Anyone tried LipFusion or LipFusion XL? I just got the XL version today. I personally haven't had much luck with like products, but as a true slave to marketing, I couldn't resist. My lips are so dry and chapped, I'd be slap happy if it could just cure that! :bouncing: Anyone have any experience at all with this product?

I don't have experience with this product but I used Lip Venom by Duwop before and I think it has the same effect and that stuff makes my lips tingle but didn't seem to make my lips any larger, but if that stuff works please post it and let me know because I have been wanting to try some of that as well.

It is only my first day using it, but I have noticed that it *seems* to be getting rid of the dryness, so that in itself is something that *nothing* else has been able to do. LipFusionXL does not sting your lips like Lip Venom (which I've used, and I like the sensation and the taste, but did not work, not even for dryness). LipFusion XL makes extraordinary claims, which I find, well...extraordinary...but I paid my 50 bucks and I *will* definitely post re: this product which *claims* visible results in 7 days....Pshhht, we'll see.... :yawn:

I haven't tried it either.. I've also tried the Lip Venom and I liked it.. it made my lips fuller and they stung a lot, but didn't bother me :). I didn't think it really helped with dryness though.
One thing I tried that helps with fullness also is one by Sally Hansen. I think it's just a Lip Plumper or something like that.. but it's just clear and only like $5. It doesn't have a good cinnamon flavor like the others, but for the cheaper price it's worth it. I will put chapstick on under it and that makes it help with dryness and it still works. It's very glossy too, and I think the gloss makes your lips look more full as well too!

I have been using the Lip Fusion (not XL version) for a few months now and I really like it. It is an excellent moisturizer. I have a very thin upper lip and I am noticing it does not disappear anymore when I smile, so it must be working :) I think it takes time and more than anything it is the level of moisture in my lips causing them to look fuller, but at any rate, it is the best lip gloss/moisturizer I have found. It smells and tastes nice and is not sticky like most glosses. If I want a colour I just add a liner.
Have you tried the other Lip Fusions or is the XL the first one you've tried? I have read that it is even better and am wondering if that is really the case.

hi, I bought the XL version about 2 weeks ago...$50---YIKES....anyway, regrettably I love it....regrettably because of the price.....was truly hoping I wouldn't like this stuff cuz of the repurchase costs...oh well. For me, it works. Lips plump up nicely...I am not sure if it will achieve any long term staying power though....they say it will after continued use....we'll see. The sting affect is not bad, though I have noticed if I get it anywhere out of the lip area, especially anywhere around nostrils like if I scratch nose after wiping lip area....it not only stings but feels like it could nearly draw a blister...but does NOT react that harshly on lips!!! I have VERY sensitive skin so that reaction could be unique to my skin. Anyway, I recommend it, but yikes the price:( Have not used the regular version so can't comment on comparison of the two...though the sales associate tells me she likes/owns both that she prefers and always reaches for the XL....but then she is selling the stuff;) It worked on me, lol.

It is definitely helping with moisture. My lips were constantly dehydrated and peeling, and this is the only thing I've found that really helps. As far as the plumping goes, I'm not really sure. It's possible that it does a little because it is really long wearing... It's pricey, though, so I will look into the Sally Hansen stuff.

Ok, Tiger here rating Lip fusion XL. Well, don't expect a change in the *size* of your lips. Only injections/surgery can give you this change, which I knew going into the $50 purchase. (Yeah, I know 50 bucks). What I can say that Lip Fusion XL has done for me is that it REALLY increased moisture and decreased dryness. I can say that Lip Fusion XL has made my lips look smoother (decreased the little wrinkles on the lips). I can say Lip Fusion XL has hydrated my lips long term like nothing else I've seen (I had BAD peeling/dehydration/chapping.... BUT as far as PLUMPING goes, LipFusion XL HAS improved the overall appearance of my lips in that they are not dry flakey and dehydrated, so they look smoother, healthier and more hydrated. Can I say they look bigger? No, not really, possibly my bottom lip, but that was never my problem to beging with. No change in the upper lip. I can say in their previous chapped, dry, dehydrated state, my lips looked tight, dry, NOT smooth and healthy, but using this product, they ARE smoother, softer, less tight. They look better. But it's a matter of whether you want to spent the bucks to have this result, in my humble opinion. For me, I'm actually pretty hooked! If you have dry, chapped dehydrated lips, and nothing else really helps, and you have 50 buck to spare, TRY IT, but put it on more than twice a day! I know I do!
