BUXOM Power-Full Plumping Lip Balm, Tinted Lip Balm Plumper, Enhancing Lip Moisturizer, Hydrating & Smoothing Peptide Lip Treatment, Cruelty-Free

I have been using this for years. It makes your lips soft with a little color

As always , Buxom lip plumping balm is excellent . Even though it doesn’t have a narrow point ,it always covers the bow and edges of my lips sooooooooo perfectly without my even looking in a mirror . Really !! I can reapply this balm anywhere , check later , and it is always on perfectly . Yes , it sounds vain. Nevertheless my lips have no lines or wrinkles around them . Actually they often don’t have lines on them because of the plumping action . I have often been accused of being a perfectionist . Well , I do certain things exceptionally well and taking care of my face is on that list . I am smiling !! I am wearing Buxom lip plumping balm and Buxom lip gloss and Buxom Dolly blush , Buxom mascara and Buxom Demure Dolly eyeliner . I look good : )

OK so I love the texture of the lip balm & appreciate its smoothing/blurring effect for lip lines. It does give some plumping w/o burning & the fat rounded balm stick is satisfying to apply, but OH, the color. I bought Big O thinking it would be maybe a nude wash with the tiniest bit of pink that would perhaps develop a BIT over time; Think pink marshmallow from Lawless, super pretty & easy & just “slightly better than natural” but w/hopefully more color or depth. I put this on in the AM after doing my makeup & went off to do whatever else was needed before work. I went back to undo my heatless curls right before leaving, so ~40mins later & what had gone on as a nice mild color wash like I was hoping for had transformed into a 80’s Barbie HOT PINK. Don’t get me wrong, I love Barbie & hot pink but the vividness of the color, for a lip balm, was unbelievable. It looked like hot pink lipstick that had faded from a few hours of wear, but lipstick bright. Definitely not what I was after & I’m super bummed about it, but I love the texture & the unexpected but neutral hot pink color so much that I’m keeping it for when I want that look. So! If you’re looking for a lip balm that can give you lipstick color in a gloriously neutral hot pink, this is it!!

I love this stuff. I would call this a minty gloss. Leaves a significant stain if applied two or more times. Considerably pink in the "O" color. I also use it as a blush occasionally if I'm in the car and look pale. This is great stuff. It's pricey but my previous tube lasted for years.

This is a nice balm to use when your lips are fully moisturized. My tip for moisturizing: apply Lanoliops overnight (100% pure lanolin, not recommended for people with allergies to lanolin). I find that Lanolips is more effective than Aquaphor Healing Ointment. If you want, try applying a very small amount of L’Oréal Revitalift 10% pure glycolic acid to lips. DO NOT EAT IT! It tastes bad (kind of citrusy/acidic) so try to avoid tasting it. Wait for the acid to dry down and then apply Lanoliops on top of the glycolic acid. This balm has slight cooling sensation from the peppermint ingredient. I love peppermint, but it is an irritating ingredient that should not be put on lips. This balm did not plump my lips and added a little moisture. I found that after a while, I would have to reach for my Aquaphor Healing ointment for my lips. The color is nice and subtle. The big rounded crayon tip makes it easy to apply this to lips. I recommend this product if you really love one of the featured colors. Just know that this contains peppermint which can be irritating to sensitive skin (i.e., lips). If you want a natural, glossy, and moisturizing option, try the Neugtrogena Hydro Boost Hydrating Lip Shine. No irritating mint, offers a little more moisture than this balm, has more color choices, and only costs about $10.00 which is cheaper than this balm.

Moist and natural glow with just right amount of color.

I have one of these in every purse. Love the soft pink/ natural color. It moisturizes very nicely and the subtle plumping is great. I highly recommend this product.

Keeps my lips moisturized with a splash of color! Definitely tingles when applied to lips - not quite sure on the plumping capabilities as my lips stayed the same size. The Big “O” is pinkish in color. I like the Dolly fever (more grapey) as well! This balm has been my go to for years. I just throw it in my work bag. The only issue it tends to wear off quickly and I find myself reapplying often!

came broken and lip balm stick wobbled out of stick when opened cap lost half as got messy and hard put stick back into tube

Mary Orton recommended in one of her blogs and OMG it's been my favorite balm ever in like 4 years. It used to be sold at the pharmacy but not anymore so got it here. Shade is fabulous and classy ! Very hydrating and easy to apply on the go, quite fun, people always ask me about it.

Although the product is great, it arrived broken and nearly impossible to use.

Product arrived today, actually the tube arrived without any product inside. Top of tube was not sealed and the balm is missing.

I was soooo excited to try this but it came with the product out of the container;(
