Pucker Up

This pregnancy is truly starting to kick my ass.  I have completed 6 months of my term and already I feel like my due date should be tomorrow.  My husband laughs sometimes.  How I wish I could find a place that could simulate pregnancy for him.  I’ve seen it done on tv and I think even Paris and Nicole tried on the pregnancy suit for an episode in Simple Life Season 4.  Carrying twins, I think, is a whole new ball game.

Last Sunday my mother and I went to the International Women’s Show for the 4th year in a row.  We even brought a wheelchair just incase I needed it.  But I managed to walk around.  Whenever I needed to rest, I’d walk up to a booth and ask to borrow a chair for a few minutes.  It worked out great.  One booth was for Great Lips RX lip plumper.  My mom is a huge sceptic when it comes to this stuff.  The woman selling the stuff raved that her product was the real deal.  We were able to sample it then walk around a bit while it did it’s job and then see for ourselves if we don’t notice a difference.  The first 5 minutes of wearing this stuff was like you were being tattoo’d on your lips.  She did said it may tingle a bit for the first few minutes.  Ran into a friend of mine as she was leaving, mom and I were walking to the ATM.  Mentioned to my friend we had sampled this lip plumper, another gal with her looks at me and says "you don’t need it".. well that’s because I had already been wearing it for 20 minutes.  My mom about died looking at me.  I pulled out a pocket mirror in my purse and when I saw my lips I could not stop laughing. They were HUGE. This stuff works!

We went back to the booth and both my mom and myself bought a tube at the discounted special show price of $25.  We were instructed to put it on 3 times a day for one month.  But when the woman at the booth saw my lips she said I was a once a day person.  The tingling stinging is less each time it’s applied.  I’ll have to take some before and after pictures.

    I *might* have kissed a boy once while wearing lip plumper. He told me the next time we went out that he had a mild chemical burn from it. I about died laughing!

  • Um, just looking at your picture on your blog, it doesn’t appear to me that you need to plump your lips at all. Be happy with what you’ve already got!:-)

  • I’m too scared to try that stuff – I would be the 1% that had some serious reaction and end up with Mick Jagger lips or something!
