Plump your lips painlessly with Lipstick Queen

I've whined about lip plumpers before and in fact I so dread that annoying tingling feeling they give me I never use them. So I'm thrilled to read bout Lipstick Queen's new Big Bang illusion gloss. The Queen's "big bang theory" is that the shade of shine to shimmer of the product creates an illusion of fuller lips rather than regular plumpers that leave your lips feeling icky. The gloss uses small particles of shimmer to blur out lines and make your lips look full and voluptuous. Available in 8 shades, I definitely need one (or three!) in my purse.

Big Bang will officially hit stores in month, but according to The Beauty Counter blog, you can meet the Queen herself (founder Poppy King) and test out the gloss at Space NK @ Bloomingdale's tomorrow at South Coast Plaza from 6-8 pm and Friday at Century City from 1-5 pm. You lips will thank you!
