There has been a lot of chatter on the internet about Huge Lips Skinny Hips, the new lip gloss from PurpleLab. This lip gloss promises quite a bit - to keep your lips hydrated, to plump your pout and to help curb your appetite with the help of Hoodia, a popular appetite suppressant.Ok, I'll bite. A lip gloss that looks great, works well and helps keep you skinny? Hmmm. It sounded too enticing to pass up, so I dove in and purchased Worship Kate (pictured below) from my new favorite online store, b-glowing.com. The website features a neat video to help you decide which color will work best for you. However, all of the shades are flattering on anyone, so you can't make a mistake. They are incredibly sheer. I mean really, really sheer, so you can't go wrong selecting a shade.The first time I tried out Huge Lips Skinny Hips, I was instantly impressed by how hydrating the gloss was. My lips felt really soft and hydrated (side note: I hate to use that word twice, but I hate the word moist even more). This gloss claims to have a lemon extract that helps reduce the "uncomfortable feelings" you sometimes experience with other lip plumpers. (This plumper is still the devil as far as I am concerned. It HURT for about 30 minutes after I took it off. Run away from it if you are confronted by it.) Huge Lips Skinny Hips definitely wasn't uncomfortable when I applied it. In fact, there was a tiny sensation, but it was nice and made my lips feel oh so soft.It may have plumped my lips slightly, but I think I am personally unaffected by lip plumpers (save for el diablo above) as they never seem to make that much of a difference. I still never look like a Jolie - perhaps I am expecting too much?I do like the color (Shown below. Photos are not great. Ongoing apology about photography applies here.) but would probably suggest using a lip liner to prevent the edges from getting wonky, if you don't have a really strong lip line. Then there is the appetite suppressant part of this gloss. I am not sure how I feel about that. I'm in the process of losing weight right now. I have tried Hoodia in the past and not had great results. Then again, I probably didn't take enough of it for long enough to make a difference as those supplements make me nervous. Plus I am sure
Either way, do I need a gloss to helps me lose weight? I am fairly sure that this gloss does not contain enough of the particular type of hoodia that has done well in weight loss trials - Hoodia Gordonii. How much gloss am I expected to eat? I do love the smell, so eating lots of it isn't really out of the question. However, I think the creator of PurpleLabs sums it up best when she says, "
So if this gloss helps you feel fabulous, plumped and mindful of what you are eating, then go for it! It comes in 6 plumping colors and I believe new ones are hitting the shelves any day. If you are counting on this gloss to do anything besides color your pout, you need to look a little farther (and probably in another whole direction). If sheer, non-sticky, hydrating gloss is what you are after, you are in the right place!I like how it feels, the color is really sheer.Subscribe and never miss a thing!
