However, if your skin is very sensitive, or you are pregnant or nursing, it is suggested that you consult a physician before trying this method. Cinnamon oil, when applied to the lips, can also reduce anxiety associated with motion sickness while traveling.

The cinnamon mildly irritates the skin on your lips, causing them to redden and swell slightly, producing that tingly feeling. If you feel a burning, uncomfortable sensation rather than a tingling one, remove the mixture completely from your lips and start over, creating the mixture with 1 drop of cinnamon leaf oil rather than 2. After a few more minutes pass with the mixture on your lips, you'll notice your lips slowly start to plump and redden slightly, creating a very natural looking pout. This effect will last several hours. Once the effect wears off, you can reapply your mixture as needed, using it just like a lip gloss.
