A-men
I got an A- on my History Test!!!! Woo-hoo!! I'm so excited!!The Zicam seems to have worked. I still have the crusty nose skin from blowing my nose 80 times in a day, and my hearing is a little shitty because I'm congested, but overall I don't feel really bad at all. I am really looking forward to this weekend.
Yesterday I went to Sephora. That place is like a slice of cosmetic heaven for me. I bought a bunch of stuff but the one I want to tell you about is called Lip Venom. My brothers girlfriend Stephanie told me about this stuff a few months ago. She described it as a painful lip gloss intended to make your lips swell and look pouty whilst bringing forth the "natural color" of your lips. I couldn't help myself -- I had to try it.
I walked in to Sephora and spoke to a woman in all black who directed me to the Pout Station. There I discovered an entire rack full of lip gloss dedicated to making lips pouty and kissable and a lovely hue of deep pink. I tried only the Lip Venom since that was the one recommended to me and sure enough it hurt like hell! I chose the Lip Venom with little gold shimmers and ~ cha-ching ~ bought my overly priced little tube of oral pain. I'm not sure if it actually does poof up your lips. It makes it feel poofy -- because it's hurting and throbbing -- but I'm guessing it's not as effective as a punch in the face might be or a row of cold sores. I do like the shine, shimmer, and the way it prevents you from rubbing it in because you're too afraid to push the pain deeper in to your lip - thus leaving your lips especially glossy for an extended period of time.
My recommendation? Before you go buy this expensive lip pouter - go to your local grocery store and buy a jar of HOT salsa, and smear it on your top or bottom lip. Do you get the lip poof? Are your lips pouty? Does the "natural color" of your lips come forth? (This is actually a mild burn to the flesh so that's what were looking for here...redness) Can you see the blood pulsating through both lips? If so -- and you enjoy the look & feel -- go to your nearest Sephora and buy Lip Venom. It's for you!

Although the row of cold sores is a good idea, I don't think most people are going for the crusty herpified look....maybe that's just me...does it really hurt?
It burns like your mouth does after eating hot salsa. My lips burn when I eat hot salsa too. It lasts for about 30 minutes.
