Want Bigger Lips?

I'm not sure what is going on with my lips, but as I get older they get thinner. Mostly my top lip has almost vanished. It makes me appear like I am frowning and drives me nuts. I'm not into injections but would like something permanent. I normally do not wear lipstick and gloss, just the occasional chap stick.
There is one trick you can do that I read about and it seems to help, although not permanent. You coat your lips with Vaseline and then use a toothbrush and actually brush your lips. I know it sounds funny but it helps to exfoliate them and makes them appear a little plumper. This still is not just what I am looking for though.
Another thing I read about seems pretty cool. You can get permanent makeup done for your lips. A tattoo that actually makes them appear bigger and last years! There is different ways they can do it to fit your needs. There is lining the lips, lip blending, and full lip creation. I would like to try the lip blending which is where they match the color of your lips and blend around your lips to make them look fuller. It looks natural and makes then look bigger and fuller. I think this is a great idea, but you must do your research. You want some one that does this a lot and has before and after photos. Prices range but from what I have seen online it looks like the average price is around 200.$. I'm going to give it a try soon and will keep you posted on how it turns out.

Cover Girl Lash Blast

This new one has been advertised a lot and is in the orange tube. It has the super tiny brush that is supposed to get all those little lashes. To be honest I only tried it because they were out of my favorite mascara which is Mabeline Great Lash. I used it 2 times and gave it to my sister. I liked the small brush but the mascara itself was not for me. The thing with mascara is, everyone has very different lashes so what works for me may not be the best product for you. I have absolutely pathetic lashes so finding something that I love is not easy. I have tried most mascaras out there and found I always go back to Great Lash. Of coarse ladies for the best results with any mascara you need to curl your lashes with a good curler first! This really is key to making them pop and giving them length.


Cover Girl's Shimmering Sands Eyeshadow

This eyeshadow has to be the most popular set of 3 eye shadows I have seen people wear. It has the 2 brown colors and the lighter pink color. Everyone I have know loves it and has bought it. It seems the colors are right for just about everyone. It wears great and has a little bit of shimmer. I always use the lightest pink shade on the brow bone and the darker color in the crease. It runs about 5.00$ or so and last a long time. One of my all time favorites that I have been using for about 10 years now. I do wear other colors but when I need colors that I know will look great no matter what I choose these. They never fail me.

Shiseido Blush

I believe this blush cost around 32.00$ at Macy's. The color I chose was Innocent Rose. It was their lightest color. It goes on smooth and has a nice glow but I can honestly say that I don't see a lot of difference with it and other drug stores brands. You can get some cheaper brands that are a fraction of the price and seem to work just as well. I do like it but if your on a budget then I would recommend the Loreal True Match or even the Rimmel line of blushes that doesnt cost as much and performs the same.
