In general, my parents blessed me with some very solid genes; I inherited a thick, healthy head of hair, my dad\u2019s full eyebrows, and my mom\u2019s olive complexion. But I never lucked out in the lip department. They\u2019re perfectly fine and cute, but I wouldn\u2019t describe them as pouty or naturally plump. Fortunately, I\u2019ve found that half a vial \u2014 and not a drop more\u00a0\u2014 of Volbella works wonders to add a bit of fullness that still looks natural. I don\u2019t get filler like clockwork (mostly because it hurts and my lips bruise very easily), but rather whenever I notice them looking a little thin or a month before a special occasion. However, it\u2019s been over five months since I\u2019ve last gotten my lips injected \u2014 and this drugstore lip plumper is the reason why.<\/p>\n
French drugstore brand RoC is perhaps best known for its retinol products, but its new Derm Correxion Lip Volumizer<\/a> is a must-try, IMHO. For needle-phobes like me, plumping glosses and treatments are a game-changer for achieving fuller lips. I\u2019ve tried ones that burn with the fire of a million scovilles and others that sadly don\u2019t do much of anything. Then there are the rare ones that work beautifully \u2014\u00a0but come with a triple-digit price tag. (I love Ourself\u2019s Lip Filler<\/a>, but at $145, I ration it.)\u00a0<\/p>\n RoC\u2019s Derm Correxion Lip Volumizer goes on as a clear glossy balm and has only a hint of minty tingle upon application \u2014\u00a0no burning or stinging. (The metal tip also enhances the cooling effect.) It adds a slight flush to lips but nothing like the inflamed, reddish swelling that I\u2019ve experienced with other plumping glosses. (Let\u2019s just say that Too Faced Lip Injection Maximum Plump is not for the faint of heart.)\u00a0<\/p>\n While RoC\u2019s lip volumizer features capsicum frutescens fruit extract (derived from the cayenne chilli pepper plant) as well as ginger root oil, these ingredients very gently boost blood flow to the lips \u2014 and that\u2019s when it starts to work its magic: It gives my lips a kiss of rosy color (they are naturally a pale purplish pink) and visibly fills them out. Plus, unlike other plumping glosses, I feel like RoC\u2019s actually hydrates my lips from the inside out, thanks to some tried and true ingredients.<\/p>\n One of the hero ingredients is hyaluronic acid \u2014 the same stuff that\u2019s in most cosmetic fillers as well as topical skincare products. Hyaluronic acid is beloved for its ability to hydrate the deepest levels of the skin and lend a plumping effect that softens fine lines and refines texture. Unsurprisingly, it has the same benefit for your lips, thanks to its moisture-binding properties that offer short- and long-term hydration to smooth and soften sin.\u00a0<\/p>\n Next, there\u2019s one of my all-time favorite skincare ingredients: Peptides<\/a>. I love peptide serums and moisturizers since they nourish and strengthen my skin barrier. RoC\u2019s pro-collagen peptide complex not only improves the elasticity and appearance of lips but reduces the appearance of wrinkles and enhances lip shape and contours. If all that wasn\u2019t enough, RoC\u2019s lip volumizer also contains squalane and shea butter for hydration, which is partially why I find it so similar to a lip balm \u2014 because it pretty much is one!<\/p>\n In addition to an immediate, temporary plumping effect after just one use, the brand also touts long-term results with regular application, so I\u2019ll be sure to report back once I\u2019ve finished my first tube. <\/p>\n At $30, it\u2019s not the cheapest lip plumper I\u2019ve tried, but it\u2019s certainly nowhere near the most expensive. (For comparison, a single lip filler session in the US averages around $742<\/a>, but can exceed $1,000.) The key takeaway is that it just plain works (see my before-and-after photos for photographic proof), minus the uncomfortable spiciness that comes with capsaicin-based plumpers. Dare I say, the perfect lip plumper doesn\u2019t ex\u2014<\/p>\n Like what you see?
