My two favorite lip plumping products that I recommend to everyone are Soap & Glory’s Sexy Motherpucker and Too Faced’s Lip Injection. When I heard that there was a new product, Too Faced Lip Injection Color Bomb!, I knew I needed to give it a try. I bought the shade Candy Burst which is a pale doll-pink shade. I love that they have infused their lip plumping formula into a lip “crayon” of sorts with color! I’ve been hoping that they would do this with the “Lip Injection” line for years now, actually. Let me tell you: this works. It will tingle on your lips, but it does plump your lips up and make them look much fuller quickly.
Candy Burst is a baby pink shade. I honestly wanted them all, but I tried to pick a shade I would get a lot of daily use out of. This shade is light enough to pair with a smoky eye but also natural enough to wear everyday. The product itself is like a big crayon or marker for your lips. There is a round ball of product that you can twist up as you use it.
I’ve used their “Lip Injection” Lip Gloss for years now, but it’s nice to have a lip color infused with the same formula. This product does tingle, be warned. It can vary depending on how much you’ve recently exfoliated your lips (the more exfoliated they are, the more it may tingle). For me, it’s not uncomfortable and it goes away after about five or ten minutes. What is most important here is that it is extremely effective in plumping up your lips. I mean, most people who are using lip plumping products expect a bit of a tingle, right?
This product puts down beautiful color. It can be applied lightly for a sheer application or with a few swipes (shown in the swatch above). It’s nice that it’s in an applicator and has the consistency of lipstick, this way you’re not applying the tingling part to your fingers or outside of your mouth. In the past, some of the Lip Injection Lip Gloss has gotten outside of my lip line, and trust me, it will turn red. I like that this product solves the concern of making the area around your lips turn red. You can be very precise when applying this!
The color and the formula are beautiful. This is a universally flattering shade. It enhanced the size of my lips within just a couple of minutes. Even my husband, who never says lip plumping products work, said that my lips looked much larger and more full. If my husband can notice a difference, then I know it worked!
Look at that difference! Now that is what I expect a lip plumping product to do. Overall, I love this product. It comes in several other shades, as well, which are now on my wish list!
Too Faced Lip Injection Color Bomb! is a brand new product available at Ulta and Sephora stores nationwide. Each one retails for $21.00 USD. There are six shades available including the one in this post, “Candy Burst.” Check out the other shades on Sephora’s website.
