The Ultimate Guide to Lip Plumpers

18.12.2023 | Skincare

Plump lips are back on trend but, if you’re searching for the ultimate fuller, healthy-looking lips without compromising your lip skin barrier or opting for filler then read on. Our first lip plumping treatment sent the internet into a frenzy with many commenting on our Co-Founder Colette’s 4-week before and after that she must have had lip fillers. But the secret really is our Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm. Here’s how to maximise your lip plumper for the perfect your lips but filler effect...   
 

What is a lip plumper?   

Available in many forms from glosses to lip balms, lip plumpers are designed to increase lip volume and create temporary fullness, giving you the appearance of plump lips without the need for cosmetic procedures.   


What does a lip plumper do? 
 

Traditionally, cosmetic lip plumping products are formulated with ingredients which can cause irritation to the lips, creating that infamous tingling sensation. However, these ingredients can do more harm than good by compromising the barrier, allow bacteria to enter and ultimately dry the skin out and leave your lips prone to damage and cracking.   
 
Our innovative Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm breaks the mould. Specially formulated for maximum fullness and lip care, this triple-action lip care hydrates, repairs, and plumps lips leaving them naturally fuller and healthier-looking without compromise. So now your lips not only look plumper but, ARE plumper. No filter, no filler, just fuller.  
 

How long does lip plumper last?  

In our clinical trials, a visible increase in lip volume was seen in as little as 2 weeks. Everyone's skin is different, but for best results, we would recommend using Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm at least 3X per day (including your AM and PM skincare routine). Like many skincare products, to maintain the benefits you need to continue use of the product.  
  

Does lip plumper burn your lips?  

While some cosmetic lip plumpers create a ‘burning’ sensation when applied, Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm has been specially formulated to deliver the plump results you want without irritation. This nourishing balm contains ingredients which help to maintain the skin barrier and retain moisture whilst visibly enhancing lip volume. The balm delivers the same lip plumping power you expect but, in a good-for-lips way.  

Are lip plumpers safe?

The lips are the thinnest skin on your face and because the skin here is so delicate, to keep the lips nourished and healthy, it is important to avoid any products that can cause irritation. Our Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm has been formulated to deliver maximum fullness and lip care so you can get the fuller-looking results you want without compromising your skin.
 

How to apply lip plumper  

To maximize delivery of the active ingredients, we recommend applying Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm to clean, dry lips and reapply at least 3X per day. The clear lip plumping balm leaves a natural sheen on the lips which can be worn alone or over lip color for a smooth, glossy finish.
