Shoppers are left 'pleasantly surprised' after testing out the new lip balm

From Jess Hunt’s Refy gloss and Hailey Bieber’s Rhode peptide lip treatment to the much-loved Dior oil, it seems hydrated, glossy lips are in this autumn/winter - and it’s a trend we’re more than happy to jump on.

Thanks to Inkey List, we have a new lip balm to add to our ever-growing collection - and unlike the other’s we mentioned above, this one comes with magical plumping abilities - so you can say hello to fuller looking lips in just four weeks.

Having racked up an impressive 20,000 person wait list, the £10.99 Inkey List Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm has finally dropped online - and the positive reviews are already flooding in, with beauty fans left ‘shocked’ at the quick results.

It's been clinically proven to give you fuller looking lips in just four weeks

Packed with nourishing ingredients like shea butter, mango seed, myriad plant oils and hyaluronic acid, the multi-tasking formula boosts your skin’s moisture levels and strengthens your skin barrier to protect overall lip health, all while visibly enhancing lip volume within a matter of weeks.

If you’re opting for the glazed donut vibe, this balm is for you as it leaves a natural sheen on the lips which can be worn alone or over lip colour for that glossy finish.

Plenty of delighted customers have already left five-star reviews on the Inkey List website, praising the balm for its ‘surprising plumping results’ and ‘hydrating texture.’

One shopper said: “I've been using it for almost two weeks, I am starting to see some definite plumping now. But even without the plumping, this is a lovely lip balm, I can apply it and it lasts for so long unlike my normal lip balm which I feel I'm constantly reapplying. My lips feel so soft and constantly hydrated. Huge improvement.”

A second added: “While it may not have the most pleasant taste, it excels in every other aspect. This lip balm has worked wonders for my dry lips, making them plump and incredibly hydrated. I've never experienced such softness before. Plus, it has no discernible scent and isn't sticky at all - a must-try for anyone looking to nourish their lips.”

While a third said: “Omg I’m shocked at the results within just two weeks! I’ve always wanted big lips but I'm very against fillers, Botox etc and even friends have noticed the difference after using this balm - so impressed.”

Many shoppers love that the product doesn’t sting or burn your lips, like other plumping glosses out there, however some were a little disappointed at the unpleasant ‘metallic’ taste.

If you’re wanting to jump on the clear gloss hype, you can pick up the plumping lip balm at Inkey List, Boots, Cult Beauty or Look Fantastic now for just £10.99.
