I was like, yeah, you probably learned that in my product recall episode, dad. If blindness by way of hair gel isn’t enough to sway you, the Federal Drug Administration has some choice words: “NEVER buy dermal fillers on the Internet. They may be fake, contaminated, or harmful. ALWAYS work with a licensed health care provider who uses FDA-approved products for treatments. Vials should be properly labeled and sealed. If your health care provider offers a procedure using a dermal filler that is much cheaper than similar procedures using FDA-approved dermal fillers, or if a product has labeling that looks strange or different than usual, beware.”The horror stories are out there, including people who have experienced cysts, scars, and even near-loss of their lips after messing around with these DIY kits.

Doree: Also, let's be real. I mean, the fact that you just sort of assumed that there was actual venom in the product is not a coincidence. They deliberately, I think, kind of played that up, or at least didn't make it totally clear that that was not the case. You know what I mean? DuWop Lip Venom is sulfate-free, petro-chemical-free, fragrance-free, dye-free, free of pthalates, no GMO's, no PPG's, no MEA's DEA's, TEA's, is formaldehyde-free, and triclosan-free. Atelocollagen is a water-soluble form of collagen used in cosmetics, often derived from animal products (you can read this suggested article from Dr. Sheffield for more info). And while we are absolutely not going to make any medical claims by saying this, it sounds like a way safer avenue than any online DIY lip injection kit. Kate: Okay. So, tell me what you know about this product. Doree, just me saying it, saying lip venom. What is it? What do you think of? Do anything about who makes it, do you know where you can get it, what it costs? What is your familiarity with lip venom?

Rich Deniro: The effects of lip venom last for about 20 minutes. The company says they were the first to invent the concept. Now there're about 30 copycat products. Well just be prepared to share Live in Studio six. I'm Troubleshooter Rich D Mural, K T A L, news Channel six. Kate: And today we are bringing you product recall, which is a weekly episode where we dig deeper into the history of an iconic product and it's impact. Anytime I came across some sort of article or visual representation, it was always on white women's faces. So that is where I'm kind of letting my thoughts. I think lip venom, it's not a product I'm going to ever reach for, although I will say I do the glossiness of it. The glossiness is kind of nice. It's been 20 minutes, but my lips are still shiny. The tingling is still there a little bit. It's wearing down. It's not a product I'm ever going to reach for. I know I've never really been drawn to lip plumpers either beyond the time when I used this in the 2000 threes and fours. But I am kind of using just my learning about this product as a means to remind myself to dig deeper into when I am participating in cultural appropriation, which look I know is all the time and not realizing it. So that's the history of Lip Venom Doree, a product that you can still get if you want, still out there. Working with Kerry Russell on the set of Felicity sparked the idea for our breakthrough product. After observing the incredibly full and pouty lips the actor had following her long and passionate kissing scenes, we became inspired to create a product that would mimic that same beautiful effect.

Doree: Well, she still had two younger children at home, but I don't, and don't know if this was a conscious thing, but it didn't seem coincidental to me that she really took to this show in a way that, I mean, my mom is also someone who gets very into TV shows, but she got very into Felicity to the point where when I lived in Fort Green in the mid aughts, so did Carrie Russell, the star of Felicity, and one day we saw her walking down the street and she passed us. We were walking one direction, she was walking in the other. And when she passes us, my mom turns to me and she goes, Oh my God. And was freaking out almost collapsing with ecstasy. And then she and Carrie had just had a baby, and my mom was like, you should offer to babysit . And I was like, mom, I'm not going to do that. Kate: She was mostly doing makeup. And I found an interview with her in which she told the story of how Lip Venom was created and where it kind of was the inception took place, and in the most late nineties way possible lip venom began on the set of the TV show. Felicity, Doree: Wasn't this Kylie Jenner's whole thing when she had at first clearly gotten lip filler and then told everyone that it was just her Kylie lip kit? Kate: A wild year. And that was when Lip Venom is a product put out by a company called DuWop. So DuWop was created and started in 1999 by two women, Christina Bartolucci and Laura Deluisa. Christina got her start doing hair and makeup on film and TV sets. Kate: Holy shit. Okay. Yeah. Well, this has taken a turn. Okay, Okay, well, this woman, Christina was a makeup artist on your mom's. favorite show Felicity. So here's what she said in this interview. She said, we launched due up in 1999. Our second product came out because if Carrie, meaning Carrie Russell had a scene where she was kissing anyone, her lips would get full and beautiful. My partner and I, her partner in DuWop tried to figure out how to recreate that flush on your lips that comes from kissing someone. So we created lip venom and the product was a hit. We experienced a trajectory that many companies experienced where we had a hit product, but we weren't sure how to build the company. Both creators of the company are no longer involved with it, just right off the bat. They've since gone on to do other projects themselves in kind of the beauty space. But I was fascinated that this was the origin.

DuWop

Kate: Hello and welcome to Forever 35, a podcast about the things we do to take care of ourselves. I'm Kate Spencer. With high-quality ingredients and a collection of cool, problem solving products that you can't live without; DuWop brings you “Modern Beauty Solutions.” Kate: Okay. I just want to go on the record and say that I think I did. Okay. Fair. So here's the story behind Lip Venom. It was created in 1999. My brief assessment,” says Dr. Sheffield about Too Faced, “[is it’s] a topical application to the lips, which I assume causes modest swelling of the lip, to enhance the fullness … The one photo shows a nice result, but there is no science or proof that a result will be like that in every person. I am unsure if atelocollagen is the product that causes the lip swelling.” Jennifer Pritch...: I don't know if I would use it every single day but maybe some special occasion when you're wanting to look is especially sensual.

The secret behind all Lip Venom's is a blend of essential oils, which include cinnamon, wintergreen, and ginger, that cause the blood to rush to the surface of the lips, flushing and swelling them slightly. The gloss also includes jojoba and avocado oil that moisturize and give the lips intense shine. You end up with a shiny, naturally rosy pout that cannot be achieved by wearing ordinary lip gloss. Kate: Okay, here we go. I'll also describe what I'm feeling. I really like to experiment with these products and product recall. And I should note, I have no lip filler or anything. I've done nothing. No lip augmentations. These are my natural lips, and I've coated it in lip venom. It has the taste of a bubble gum, like a minty bubble gum. DuWop's Lip Venom is the original lip plumper that sparked a revolution. Still holding its own among the imitators, this pout perfecting gloss gives you the ultimate bee-stung lips with one sleek sweep. Get your hands on this modern classic today! Doree: Yes. And then anytime my mom came to visit, she would be like, do you think we'll see Carrie Russell, Rich Deniro: Latest on the makers of lip venom prefer their product called a lip enhancer. They experimented with cayenne pepper and crushed mustard seeds, all in effort to irritate and inflate lips. the focus is on the faceKate: Yeah. As we'll discuss in a little bit, I can tell you all the ingredients in it, and I could have easily called the name lip Ginger. It. It's lip venom is a very deliberate marketing strategy. So here's a video clip I found featuring Christina, one of the co-founders of DuWop, and she is applying the product onto a model and kind of talking about it. So why don't we both take a beat and watch this? Kate: So this product kind of took hold during this time, and this was happening at a time when lip injections and lip filler was becoming more common, but it hadn't quite reached the peak of what we've seen in the last five to 10 years. So you'll see kind of the parallel, and it also kind of mirrors the obsession in, and when we say beauty, I'm talking about really white beauty culture, right? With bigger lips. So before we get into that a little bit deeper, I want to share with you, Doree, a news clip from a TexArkana, Texas local newscast called Test It Tuesday, in which a news anchor named rich tests out lip venom. Okay, Doree: Yes. My mother was obsessed with Felicity, obsessed, obsessed, loved Felicity. Now, could it have had something to do with the fact that I graduated college in 1999 and Felicity is a show about a girl who is in college. Jennifer Pritch...: It does feel like I've eaten a really hot pepper and I can't get it off my lips.
