    Can collagen treatments be used for making lips pink?
    I bought this lip mask called crystal collagen and want to know if it will make my dark lips more pink and less chapped.

    Just using a bit of vaseline at night, a smidgen, will fix your lips up good.

    Yes, anything with collagen in it is good moisturizer, but if you paid a lot of money for it you got robbed.

    Glutathione suppliments and sulfur suppliments like MSM would do the trick. By glutathione suppliments I mean the ones that increase glutathione in the body because am not sure the pills work.

    Lol I only paid $1. I hope it works in some way though. I didn't open it yet because I'm afraid that it might smell. Lol.

    That is from the sublime to the ridiculous ! $1. From the dollar store ? I don't know if it would smell though.

    It kind of smells like a hospital and like calamine lotion. I tried it and it kind of makes my lips look a little better. I'm going to keep using it though.

    I've been doing that for a long time- about a month but there hasn't been much difference. Should I put something on my lips before brushing?

    Hey cutebeth, not sure if you still use this site... I was just wondering how well supplements work to pinken lips... I have started taking MSM and vit c with NAC and some pycnogenol to lighten my lips. I have extremely dark smoker looking lips even though I've never smoked my whole life... will this really pinken them? I'd love to be able to wear nicki minaj
