    That's a tough one, I have only used one lip lightening product (Godiva Lip Lightening Gloss) for two months and saw no lightening.

    This is aggressive and I don't know if this may make them darken in the long run, because the skin is thinner.. but I have actuallu been slippin on a small bit of retin A at night and a good lip teatment.. /balm, whichever one moisterizes well.. my lips peel but they are lighter and I exfoliate with a facial scrubber to remove the peeling in the morning... it's worth a shot.. it's been working for me...

    Yeah you can lighten the lips, use the lightening cream that you are currently using on the lips only @ night before you go to sleep and put some vaseline over it so that it will stay on, the lips lighten quickly so you won't be doing it for long
    Yep it worked for me, it made my dream of wearing nude lipstick into a reality:D

    Boricua does the peeling on the lips cause any irritation or stinging? How long did it take for you to see lightening on the lips an do you apply sunblock? I considered this but wasn't sure.

    Try NuLips lips Balm it takes time but it works!! If you continue to drink coffee and tea or smoke make sure to wipe off lips afterwards and apply NuLips. Use sunscreen and exfoliate your lips.

    I purchased mines at uniqueprices.ecrater.com.. Remember it's not an overnight process. I've been using NuLips for two weeks and Im noticing results. It's on eBay also

    Yes, fortuntaly you can. I'm going through the same crisis as you and I found I way to lighten them!!
    THE SECRET IS:
    EXFOLIATION
    Yep that's it . EXFOLIATION. Do it every morning and nigght before you go to bed;.. most suitable after you've burshed your teeth, just run the tootbrush under water for 5 seconds, and then scrub your lips lighly, your lips may get abit red but that's just the stimulation! After you've scrubbe your lips, it may seem abit dry, so preferebly add some vaseline to your lips then go to bed. Do the same process again in the morning when you wake up, BEST RESULTS

    TRUST ME, IT WORKS :D xxxx
