LipFusion was the first lip-plumping gloss I ever tried, so no matter how many others I test out, there’s always a special place in my heart (and on my face) for it. And I recently returned to Fusion Beauty’s famous formula when they introduced a new version of the gloss: Smile Whitening Color Shine.

Now, of course, you don’t actually put this on your teeth (unless you’re that woman who always manages to get lipstick on her teeth when she dares to converse right after application… which is me, unfortunately). Just like the other LipFusion glosses, you apply it generously to your lips, where you’ll feel that subtle sensation that indicates it’s working towards making your lips fuller. But it’s also creating an ideally flattering color contrast between your lips and teeth, minimizing the look of yellowness and maximizing brightness.

Both my fuller-than-before lips and my teeth have just the right amount of pretty shine when I where this updated classic, and I leave the house feeling confident that my mouth is my best feature. (Until I open it, that is.)

We don’t spend twenty dollars a tube for lipstick just to re-apply every five minutes!  Unfortunately we don’t have a choice, with all the talking and eating we do our lipstick is bound to wear off.  Expert makeup artist Elke von Freudenberg has some great tips and tricks for achieving perfectly pouty long-lasting and matte lips.  He accomplished long-lasting lips by using eye shadow and clear gloss, fuller lips by softening out the lip line with concealer and matte lips with loose powder and a Kleenex. Go to complete How-To.
