I keep reading Angelina Jolie’s name anywhere lip augmentation injections are mentioned. But you don’t have to subject yourself to surgical lip enhancements or the possibility of injections “going wrong” and leaving you with unsightly lumps and clumps.

Instantly plumper lips can be yours with any one of many plumping lip glosses on the market. Most use natural ingredients that are irritants, such as cinnamon and peppermint oils. These cause a local reaction to the irritant and the lips basically swell. Lips look fuller and tiny lines disappear.

Sally Hansen’s Lip Inflation uses peppermint oils, ginger and cinnamon to stimulate the plumping effect while moisturizing and smoothing ingredients include Vitamins A and E.

The plumping effect lasts only a few hours but the vitamin-enriched formula will leave your lips hydrated and softer. Available in three tints or a clear formula. Overall, a very nice product for a drugstore price.
