    What the gurus are saying

    The melty, juicy texture is what stands out most, and it really does melt on your lips. It delivers a gentle plumping effect without irritation, so anyone can use it comfortably, and the creamy, hydrating formula feels nice. With multiple shades to choose from, there's something for different preferences.

    "The balms are a 3-in-1 gloss balm and plumper for max hydration. And there's quite a few shades to choose from in these. These give me very much Korean inspired. I actually have a lot of Korean lip products like this, including these from 3CE, which are like a balm that you wind up, and it's plump. So we have a bit of influence there, I wonder."

    What the evidence says.

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

    Ceramides

    Ceramides are part of the skin's own barrier, and moisturisers built around them have evidence for holding water in and settling the tightness and flaking that come with a damaged barrier.

    Humectants and emollients

    Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.

    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.
