What the gurus are saying

The dual-ended design with a blending brush on one side earns consistent praise for how easily it blends and how well color stays put all day. The creamy formula glides without dragging, a quality reviewers specifically value. The 'plumping' name is misleading though, as it offers no actual plumping sensation, and those who prefer thinner pencil liners may find the thicker tip less appealing.

"The Buxom Power line, you get a ton of product, so these really last, and you also get a brush on the other side."

"Buxom is included, their lip liners are my favorite, actually, the Power Line lip liners. These are my favorites, I might grab another of these."

Favorites & Fails (Shocking, I Know!) | March 2024

"I clearly have favorite lip liners, and it's these Buxom Power Line liners, they're so easy to work with. The one I'm wearing today is Dangerous Dolly, I thought it might be too large of a tip initially but it's really not, and because you get a brush on the other side it's so easy to blend these out. They're creamy, they glide beautifully, and one of my pet peeves with lip liner is if it drags, I cannot stand that, but these glide and they stay all day, my lip gloss wore off ages ago but I still have this lip liner on."

"This is the Power Line Plumping Lip Liner in the twist up style, which isn't my preference, I prefer just the old school pencil style. I do feel like I understand why more brands are releasing this style though, because I've read reviews on your good old pencil liners where people say things like you can only get three uses from this and then it's garbage."

"This is the Buxom Powerline plumping lip liner in Dolly Light. I don't know why it's called plumping, it doesn't spice your lips or anything like that. I'm not the biggest fan of these thicker angled lip liners, but this color is really beautiful."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Alpha hydroxy acids

Alpha hydroxy acids loosen the bonds holding dead cells at the surface. The evidence supports smoother texture and more even tone over time, and they can leave skin more sensitive to sun.

Sunscreen filters

Sun protection is the best evidenced way to slow visible ageing, and the filters are what does the work. Mineral and chemical filters both protect when a product is applied thickly enough and often enough, which is where most people fall short rather than on the choice of filter.

Peptides

Peptides are short protein fragments meant to signal repair. The evidence for them is thinner than for retinoids or vitamin C, and it varies a lot by the specific peptide, so the category is more promising than proven.
