Greetings! This is the long-lost Hollywood girl! Just like to check in every so often. In response to the previous reply, I think it's the wax in products that leads to dry lips and creates the problems that the L2K system tries to reverse. I am one of the few gals who never peeled...and I think it's because I never in my life used Chapstick or heavy lipsticks...or Carmex or other popular tube lip balms. I just celebrated my 52nd birthday and I received so many compliments. My lips look nourished and I continue to see improvement even after so many months...especially in my upper lip. If you take away the rest of my face (lol)--the upper lip could be a teenager's!! It has the pillowy look (for lack of a better word) of a younger person. I don't think Kandis sleeps either..she takes such good care of her flock. She must have learned how to type in her sleep! Anyway, glad to see and hear all the good news! |

Hi, You know, I'm not seeing much improvement in my lips. I'm keeping a file of my "progress" but, honestly, I don't see much difference from beginning to now. I'm at 5 months. I don't want to give up but....
BTW, I only peeled the least little bit in the beginning. |

Mars, have you contacted Kandis? I think you should work with her to see if there is anything she recommends you do. Sorry, I don't know what else to tell you. |

Hey everyone! I got some new CNG's from Kandis and the colours are really gorgeous.
I'm thrilled with them. The ones I have dont have names on them, but I think they are now named and up on the site.
I got a gorgeously pretty pink, a nice neutral - y peach tone, and a lovely strawberry colour. They are absolutely wearable at all times and of course they feel absolutely fabulous.
I couldnt be happier with them. I am recommending them as a stand alone product, to people not commiting to the entire system straight off, just so they can get as feel of the wonderful quality of these totally different lip products.
Some of my gf's have tried them,and are just amazed at how nice they feel and how pretty they look!
Have fun! |

Catski,
Are those the Time2heal glazes that have all 3 ingredients?

Hi Deb. Yes, they are the new formula!
They are the new colours - I just looked at the site and see they havent been named yet, after all.
They are gorgeous. |

After following this thread closely for months, I've finally taken the plunge and purchased. Thanks to all those who have catalogued their experiences; this seems a wonderful and natural product and so much more appealing to me than injections.
I've already had great advice from Kandis on what to order (she does indeed live up to her legendary customer service), and I'm very excited to get started. I'll let you all know how I get on! |

After having read several pages on EDS forum with (mostly) recs on the L2K system, I bought it some months ago. I also liked the theory behind.
I used the system AM and PM and the special lip gloss from L2K three-four times a day. This was the efforts I was capable of. I have normal sized lips with a bit dryness. Unfortunately, I didn't notice any difference in my lips after three months of use.
I found this system to be very time- and money consuming. I have returned to my old friends John Masters and Julie Hewett (lip balm) after my unsuccessful fling. |

Catski,
Did you order either 2 or 6 in the new spring colors? That would be the first and third on the right hand side. TIA |

I ordered the pent colour duo system and unfortunately it is way toooo dark for me
Kandis kindly informed me I could exchange for the CNG and I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of same, the colours looked fantastic. It's taking quite a while tho, I'm thinking it's the postal system cross border. I'll let you know how these work out when I get them. |

Thank You, Catski! I thought the 6 looked very pretty and natural. |

What has been people's experience with the face to flaunt products? LE, ULLE? |
|

|

I have the LE, but not sure what I"m supposed to notice. As of yet, I've not found much of an effect,but then I'm also not sleeping well and that may be counteracting any benefits it's giving me. I'd be interested to hear of anyone else's experiences or improvements as well. |

This is such an interesting thread. I looked at the before and afters of the Maximum Natural Lip Fullness and to be honest it looks like an injectable lip filler was used in the afters. From a scientific stand point, I don't know how it is possible to increase the lip fullness without using an injectable like Juvederm or Restylane. I would be interested in trying it to eradicate upper lip lines, though. |

Hi it's been a while since I've posted in this thread, or indeed in the forum. Been sidetracked by other things
I just wanted to post my new picture, taken yesterday. To recap, I have been on the system for 5 months (since December). Now I am one of those on the slow-poke train, after the first 2 months or so I have been rather lazy with my routine and have seldom blow-dried and have not been applying products as often as I should (naughty me!) On the plus side, I have been doing the LC-LG-NG step twice a day almost every day, and have not worn any other lip product except L2K (I love how comfortable they are on my lips, and have not been tempted by anything else so far).
My main problem is that upper lip is very dark, and also much smaller than my bottom lip. Previously I used a lot of those long-wearing lipsticks to mask the discoloration, and my lips were always dry and peeling.
The first photo was taken at the start of the system, the second (I believe) after one month and the third after 5 months.
I'm very happy with the progress - my upper lip is definitely plumper now, it's now the same size as my bottom one and in the mornings, even fuller than the bottom one! The discoloration is still there, but is getting fainter and the color of my lips pinker. I'm telling myself to be more diligent with the blow-drying and to apply products more often, I think these pics will give me the added push I need!
I do get peeling but not as bad as before I started the system so it does not really bother me.
Hope others are equally happy with L2K and Kandis! |

Your lips look beautiful, Cahoot. I cannot believe how the pigmentation has changed in your top lip. Congratulations. |

Thank you BluesHeart! The pigmentation still has a ways to go before they're gone, but they've been there for ages, since my early twenties if I remember correctly (I'm 37 now) so any kind of progress is welcome!
I'm now lemming for some of Kandis' new lip colors, as well as Karin Herzog oxygen cream, courtesy of your review!! |

Well it certainly looks like you're on the right track. I just ordered the number six in the glaze and I can't wait to get it. Those lemmings are nasty bugs, arn't they? Which is why I waited six weeks before I reviewed. I'm very happy with my choice. Keep us updated. |

Cahoot congrats! Your progress is really impressive, although if I had your "before" lips I'd be estatic |

Anya, thank you!
Are you on L2K? If you are don't lose hope, I didn't think that much has changed, I did notice my upper lip plumping up but I didn't think the change was that obvious until I took the last photo. And this was over about 3-4 months of not doing anything much
Best of luck! |

Great results, cahoot. That is a great testament for L2K since you said you were not the faithful with the system, but still got those great results! |
|
|
|
|
Tue Apr 22, 2008 9:06 pm |
Cahoot, I've been using L2K faithfully for about 11 months and have had great results, but I have less "material" to work on than you have
I posted some progress pics waaaaay back on this thread, and Kandis has my pics on her site. Must send her another update...... |

Anya, would love to see your most recent pics - I find photos a great encouragement 'tool' since I'm one of those whose enthusiasm tends to taper off very quickly
Rileygirl, thank you! Hopefully my photo can encourage those in the same boat! |
