Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s Lips Have A “Life Of Their Own”

“They get really, really red when I’m angry or passionate and pale when I’m miserable or tired. They have a life of their own. They get me in trouble. You know mood rings? I’ve got mood lips … They are one thing I don’t have to work on.”

—Victoria’s Secret model and “Transformers 3″ star Rosie Huntington-Whiteley talks to Australian Maxim about what she deems a medical oddity, her ginormous lips.

Quick Tip Of The Day: Moisturize Your Lips After Washing Your Face

I’ve had a difficult time keeping my lips moist and smooth, despite using Neosporin Lip Health religiously. I know it’s become colder lately, but I didn’t think that was the only culprit.
