ASTROPUCKER ME ALL OVER THE GALAXY™

Sun, 10/18/2009 - 2:08pm
  • Lips

astropuckerMissRo here to add some volume to your lips. One of the first products I used when I got the Cosminology line was the lip plumper called...ready...Astropucker Me All Over the Galaxy Galactic Lip Plumper "for that slow and steady surge".

Every night before I go to bed, I of course wash my face, but I always put some type of lip balm on to moisturize my lips. So, I thought, not only will I be able to add moisture to my lips, but increase my pucker too!

Well, I have to say after one night, my lips looked great the next morning. Did I have Angelina Jolie's lips, no, but they were smooth, hydrated, and slightly plump...like I had a good night's sleep, even if I didn't ;).

I'm not one to really care about plumping up my puckers at night. I just feel that just as you put on your night cream for your face, you need to take care of your lips too. I have tried my fair share of lip plumpers and was never really impressed. Especially that Lip Venom that first came out. I thought my lips were going to burn off it was so uncomfortable. I never understood why most of the lip plumpers on the market had some sort of sting. Was it to emulate the sting you get from the needle when you do collagen?

I figure at the end of the day, if you are serious about your pucker, you can certainly start off with a product like this. Or, just go for the ultimate and get your lips plumped up with a bit of collagen.

Dr Dima actually has too different plumping products. There's the one that comes in a wand and the other comes in a pot. That one is called Astropucker Me All Nite Long Galactic Lip Plumper "when your lips need an all niter". This one is a little more potent. So, if you want to do the treatment at night, I would suggest you get this one and for the day time you use the other one. Now, if you prefer the wand instead of the pot, I think you can get away with using the one in the wand at night like I have.

What lip plumping products have you used? What is your favorite? Have you ever done collagen for your lips? How long did it last and would you do it again?

I've only used one lip-plumping gloss, and I too found it to be quite 'stinging' on the lips.  I used it until it ran out, as I'm strange like that and don't like to waste anything.  :PWhen it was finished I didn't buy anymore.  I don't see the need to cause yourself undue pain whilst trying to look good!

I tend to not use plumping products because my lips are BIG. You know how dark colors are supposed to make your lips look thinner/smaller? Nope, not mine. Mine pretty much look big no matter what! I guess it's a good thing though since lots of people try and make theirs look bigger. :)

I've tried plumping glosses, and hate the stinging feeling most of them have. I gave up and came to the realization I don't need it anyway and just stick to my regular lip balms/glosses.

I just recently tried the Duwop Lip Venom and I thought I was going die! My lips were going to fall off because of the pain! I would definitely like to find something that worked but didnt sting! Thanks for the review!

I am obsessed with lip plumpers, I try every one I see! Drugstore, department store, sephora, as soon as I see a new one, I buy it. In fact, I am going over to this website to check this one out, because now I want to try it.

Most recently I've tried Sugar's Pump 'Em Up, which was on heavy discount since the line is discontinued, and Stila's plumping lip glaze, which I got in a set.  I find that Sugar's is more effective, but definitely has more of the initial sting.  My lips actually feel heavier when I use it, though.

ooh the name alone sounds sooo sexy!I've never tried lip plumpers, but I have had a lip treatment in a medi-spa for a plumper upper lip.  I loved it, but it only lasted 3 months and was pretty pricey!

To be honest, I've never tried a lip plumper.  My lips are pretty big as they are, so I think I will just leave them as is

This looks amazing! I've used Too Faced Lip Injection and had a pretty serious allergic reaction (I hope...cause my lips were BURNING!), I wonder if this would do the same?

I think the harshest one I've used was the lip venom and it burned until my lips were numb and I was pretty much drooling everywhere. Now I use the Keratin lip enhancer every night before bed and every morning on my way out. I do notice a slight difference in the "plumpness" but it doesn't do anything for color and I still have to apply a chapstick afterwards. This looks like it really adds some definition and I can't wait to get my hands on some. I'm constantly trying out new lip plumpers/enhancers so I'm sure I'll love this too!

Style may be on the surface, but you can be deep and still have some - Clarissa Gough

I don't think I'd ever get lip fillers/injections. The trout pout that most get from the procedure is a little off putting.I have used the Avon lip plumper which seems to work. However, it doesn't have a long lasting or incredibly huge difference (although I have largeish lips to begin with). I'd use it again.But because I don't really have the need for it, I can't see myeslf buying other brands out there.

I love lip plumpers and have tried so many of them. I love the tingle that they have. The only one that I've found that works is LipFusion. I'm off to check out the AstroPucker one now.

"I never understood why most of the lip plumpers on the market had some sort of sting. Was it to emulate the sting you get from the needle when you do collagen?"It has the sting because the sting irritates your lips and plumps them. That's how those products work.  Some people are more sensitive.  I've never had a problem and lip venom was always kinda nice for me.

I tried the Fresh lip plumping glosses, as well as Lip Venom, and Victoria's Secret plumping gloss and they all have a sting to them. The sting comes from the gloss pinching at your lips so that it puffs up to create a pout. I most often cannot stand the sensations, so I opt for a high gloss that achieves a similar effect. I have never heard of someone using plumpers overnight, I usually just use Carmex before sleep (though I stopped recently, because the taste of my lips in the morning is disgusting!). The new plumper I tried was PurpleLab's Huge Lips Skinny Hips. You should look 'em up on Twitter or so - I'm sure Karen & Meg will be best friends quick :)

I've used a couple of different lip plumping glosses but never gotten "hooked" on any one of them because I haven't really seen any big difference in my lips. They do sting a little bit so that makes my lips feel bigger, but I don't think they actually look bigger. I wouldn't inject anything in my lips because I just don't see the point to be honest.

I'm pretty happy with the size of my lips, so no collagen for me! Plus I am deathly afraid of needles. The only plumping products I've tried are lip glosses. I didn't like the stinging properties that most of them had. The ones that formulas are more tingly and minty weren't so bad (I can't think of any exact brands right now, I think Rimmel had one don't know if they still do), but didn't really give good results.

I have tried 2 faced lip injection it kind of makes your lips feel like they have pins and needles-major tingling going on! i really like it and it definately does its job plumping but i have pretty plump lips any way so i wouldnt bother paying for a lip plumping gloss if it costs more than a regular gloss, I have an avon plump pout gloss as it was only a couple of pounds and its really nice and gives a bit of plump (but not as much as lip injection)

I have tried quite a few lip plumpers (jessica simpson had one out a while back).  I haven't found one that i like as much as sovage.  It is a bit drying but...worth the pretty color it gives you ;)

I haven't tried the ones that sting like Lip Venom but I have tried the one from Erno Laszlo.  It has a minty taste but doesn't actually sting. It looks good when you freshly apply it but after that it just fades into nothing. I have to say it doesn't really work. I find it more effective to just add a sparkly gloss on the center of my lips for that pouty effect!

Love Fusion XL and Buxom...I either use pre lipstick (apply for like 15 minutes them wipe off) or wear to bed. I think they make a dif in that they do seem to draw moisture to the lips.The ones that sting or burn aren't good IMO.I do like "fillers" (trust me,at "my age" you might consider as well :) and find that "Juvaderm" gives the most natural and best result although I had tried a couple of others as well. In the hands of s good Dr. and used with restraint,they go a LONG way towards renewing that youthful-plumpness.I have the lines on either side done and then a shot inside my lower-lip (called the "wet/dry" method) and LOVE the results which last 6-8 months.Yes,it hurts like a bitch,LOL! :) I do think that a good "plumper" such as Dr. Dina's can extend the effects as well and I'd LOVE to try hers,especially the one to be used at night.

I am way too afraid to try something like this! I have visions of those wax lips you had when you were little. yuck. This is one of those times that I admire those that are fearless with their beauty experiments.

I love lip plumpers!I have never done one that you use at night though. I always use the burny ones that give you quick but short lasting results.So this sounds more of a treatment which is good!My lips are too small for my face So i definitally need something like this.

I have a big full bottom lip, but my top lip is pretty thin (my mom calls it nonexistent). I wouldn't mind plumping that up a little bit. I've use the VS plumper, and some Clinique plumping glosses, but none really seem to do the trick. If nothing else they're great glosses, though. I always (unless I forget) put on balm before bed to keep my lips hydrated since they dry out quickly, so the idea of using it at night is interesting.

I don't use lip plumpers because they sting. Why do they sting? I don't want to have anything injected into my lips but it would be nice to get plumper lips without the any pain.
Does this lip plumper sting?

I'd never used lip plumpers cos I have thick lips.. and I don't exactly like them to be too pouty.  I have uneven upper lips though (left side is 'rounder' than the right side) -- wonder if this lip primer will help to even it out??

I've never tried a lip plumper before. My lips aren't super full, but I like them the way they are. Plus I can't wear any color other than a nude or plummy color without looking like a "lady of the night." 8| I don't know why. So I just stick to my Blistex most days.

I have used lip plumping products, I've never had collagen though...my view on the lip plumping products is that after the burning-tingly sensation went away they were a little fuller, but, I don't use them all the time because I can't stand that burning feeling.
