I kissed a girl on our first date and my lips started to burn – I was shocked when I learned why it hurt

• Ottie Clarke kissed a woman on a first date and his lips started to burn
• The Aussie man couldn’t understand why and thought he was allergic to her 

A single man has described his shock after his lips began to ‘burn’ immediately after kissing his date.

Ottie Clarke co-hosts a podcast with his friend Jake Craig where the duo often discuss their dating lives.

In a recent episode of the show, Ottie revealed that he encountered a strange ‘burning’ sensation after kissing a woman on a first date. 

Ottie internally struggled with the fiery tingle and briefly thought he might be allergic to his date – but she soon explained the situation after the Aussie man brought it up.

The woman simply had a lip plumping gloss on, which contains mild irritants that cause blood vessels to expand, therefore causing a person’s lips to temporarily swell.

Ottie shared details about the experience in a video.

‘I was out with a woman, and as with all good dates, it ended with a kiss,’ he said.

‘We started hooking up in the car, and then we pull away and start talking again – but my lips start burning.

‘In my head, I thought – what the f***? I was going over the evening in my head – did we order pizzas with jalapeños on it? Am I allergic to my date? What’s happening?’

Ottie eventually caved and asked his date why her lips were ‘hot’.

The man then turned to friend and explained the concept of ‘lip plumpers’. 

‘Did you know girls use lip balm that is spicy and meant to puff your lips as a reaction to make them look bigger?’ Ottie asked Jake.

‘I thought I was being the biggest b***h, but it just f***ing hurt,’ he said.

Ottie revealed that most of his male friends had no idea about lip plumping glosses. 

‘I can’t believe girls put lip balm on and they purposely give themselves an allergic reaction to make their lips look bigger,’ Jake said, bewildered.

Many women shared their fondness for the item of makeup. 

‘The way I knew she was wearing lip plumper the second he mentioned his lips hurting!’ a woman said.

‘I love the burn, it’s just a little tingly lip gloss that puffs up your lips,’ another wrote.

‘I can’t even feel a thing when I put it on – but I love how it looks,’ a woman said.

Another shared that her boyfriend had a similar reaction to kissing her while she was wearing a plumping gloss.

‘My boyfriend acted like his lips were falling off,’ she revealed.

While some men couldn’t understand why women would use plumping glosses before dates. 

‘I get why you’d want to make your lips look bigger, but why would you wear it if you know you’re going to kiss a guy?’ one asked.

‘I don’t understand why women do these things,’ another said.
