Fullips?
No cosmetic procedure, no chemicals, no tricks of light or make up. What the hell , right?
I came across this product “fullips” by accident the other day. Images of women and girls holding these red items in their hands holding them to their lips, sucking on them in the hopes of getting fuller lips.
The skeptic in me of course doubted such activity. I wound up watching a “how to” video and was hellebent on trying exactly what I was seeing before my own eyes.
My lips are naturally totally and utterly disproportionate which is kind of “normal” but when you have a super big bottom lip it makes the top one look incredibly small.
I was on a mission, I read comment after comment reading about peoples “makeshift” fullips devices. I admit. I even tried this with a foundation lid and another lid but no dice. The edges sharpness was a no go and just was not right for what was needed.
This product is spreading across the globe like wildfire and already is able to be ordered in Australia. So, I took the dive and got not 1 but 3. You see… there are different shapes and sizes. I prefer the round one myself. The oval one can create fuller areas depending where you place it.
How does it work you ask? Let’s look at the “How to” from fullips.com.au

Think of fullips as your first step in applying or reapplying, your lip cosmetics. Unlike injections, the fullips effect is meant to be temporary, much the same as lipstick. It is a beauty tool, designed to help enhance your lip line and add fullness to your lips naturally. It is best when used in addition to your regular makeup routine.
Step 1: Clean your fullips enhancer with mild soap and water. Next, we recommend lightly exfoliating the lips and the surrounding area with a soft washcloth, or exfoliation brush, to help achieve fuller results.
Step 2: Wet the area around your mouth with water or moisturizer. Moisture will help you to position the enhancer. It’s not essential, but it may help establish tighter suction, which is key to a good result.
Step 3: Position your fullips enhancer over your lip area, hold tightly in place, and begin sucking short puffs of air out of the enhancer. Continue until solid suction is established and the enhancer is holding suction, but comfortable around your mouth. You may have to move it around a little to get it into a position to establish tighter suction, especially when targeting certain areas.
Step 4: Let you lips relax into the enhancer – this is important! You should feel a gentle pulling. Leave the enhancer in place for 15-30 seconds initially, then break the suction with your finger and check the result. Repeat this step in increments until you reach the desired fullness. The longer you use it, the better and longer the results last. Hard suction is never necessary and it should not hurt. Suction should be just solid enough that you feel the pulling of your lips into the enhancer, then let them relax. If you lose suction, repeat Step 3 to re-establish solid suction. It is better to hold a gentle, but solid suction, than it is to create a hard suction.
Step 5: After using your enhancer, apply your lip cosmetics as usual. Lip liners, plumping lipstick/gloss or lip moisturizer may help your fullness last longer.
Using your fullips enhancer should NOT hurt!
If it hurts, you have created too much suction, so use your tongue or your finger to break the suction. You can then replace the enhancer and begin again. If your lips look purple or hurt in any way, STOP, as the suction is too strong.
So that said, lets have a look at the results!
It works! I can safely say my lips stayed big for over 4 hours post treatment (unlike topical plumpers which stop working almost immediately)

The Detangler.
At first glimpse you doubt the power of these whispy little bristles.
It is one of “those brushes” you view on the shelves and think will just glide over a mess of knots, nicely coating the tangled mess that lurks within.
This is NOT the case. This brush is absolutely amazing. It is very lightweight, comfortable to use and WORKS.
I just saw this available for Aussies via Woolworths Catalog here
This is awesome and gentle on wet AND dry hair and does not rip it to pieces. This brush is idea for children and those who have sensitive scalps.
Here are the promises shown on the back of the packaging of the product:
Score: 10/10
Available:
Totally astounded by the results of this product.
There is a current movement to smooth out wrinkles and to stop wrinkles from happening without the necessity of cosmetic procedure and one of them is called “wrinklesschminkles” I has stumbled across this interesting idea after I started using a product that smooths out facial wrinkles overnight. (That’s for another day!)
If you are a side sleeper like me, you will probably know the cleavage line /crease is visible. Those who have sun damage will also know what i am speaking about here.
Silicone sheeting has been known to be used for scar recovery and here we are able to use it in a way that hydrates this often neglected area and basically stopping wrinkles from happening.
The re-usable transparent heart shaped silicone sheet is placed on your chest area on clean skin before bed and basically, the theory of what can’t crease- can’t wrinkle and that is what wrinklesschminkles does. It halts the habitual occurrence of you creating such wrinkles by side sleeping and you know what… it works!
I personally noticed a significant change in one session. These were easy to apply, easy to take off. They were comfortable sleeping and I could clearly see that no wrinkes or creases had a chance of forming whence I dozed off to lala land. I would highly recommend anyone try these with deep creases and lines in this area.
Using wrinklesschminkles is a bedtime routine that you will need to be using nightly to ward off those wrinkles permanently because once you begin making creases again by your habits, they will return. My wrinkles did not “return” hours later and I stay wrinkle free after using them.
These are $35.95aud and can be purchased here
I am aware wrinklesschminkles have another range for the face which is awesome! Those who have allergies to silicone may need to forgo this product as it is a reusable silicone sheet and may cause irritation to sufferers of silicone allergy.
Anti wrinkle rating 10/10

“Foundation freak” That could very well be my alternate name.
All my life I have had a very deep fascination and fixation with foundation. Yes… I was a finger applying type.
I found so called “foundation” brushes leaving streaks all over my face. I tried sponges, beauty blenders and I have to say the Grand Champion winner of the foundation world is easily the Sigma Flat Kabuki Brush.
I have used so many brands of stippling brushes and this one…. Well I can tell you, the photos for “Look of the day” and nearly all other photos unless expressed otherwise feature this epic Kabuki Brush. I actually bought 2 of them (yes identical) because I love them so much. This brush makes even the most mediocre foundation apply flawlessly without streaks, stripes, messy hands and stained looking sponges.
Purchase here: Price $26.00
yep! they ship worldwide. Insane bargain
Score: 10/10
