VT Reedle Shot Lip Plumper Expert

If you have used a lip plumper before and found it underwhelming, this is the version aimed at you. The Reedle Shot Lip Plumper Expert is VT's higher-intensity option, with more spicules and a stronger sensation than the Beginner, and a clear glass-like gloss finish.

The sensation comes from two ingredients working together: menthyl lactate, which cools, and vanillyl butyl ether, which warms. Alongside them sit VT's CICA REEDLE silica particles and anemarrhena asphodeloides root extract. Jojoba seed oil, vitamin E, sodium hyaluronate and Centella Asiatica compounds keep lips feeling conditioned through it. The gloss itself is clear and high-shine, so it works over any lip colour.

This is for people already comfortable with lip plumpers who want a stronger version. If you have never used one, start with the Beginner. Do not use it on cracked or uncomfortable lips.

3.     Wait for the finish to settle and expect a strong tingling sensation.

4.     Adjust the amount according to your own tolerance, using less if the sensation is too much.

5.     Avoid using it on cracked or uncomfortable lips, and do not use it immediately after lip tattooing or filler procedures without speaking to a specialist first.
