What do you think is better for me to get? I'd get the lip liner to make my lips look bigger but maybe I should actually just make them bigger?

Don't get permanant lip liner. You'd be forced to wear makeup 24/7 in order to not look like a complete idiot... and don't get a collagen injection either. It's better to try the plumping lipstick, but DON'T go for the things that claim to be plumping lipstick... there is a product which has already come out (Avon has only just begun to catch to the trend) that you will be able to find in any Shoppers Drug Mart... just ask an employee there and they'll show you... it's a clear gloss type thing that actually works like collagen... you have to reapply it every few days but its a hell of a lot better than injecting yourself with something so unnatural

speaking from family experience and even experience from work, never do the permanent lip liner or any permanent make up. the reason is that the shape of your lip will change with age and it will look horrible. have seen this happen. also it limits you in so may ways.
i do not believe the lip plumping systems really work so i will not suggest one.
however, go to a reputable plastic surgeon for a consultation. there are many other options now a days other than collagen. i think you can use restilyn in your lips and that is less dangerous as it is made from somekind of sugar. collagen may cause alleric reactions and if you do not go to a very good plastic surgeon, it can be a disaster.
until then, i recommend using the illusion of lipliner, light colour lipstick and well placed gloss to make your lips look fuller.
trust me, you want to avoid the permanent make up. it is aging and not a good long term solution. most people regret it down the road.

Hold on! Don't get injections just yet! There is a new collagen product coming out soon from Avon that has had dramatic results. You apply it like lipstick, and it absorbs into your lips to increase their size and smoothness. I can't wait to try it! Keep watching the website below for it to be released.

There are products out there that can give a similar effect with out surgery or pain. Look out for the lip plumping lipstick that the first respondent is talking about. I am in Australia and have had the same sort of product here from Avon. It works atreat.

You can always have a combination. I'd go for restylane though instead of collagen. Have lipliner to define the lip border and then restylane to give fullness to the meaty part of the lips. HTH : )

Have you ever seen the celebs who get their lips injected with Collagen? They usually end up looking ridiculous! I'm sure that you are beautiful the way you are. Accept yourself and be happy.

collagen for sure, lip liner is permanent, why would you always want a line there. get collagen, go for the real effect

Lip liner on the outer line of your lips (not outside the line).
