Infamous A-BEST 2 from 2007: http://www.greatful-days.net/reflect...?image_id=2030
GUILTY cover, 2008: http://stylejapan.files.wordpress.co.../12/guilty.jpg
Undated, but it's nothing recent for sure http://7hotasiangirls.com/d/34973-2/...llery+_21_.jpg

So those are just a few things I found in like 5 minutes. I really think that either a) it's just something she's always gone in and out of being into, or b) her lips are naturally bigger and her makeup artists want to show them off.

I don't really think this is collagen because her lips don't ALWAYS look like that. Just sayin'.

I know the A BEST 2 covers weren't everyone's cup of tea but I just have to say they really emphasize how STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL her face is...

her lips always was big

[kagami]

As everyone else has said, it's just make-up. Ayu has taken to lining outside her lips recently (though she has done it in the past before too) and she is wearing a lot of lip plumper. Pics of her her with no/ very little make-up show she looks exactly the same as she always has.

LOL, everyone is posting utterly over-photoshopped fake-pictures of Ayu's lips for comparison? About time to remind you guys on fan-made close-up photos from LA era to prove that her lips still look very decent, just like 15 years ago:

If you ask me, personally I think, these lips look absolutely natural. These close-up should end this discussion, it's too obvious that people are creating new plastic surgery rumors for no real reason.

I don't care personally, because if she has had work done, it's in her favor. And if not, she ages well.

I found Ayumi really ugly in her old, old modeling shots when she was younger, and I never found her attractive until around 2004. She looks the best she ever has in 2008-2010 imo.

i admit that ayu's lips recently look so weird in recent live performances and also the PVs..
and somehow i think she does botox to her lips?, not sure though~
but either way,it could be just the lipgloss she's using, i think that could make our lips look "thicker" and bigger haha~
and also it's just bcoz her lips basically already seem so big, then they put on lipgloss, that automatically make ayu's lips even BIGGER haha XDD

i actually want ayu's lips!! it's sexyy!! XDDD

Yeah, they actually contain a mild poison that will cause your lips to puff up in reaction. I tried one once because it was the freebie in a magazine and my lips stang like a mofo. It really sucked xD

I think it's a combo of that lip stuff coming back into fashion along with big, full and pouty lips along with Ayu's general fashion direction. She wants to look more suited to upper fashion than the casual look she had years ago. As such she does overdramatic facial expression by nature

Sure she maybe had some collagen too to minimise wrinkles but it's so freaking common that it's not such a huge issue. Besides, she still has tonnes of facial epression, so she didn't have enough to freeze her face or anything lol

yeah, ayu naturally has full lips, so she really doesn't need the lip plumper and stuff or else they'll just look way too big sometimes. you gotta admit in pics like these they look pretty off and make it look like she got work done:

but they don't look like that all the time, which imo is good since I don't find lips that take up most of your face very appealing lol

[pop909]

I dont think doing any plastic or collagen or knife-work is at all "losing identity".

many people in the general public (not fans, but just people) think she has done it anyways, so this case is no different from what people think, whether or not it confirms the rumor.

[waterballoon]

maybe if she used another brand other than Rimmel London her lips wouldn't look like she ate jalapenos or something lol

Really bad example. Only real photoshots from Paparazzis or fans are usefull, because magazin photoshots etc. are just the result of computer technology. You can fake everything on professional Photoshop works, so why not just post unedited pictures like I did?

[ayudist]

i think her covers have photoshoped lips because ayu still looks lovely live!

[toniayu]

i became to see her lips weird since this summer i was sure that she has botox because in love song pv her lips looks so,so,so weird and BIG,but about the pics that shisheido put...if are real photos of this year i think that the BIG lips of love songs era only are effect of the make up.
ayu is beautiful with lips big,with lips weird,with all xD

[ayu_ready?]

I also think her lips are quite weird, especially in crossroad when she's in the TV, looks like she got a surgery done
I think she did do something to her lips
and obviously she also did some surgery on the nose before, druing NL

surgery or not, now her face looks too strange sometimes

true. I wasn't trying to prove she had anything done with those pics though, just saying they made it look that way with the editing/make-up.
here are some caps from HD lives, first is from 2001, second from 2010. her lips look the same to me, just different shades of lipstick/gloss

I doubt she got anything done... Her lips never have been super thin. I think she just uses a plumper and fish pose too much xD

[rusuke]

When I saw "crossroad" I was shocked because of her lips! But when I saw the making shot is thinner. I really think it's because of make-up ( I hope).XD

[Kanzaki]

Losing her identity?
I lol'ed so hard when I read that.

Imo she can do whatever she wants to her looks, her personality and creativity means a whole lot more to me. I'm buying her albums, not her face. She could get F-cup boobs and I'd still be a fan.

[zaqwanbadli]

We're used to see her lips thin, but it's nothing new when they're set in fish pucker pose.

Ayu in the "crossroad" PV looks very... not Ayu.
Make-up's guilty.

Anyhow, I prefer the thin-lipped Ayu.
Sometimes, her lips look too thin, though. I wonder how she does that?

Make-up. Something I couldn't really understand its powers.

[PoetGirl]

its make up. Nowadays we have lipsticks that cause allergic reaction and your lips are bigger.

I know it sounds crazy but ... women. they will buy everything.
