Frequently Asked Questions: How long does each product last? When one color is used every day the lip color lasts for 4 – 6 months; however, most customers purchase more than one color which extends the longevity of the product.
What preservative is present in LipSense? There is no preservative in LipSense. It is self-preserved. The liquid delivery system naturally kills germs and bacteria.
Does the product contain lead? IT DOES NOT AND NEVER HAS.
Are there any LipSense or Lip Gloss that are free of wheat and gluten? Yes, our Lip Color and Gloss do NOT contain wheat and gluten.
Why does my LipSense not stay on and peels off? The color technology works a little differently on each user due to different pH factors. Also, the long-lasting color technology can be impacted by medications a consumer may be taking. You may find some shades work better on your lips than others. Make sure you use only three layers of color. If the color is too thick it may peel off. Why should I buy an Ooops! Remover? This is just in case you make a mistake when you are putting your Lip Color on, or if you decide to change the color in the day. The Ooops! Remover will start to lift the color. Also it can be helpful in attempting to remove spilled Lip Color on clothing. Why should LipSense Liquid Lip Color initially be sold in a Set? The Set consists of a LipSense Liquid Lip Color, a Moisturising Gloss and Ooops! Remover. The long-lasting properties of the LipSense color product are enhanced by using one of the LipSense Moisturising Glosses. LipSense Glosses were formulated to work with the long-lasting technology of LipSense whereas other gloss formulations may break down the staying power of LipSense. In addition, the Moisturising Glosses help to keep the lips moist and plump. The Ooops! Remover is especially designed to erase those Ooops! mistakes that can occur when applying the Lip Color. As a person eats and drinks, the Gloss comes off and needs to be reapplied a few times during the day to keep the color renewed and increase its staying power. If you are using the product properly you will see that the color will last all day long.
Where is the product sold? Direct Selling Company. Distributors sell product via group demonstrations in homes, at work, at trade shows, conventions and expo events. The product may be sold in small, privately owned, non-chain retail establishments as well. I can feel a tingling sensation. What is this? The first time you try LipSense it can tingle. This is because the lips are dry and not sufficiently moisturised. Those without dry lips do not notice this. The sensation will stop once you have finished the application and applied the moisturising gloss. After you have used the Gloss for a day or two you will rarely ever experience the tingling again. Dry lips can be caused by repeated use of wax and paraffin based lipsticks, which, by their nature, can cause dry lip tissue. You can eliminate this by conditioning the lips for a few days and not using any wax based products. Once you use the LipSense and the Moisturising Gloss on a regular basis the dry lips will be gone forever. On some days I notice my Lip Color does not stay as long. Why? LipSense comes off when your lips exfoliate, which is usually every eight to ten hours or so. Because LipSense only adheres to your top layer of skin it comes off when your lips exfoliate and does not damage the underlying layers. The Gloss has Shea Butter that penetrates several layers down, actually making your lips healthier. The more moisturised your lips are the longer it will take your lips to exfoliate. Thus your LipSense will last longer if you keep your lips moist. Most women will find the color will last all day when reapplying the Gloss throughout the day. The color can also lift when eating foods with oils, eg. salads with vinaigrettes, fried chips – Gloss prior to eating these foods and this will protect the color.
Can I combine colors? Definitely. This is one of the benefits of the three layer application. You can use any of the colors to come up with various new shades to best suit you. Some colors lend themselves to applying over others, mostly used for this are Pink and Gold Champagnes. What happens if I should spill the Lip Color on my clothes? The colur is easily removed by having the item dry-cleaned, or use Ooops! Remover to help lift the color. Can I use other glosses/balms over LipSense? We do not recommend this as our Gloss promotes the staying power of LipSense as well as properly moisturising your lips. Does LipSense give protection from the sun? The proprietary formulations and color pigments in LipSense help create a physical covering for the lips, and so the color pigments help to protect the lips from the sun’s rays.
How To Apply LipSense LipSense® recommends 3 layers of coverage for maximum staying power.
1st layer – touches the skin’s pH and will begin to break down first and fastest.
2nd layer – protected from the bottom, away from the skin’s pH, by the first layer.
3rd layer – protects the second layer from the top down and prevents sheering of second layer of color by keeping away friction, saliva, and the natural environment.
APPLICATION: Step 1: SHAKE your LipSense® tube to thoroughly mix the delivery system (SD40) and pigments together. Step 2: Open your mouth and smile slightly to get a smooth surface and swipe the applicator across your top and bottom lips starting from one side and gliding to the other. DO NOT swipe the applicator back and forth! DO NOT SMACK YOUR LIPS TOGETHER. The first layer of color dries quickly. Step 3: Swipe your second layer allowing it to dry about 10-15 seconds before applying the third layer. Step 4: Swipe your third layer and allow it to dry another 10-15 seconds. Step 5: Seal the Deal with one of ourLipSense® Moisturizing Glosses over the entire area of color.
NOTE:
You may feel a tingling sensation during the first couple of applications. This is because your lips are DRY and not sufficiently moisturized. As soon as you apply your gloss and the lips get hydrated, this feeling will disappear. Be sure to apply one of our LipSense® Moisturizing Glosses throughout the day. I literally apply mine all day long; before I eat, after I eat, before bed and as soon as I feel dry. It is magic!
If your lip color is flaking, don’t stress!LipSense® is working to exfoliate dead skin cells and previous wax build up on your lips from previous product. Make sure to exfoliate the lips as well to help with the exfoliation process. The peeling will fade within a week. Don’t give up!
Throw away chapsticks and all other lip products containing wax! Waxy products will preventLipSense® from maximizing its full potential.
