel

:ROTFL: 'gum replacement'- love it! This is cheap enough I might give it a try. Not too psyched for the 'sting'- but we'll see.

I thought I was the only one who liked that "sting". Glad I'm not a weirdo after all. :ROTFL: I will def have to try the Boots. :KOOL:

Thanks! I have the Lip Venom one, I keep it in my bad and it's been there forever. I don't love it but I like that it can be a gum replacement since it's minty. I'm not convinced in it and it is expensive for what you get.

I know it doesn't really plump your lips, but I like the tingly feeling. Plus Lip Venom is so well known that I wanted to see if I was missing out on something good.

Why do people use "lip plumpers" all they do is irritate your lips to make you think something is happening but they show no real difference

I've been wanting to try the Boots. I bought some Sally Hanson for about $5 and I really like that. __ “Fashion fades, only style remains the same.” —Coco Chanel

Oh, and romaniagrl, maybe you should check out my post on the lip smoother if you have problems with flaky or chapped lips. I love it!

I'll try the the Boots, but I do like BE BosomLips. I use the shade "Dolly" which is a light pink. It is more like menthol, but it feels tingly and good. Also know when to reaplly because you can't feel it anymore. LipVenom scare the heck out of me. I got it for free for giving a donation to breat cancer awareness and they sent it to me in a nice pouch. I'm seriously thinking that snake venom is not a good option. How does it feel?

I am not much of a lip plumper fan.

I'll have to buy the one by Boots next time I go to CVS; I love Lip Venom so it should be interesting to try the Boots plumper. Thanks for posting this!

Lala, I didn't know :( I thought you could find lots of stuff there too these days. Especially the Boots since it's made in Britain. Oh well, maybe when I come to Romania I'll bring you one. ;)

I have used a plumper only once, my lips are pretty plump on their own, but I have to say that the cinnamon flavor made me fell kinda sick so I gave up on the plumpers.

lucyS 5 years 11 weeks

Thanks for the review. I will definitely try out the Boots version.

We don't have any of these two here in Romania, as you might know :D But if one day I will come to America, I'll for sure buy The Boots one :D
