COSRX - ElisabetMolinaAndres review for Refresh AHA BHA Vitamin C Lip Plumper

⚪️@cosrx Refresh AHA BHA Vitamin C Lip Plumper ⚪️ ⚪️What it claims: “An energizing, multitasking lip plumper that visibly voluminizes, smooth and hydrates your lips. Contains AHA and BHA that gently exfoliate to eliminate chapped, flaky lips, while Volufiline and Vitamin C bring lips to their ultimate state of health and vitality”. ⚪️Price: 20,35€ per 20g at @yesstyle ⚪️How to use: Apply it evenly to create the look of smooth, voluminized lips. ⚪️Main ingredients: Shea Butter (occlusive), Butylene glycol (humectant), Petrolatum (occlusive), Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (brightening and anti-aging), Citric Acid (exfoliant, anti-aging), Betaine Salicylate (acne-fighting). ⚪️First impression: Girl! This stings like hell! And there’s definitely some plumbing effect. Maybe too lightweight for my dry eczema-prone lips. ⚪️Final thoughts: I bought this one because I fancied something with chemical exfoliants for my lips. I didn’t care about the voluminizing effect, but the stinging sensation of the voluminizing ingredients does bother me. I also hoped it had stronger acids in it, such as salicylic acid and lactic acid, because I wanted to replace my lip scrub with this. I don’t like to use it during the day because the acids in it make my skin more sensitive to sunlight. I don’t feel it’s thick and moisturizing enough to use it as a sleeping pack. I ended up using it some nights before my night routine, but it wasn’t good enough. All in all, I think this lip balm is not worth it, specially for its price. I’m not going to repurchase it.
