Does Lip Plumper Actually Work?
Lip plumpers are a temporary fix to small, flat lips. Lip plumpers have ingredients like cinnamon, ginger mint, wintergreen, and capsicum (compound in hot peppers). These ingredients boost the blood flow to the lips, leading to mild swelling (plump). These generally last a couple hours for a temporary enhancement.
For more of a semi-permanent lip plump, doctors can inject a filler into the lips. Botox or dermal fillers last a couple months and need to be maintained for a permanent appearance.
Lip plumpers bought at a drugstore can cause tingling or stinging. This may be uncomfortable for some, but creates the illusion of a fuller pout. Over using the product may lead to dryness and scaling of the lips.
Aside from using the lip plumpers, its important to protect the lips from drying. Using a chapstick before and after use of the plumper will keep the lips hydrated.
