Sally Hansen Lip Inflation Color-Full in "Embrace"

Embrace is a fun orangey-salmon color with a hint of red.  Plus, it tastes and smells like cinnamon, and it really has great pigmentation and a decent amount of plumping!  I'd say it's a good one.

ELF Plumping Lip Glaze in "Fuchsia Fanatic"

I'm not a huge fan of the plumping lip glazes, because the color payoff isn't good, they taste weird, and they don't really work.  Having said that, they're sort of fun to try out, and they only cost a dollar each.  I got one in "Fuchsia Fanatic" and it's probably the best one I have, because it's one of the only ones with a color that actually shows up.  It's more vibrant and cool than it looks in the pictures.

Sally Hansen Collagen Lip Lift in "Sheer Tranquil Toffee"

I have to say, I'm not sure if this lipstick is actually good for my lips, and it certainly doesn't seem to plump them, but this is one of the most moisturizing and easy-to-wear lipsticks I own.  The "toffee" color is more like a sheer brick red, but it looks nice, especially in fall and winter.  This is a good lipstick to wear to work, but you can also wear it at night too, perhaps with some winged black eye liner or a neutral smokey eye.  There is no offensive smell to this lipstick either.  I'm not sure if these are still sold in stores, but you can find them all over the internet.

L'Oreal Glam Shine Dazzling Plumping Lip Gloss in "Diva" (700)

Okay, so these have been discontinued but I snagged several of them years ago, and surprisingly they still "work".  They haven't expired or anything, and I believe this one, Diva, I got in late 2003, because I wore it to my first freshman dance in high school and loved the way it looked.
These glosses might have too much sparkle for me now, but they're still fun.  There really isn't much of a plumping effect, but my lips look smooth and shiny when I wear them, so that's good.  "Diva" is a rich, medium reddish pink with tons of multi-colored sparkles.  You end up noticing the sparkles more than you notice the actual color!

L'Oreal Glam Shine Dazzling Plumping Lip Gloss in "Muse" (500)

This is a color I rarely reach for.  First of all, the Glam Shine lip glosses are fun, but possibly too sparkly and while they claim to plump, they really don't. (Although the sparkles might make your lips look bigger in theory).  Muse is a light purplish pink with considerable sparkles. One thing these lip glosses definitely have going for them is significant color payoff.  One swipe will really do the trick with this lip gloss.  Unfortunately, you can't really find these anywhere these days.  I think they've been discontinued.  It's possible you could still find them on Ebay, though, and I think some of them are probably worth the journey.  This isn't my favorite color, but I have others that I love.

Sally Hansen Lip Inflation Extreme HD in "Gigabyte"

I'm not usually a fan of sheer lip colors--I like creamy, pigmented, fun lip colors.  However, it's obvious from looking at this tube of lip gloss that you are going to get a clear, sparkly, slightly pinkish gloss.  The sparkles are out of this world--this is probably the sparkliest gloss I own.  Also, it actually does plump your lips, at least temporarily.  It tastes and smells like cinnamon which I absolutely love, and you can feel a tingling sensation (which some might not enjoy, but I like)

As you can see in the picture above, Gigabyte is almost entirely clear, but there are visible sparkles.

Hard Candy Plumping Serum Volumizing Lip Gloss in "Girly Girl"

Okay, I'll admit I'm disappointed.  I thought Hard Candy was going to be a great brand, because everyone seems to be raving about it, but this lip gloss was a pretty big disappointment.  First off, there is practically no payoff.  In the tube it looks like it's going to be a light nude, but it's actually almost entirely clear, with sparkles.  Oh well.  Also, there's absolutely no volumizing effect (at least I don't think so) plus it makes my lips peel and feel really weird, and it's super sticky. Yeah, stay away.  But for the hell of it, here are some swatches since it's not an ugly color.
