    When I got restalyne it was a little lumpy and they never went away (until the restalyne got absorbed.) I think the ideal proportion for lips is 1/3 (upper) to 2/3 (lower) but as long as your happy with the results!

    They look nice. You can't see any dent in the picture at all.

    The way you apply lipliner is distracting. You really should apply it TO the lipline, not above. I keep thinking you have a moustache!

    Edit: Didn't mean for that to come out rude.. I just think you're making the "small lip" (in your mind) situation worse, not better, by applying it incorrectly.

    in these pics i havent extended my lipliner past my lips. the only reason im wearing lipliner with my puffed-up lips is cuz im going to go see my mom today cause im leaving to fl, and if she finds out i got injections shell throw a fit... but shes so used to seeing me with a lot of lipliner so hopefully she wont see that much of a difference, if that makes sense

    I kinda like that look. Looks much better than the pics in your 1st thread about this.

    lol the last pics cute, they look better, they will keep going down too.

    Yha I want to see them with your mouth completely closed too.

    I'd kind of like to do this but...I dunno. My lips are so small and my face is angular that I think puffy lips would be weird....hmm

    When you see your mom wear the top liner even more down so it doesn't cover any part of you lip that isn't naturally pink (like the ridge usually is faded into you face skin), because that lip is defenatly bigger than before even with you wearing the liner like you did.

    They definitely look better than 2 days ago. They will continue to go down some, but I think they look hot. A bit big still, but hot.

    Based on what you posted, I think your mom will know immediately that you got your lips done. Maybe you should scrap the lipliner and lipstick and go more subtle?

    I think its funny you got lip injections and two days later wanted smaller looking lips.
    Also, I don't think that's your lipline. I keep looking at it over and over.. and I really think you might not know where your lipline it. That's not it.

    My opinion isn't important. I guess if you're happy with how it looks that's all that matters.

    As for your mom, unless she poked out her eyes i'm pretty sure she's gonna notice something is up.

    Sidenote, I gotta agree with Lysondra. Maybe pick lipliner that isn't so much darker than your lip color?

    Why are there 3 pictures of you making an open mouthed fish face? I get that you want us to see the distinction, but we really don't need 3 pictures with the same expression (in that case, one will do). Can you show them in different "positions'?

    Omfgbarbie, you have to know that the look that you are trying to achieve (both before and after the lip injections) is extreme. Not everyone is into the frosted light lipstick with lip liner showing. But you are pretty and in my opinion you can pull it off (I also like an extreme "fake" look).

    Yeah you look hot, I can understand why you naturally freaked at first because they were really really swollen and puffed up. They will continue to settle down more creating a more natural looking full pout. Which is what you wanted to achieve.
    You can pull off the big pouty lips just fine though.

    The lighting is different in the first two pictures and the third one IS a different "position." When somebody makes a change to their own face they notice even the most subtle things. Everybody else that looks at your face sees the little things too- your brain just processes so quickly you aren't aware. Its all the little peices that make up the big picture and form an impression. Im sure the OP was just trying to post enough photographs that we would get a good idea of how they look. Sorry if it took up too much bandwith on your computer. Maybe you shouldn't click on links with pictures if thats a problem.

    If you're happy with it, that's what matters. My understanding is that all those fillers/etc. take a while for the swelling to go down, so i'm sure it will change over a couple weeks.

    It doesn't do it for me, i think it looks a little freaky, but, meh, that's just my opinion.

    Your mom is going to notice something though, unless she is blind.

    hope you wind up happy with the end results

    If you want to hide it from your mom there's ways to do it. People told me there was NO WAY I could hide my BA from my mom and I did. She noticed but I said it was a really good bra...you could say you got stung on the mouth by a bee or something, I dunno, you can think of something along with make up.

    Good idea Joplin! Maybe not a bee stinging her lips as that's just a little bit far fetched lol. However she could say she tried out a new lip plumping product and had a horrible allergic reaction to it! You never know, it might work!

    My point is the lips are in the same position to me. I was suggesting maybe one with her mouth closed or something to see what they look like for real, as suggested by another poster as well. I was not being "snarky" or "mean" if that's what your implying.

    And I don't believe I ever said they took too much bandwith on my computer either.
