Pros: a little goes a long way, convenient in use, easy to use, it gives good moisture, the product makes my lips softer to the touch
Cons: the result doesn’t last long

I don’t have lip problems like chapped or bleeding, so I’ll speak only about my experience with this product which just has emollient features.

I saw this product on eBay. Since I didn’t know this brand before, I googled and eventually decided to order this product, as winter was coming. Smile It was just the right time to replenish my lip product collection with some SOS product.

From this mask I expected good nourishing effects and moisture. I also didn’t want it to make my lips feel sticky or greasy. All in all I wanted that effect as from a chapstick to wake up in the morning with my lips looking beautiful and ready for kisses. Smile And I can say that this mask completely lived up to my expectations Smile

Package

It’s a cylindrical plastic peachy-colored jar with a screw-on top. Initially the jar was safely sealed with an inner liner. The scent of the lip mask is unobtrusive and fruit-like. The jar itself is also of a peachy shade, though on the skin it looks almost transparent. The texture is thick, as though of butter.

Volume - 5g

Use

I apply this mask over my lips with a thick layer after washing my face. I literally take the tiniest bit of it. The product starts melting on my lips very quickly, turning into a liquid butter on my lips. This consistency is very easy to smear over my lips, massaging them at the same time. I don’t experience any unpleasant feelings, there are no feelings in general. No thickness feelings, greasy or tightening effects. The product feels as though a lightweight lip balm. In the morning I wake up and again I don’t experience any feel on my lips. I don’t have to use any other products either.

Impressions of use

I expected the regular lip care like nourishment and moisture from this mask, which it beautifully gives me. My skin feels softer to the touch, it’s true. I haven’t noticed any dead skin cells melting, this is why I usually use a lip scrub before this mask.

The most important thing to me is the absence of unpleasant sensations over my lips with this mask on. Since childhood I hate the feelings of those greasy chapsticks on my lips. In general, this mask works like the hyped Carmex lip balm. And I have to say that Carmex is one of my faves when it comes to my lip care.

If you expect to wake up in the morning with your lips supple and beautiful like with after the use of collagen patches, alas, you won’t get it with this mask. Smile But it will beautifully moisturize your lips.

I assess this product with 4 stars, because I presume that as a lip overnight mask, it could have been better and more efficient for the price.

 

Take into consideration that the volume of the content is just 5g which is a third of this cute jar Smile

The rest of the jar is just empty. I can’t actually show it right in the photo, but if you look through the jar on the light, you’ll actually see that emptiness.

I can’t also say anything about the healing properties of this product, as I don’t have anything to heal on my lips. In general, I’m delighted with the result I see, hence I recommend this lip mask for purchasing.

 

I bought it for $4 on ebay.
