You will feel a slight pinch and a slight suction pulling on your lips. The pain is minimal but your lips will become accustomed to the suction after about one week. Thereafter, you will feel little or no pain whatsoever. If you do not like the strong pull of the suction on your lips, compress the pump at your comfort level until your lips are conditioned to the suction of the pump. Once you are accustomed to the suction, you can compress the lip pump at its maximum capacity. Thus, the stronger the suction, the larger your lips will be in a shorter period of time.

No. X-Treme Lip-Shaper Technology is 100% safe. It uses a similar concept as Chinese Cupping therapy found in ancient records dating back 3,500 years ago. Cupping therapy is a method of using glass or plastic cups to create a local suction on the skin to help release trapped toxins from deep tissues and help improve cell’s oxygen movement and nutrient uptake. A common misconception is that the bruises 80% of users may get from their first lip enhancement sessions are due to bleeding in the lip and mouth tissues caused by breakage of capillaries. If toxins are present in the lips or mouth tissues, suction can leave discoloration marks because they have been drawn from the deeper layers to the surface. But there is no bleeding in your lip or mouth tissues. This is why once you completely cleanse your deep mouth and lip tissues, a second discoloration is not likely to happen again.
All individuals are different. The cupping marks color may range from light pink to bluish purple to even black. Make sure you understand and are aware of the side effect before you use CandyLipz. The side effect is short lasting for 7 days or less. In some users, the conditioning period may take as long as 10 days before the cupping marks resolve. If you are slightly anemic, your cupping marks may be darker and your conditioning period may last longer as well. Having a balanced and healthy diet may help you reduce your conditioning period. Plan ahead before you decide to use CandyLipz. We thank you for your support.
Yes. The lack of oxygen will turn your lips blue. This symptom will disappear in a few seconds.
Yes, they work as a system. It is best that you buy them as a set. It will be the best investment and the ultimate beauty product you will ever own. You use the single-lobed model first before you use the double-lobed model. The single-lobed model is also a trainer pump which you should use for nighttime application. From customer's feedback, people who thought they would not ever use the double-lobed lip pumps ended up loved the double-lobed lip pumps more than the single-lobed lip pumps. You will need both pumps. They are so fun. Everyone who purchased the pumps are addicted to CandyLipping.
All individuals are different. However, on average, the appearance of enlarged lips may last between one and one-half to two hours. You may use your lip pump every few hours to keep up the appearance throughout the day. Remember, in most cases, it only takes 2 minutes to achieve the appearance of larger lips. With daily long-term use, this look may last for up to four hours or longer.
Users have reported that they could completely avoid getting hickey marks by enhancing the upper or lower lip one at a time! Try this trick if you want to avoid getting the hickey marks altogether!
The Apple Set fits most females and the Licorice Set fits most males.
If you have wide lips or wide teeth arches, it is best to get the licorice set (even if you have thin lips.)
If you already have full lips, the licorice set will be best for your needs.
All models work on the upper and lower lips. However, Model B and D give you the option to reverse the lip pumps.
This function allows you to get more suction in when the upper lip is being worked on.
You can double or even triple the appearance of your lip size with daily use of the lip pump if you have some lips. If you do not have lips to begin with, it might be difficult to double your lip size instantly. For first-time users, the results may not be as drastic as you might expect. However, with time, you can double the appearance of your lip size. Practice makes better.
You can use the lip enhancement pump as many times per day as you like after 7 to 10 days of conditioning. Give your lips at least a 15-30 seconds rest period after two to four minutes of suction. Remember to check your lips after two minutes to determine their size. Because the pump can be used hands-free, it is very easy for you to forget to remove the lip pump from your lips. WARNING: The appearance of your lips can become EXTREMELY LARGE!

Yes. It does take a longer time for elderly individuals in their late 50s to obtain their results because their lip skin is not as hydrated, pliable, and flexible as in younger individuals. However, with continuous use of the lip enhancement pump, the lip skin will appear to rejuvenate and become more elastic. When this occurs, it will take less time to enlarge the appearance of lips in elderly individuals.
Yes. After your conditioning period of 7 to 10 days, you can use it daily and nightly. If your lips are sore or get hickey marks, you should stop using the pump until the soreness or hickey marks go away.
You know when you have found the perfect suction when you do not need to hold the pump with your hand! You can jump, dance, lean your head downward, and move! The pump will still remain attached tightly to your lips. If not, give it a few more compresses until you find the right amount of suction. Do not get discouraged if you are unable to get the perfect suction the first few times you try! Practice makes better.

Yes. CandyLipz can accommodate all lip sizes. It is best to buy a set as you will need both pumps. These are fun toys. To learn more about what is the right lip pump for you, read this link.
We have users who have lip injections and they are using both methods at the same time. We do not know if the suction can move your fillers or may induce allergic reactions from the fillers. However, if you do, you will use it at your own risk.
You can use the 1/2 moon-shaped Blocker to control the look of the upper lip. TIPS: If your upper lip is too large, use your index finger to put pressure on the upper lip for 10 seconds to redistribute its volume.
You can easily lessen the appearance by using the Single-Lobed Lip-Shaper® Pump. This style will help redistribute the volume of your double-lobed lip and lessen the appearance of a deep crease.
Simply re-do and re-center the creaser of the lip pump mouthpiece to your lower lip. Give your lips another application! This will re-center the midline crease of your lower lip.
The ideal lip proportion is the ratio of 1:1.6 between the upper and lower lips but all individuals are different so try all lip styles and see what looks best for you.
Yes. Get model B or D. To enhance the upper lip, use the blocker to block suction or the lower chamber of the pump and/or use the pump upside down.
If you have thin upper lip, get model B or D. The upper lip is a bit more difficult to enlarge than the lower lip. However, after 6 months of daily use and night time applications, some individuals may double and triple the height of their upper lips. All individual results may vary.
Yes. However, there is one condition. Your mustache must not be too thick! You can use the mouth cushion to prevent air from entering the pump. Since you have a mustache, you have the option to use the moon-shaped Blocker to enhance the lower lip alone.
There are three important reasons why nighttime application is so important:
1. Believe it or not, the best way to enhance the appearance of your lips and to help your lips look LUSCIOUSLY FULLER in the long run is to do your daily nighttime application! Before you fall asleep, make your lips look as large as you can by using the Single-Lobed Lip-Shaper® pump. Your lips will appear enlarged until the morning because you are not talking or moving. Yes. Talking and moving can deflate your lips much quicker than when you are at rest. This is why lip injections might last just a few weeks for many of you who have tried this method. (Note: The Single-Lobed Lip-Shaper® pump might increase the appearance of your lip size by 50% more as compared to the Double-Lobed Lip-Shaper® pump. The reason for this is because the Double-Lobed Lip-Shaper® pump has a central creaser in the lower chamber of the mouthpiece, thus, it is more difficult for your whole lips to get deep into the pump for necessary for lip enhancement.)
2. If you use the nightly application consistently, you may not need to use the lip pump frequently during the day! When you are not talking and moving, the lip skin stays stretched for five to six hours. This practice allows your lips to naturally build, rebuild, and produce collagen fibers that fill the stretched lip skin. This is why you appear to have fuller lips in the long run. If you have lip pits, grooves, or dimples, watch! They will eventually go away!
3. As we age, our lips tend to flatten, shrink, lengthen, and lose their contours. Thus, to prevent lip atrophy associated with aging, you might like to use the lip pump frequently.
Make sure your lip pump mouthpiece and your lips are air-tight while you have your session. If air leaks in or out of the lip pump, you will make funny noises.
1. You may need to use the mouth cover to prevent temporary redness around the mouth.
Note: More than 50% of users may get temporary redness around their lips. The redness is more pronounced on individuals with light skin. In darker-skinned individuals, it is usually absent. Normally, the redness will disappear in a few seconds so this cushion is optional to use.
2. You may need to use the mouth cover to prevent air from entering the lip pump if you are one of the following individuals:
a) If you are an elderly individual with little fat surrounding the area of the lips
b) If you have a very coarse mustache or stubble
c) If you need a tighter squeeze around the lips because you have VERY small lip width
Otherwise, for majority of females, you WILL NOT NEED the mouth cushion or even males who have close shaved skin.
Yes. The appearance of your lips will stay enlarged longer if you are hydrated. If the appearance of your lips is not enhanced after two minutes, you are dehydrated. Stay hydrated. Take your weight in pounds and divide by two in order to determine how many ounces of water you should drink per day. Water, not coffee, caffeinated drinks or soda beverages! 20% of the water you consume will come from foods.
Yes. Anti-inflammatory drugs or pain killers will lessen the enhanced appearance of your lips and they also cause the appearance of your lips to deflate faster as well.
Yes. The translations are at www.CandyLipz.com.
Yes. If you have not used maximum suction strength during your conditioning period of 7 to 10 days, you may get a second bruising. For your lips to be adapted to your own specific lip pump pressure, make sure you use maximum pressure when you start your program. Once you get that out of the way, you will not bruise again.
Yes. This may happen and it is quite normal. It takes just a few hours to recover from the busted blister. When this happens, allow your lip to heal before you start to plump your lips again.
You can use tweezers to pull the Blocker out.
Yes. Different lip pumps have different diameters so when you compress a different diameter on to your lips, you will go through a very short lip conditioning period again.
It is not likely that your lips will get wedged in the lip pump. In the case that they do (because you forget to take the lip pump off) let some air in, allow your lips to deflate, and gently wiggle the pump off slowly.
Yes. The conditioning period is between 7 to 10 days. There are a few reasons why your bruises still linger around.
a) You may have not used maximum suction pressure during your conditioning period. Make sure you use maximum suction strength so your lips are conditioned to this pressure. After that, you will not bruise again.
b) Diet may affect how you heal and clear toxins from the body. Make sure you drink raw vegetable juice, eat a lot of broccoli and radish sprouts in your salad, and drink plenty of water with fresh squeezed lemon juice. They will help you move toxins out from your body quicker.
c) Age also plays an important part in how your body heals. If you are young, it is very likely that you will not get the bruises at all or you will get very faint bruises. However, the older you get, the more likely that you bruise more easily and your conditioning period may be a bit longer.
d) If you are take medications, smoke, drink alcohol, have a swing diet, or spend a lot of time in the sun, these factors will affect your body’s healing process.
In summary, a good way to resolve your bruises quicker is to follow the diet tips above. Remember! NO PAIN. NO GAIN. Getting beautiful lips without surgery or injections will require a little effort from you. Your lips will thank you for taking them to the gym.
You can add organic collagen supplements, organic gelatin, and/or eat bone-broth soups with tendon and cartilage to help your body produce collagen. You also need Vitamin C to produce collagen. Your body does not produce Vitamin C; Take Vitamin C supplements and/or add a lemon a day to your diet. To learn more about the scientific research and studies of collagen that are available, you can tune into “Live to 100” with Thienna at http://webtalkradio.net/shows/live-to-100.
With aging, your lips will naturally sag and droop so that part cannot be prevented. However, by using the lip pump, there is anecdotal evidence that it does not stretch your skin but it may plump and re-builds the lip and mouth tissues. Read more here.
Your lips may require extreme suction to work! In this case, do just one lip at a time. Use the blocker and block the upper chamber. Do not press in the blocker too hard or it will be hard to get it out with your thumb and index finger later. Pucker as you normally would but only allow one lip to be sucked into the lip pump. Use more time during the training period if needed but take a 30-second break between each session. Practice makes better. Trivia: Indian users from India take twice as long to enlarge the appearance of their lips. These users have very thick and dense lip and mouth tissues. Their diet may have affected the lip enhancement process.
If you already use maximum suction pressure during your conditioning period, the bruising should not get worse at all but they will gradually get better. If you like to use the lip pump, you can still use it. Plumping your lips is like bringing them to the gym. If your lips are sore, give them a break before you start again. All marks should gradually dissipate with continuous use of the lip pump.
Yes. However, you need to completely heal first before you can use your lip pump. If you use your lip pump right after your skin treatment, the repeated friction of the lip pump may cause skin discoloration around your mouth. Try to avoid using harsh chemicals around the mouth area if you can.
To keep the double-lobed lips last longer, you must practice daily! Make them HUGE before going to bed or before going out. Have fun!
There is a good chance that you did not use the lip pump correctly. This means that you have not used the right suction. For it to work, you must feel the strength of the suction sucking and pulling on your lips! If you do not feel it, you are not going to get the effect you desire and it will not last. On average, the appearance of your enlarged lips lasts for two hours. For a few lucky users, they last for up to 24 hours. There are users who have reported that if you use it for 1 minute, it lasts 1 hour; 2 minutes for 2 hours; and 4 minutes for 4 hours!!! Try this. All individuals are different but if you double your lips size before going out, your lips will last much longer and your touchups will be quicker too
