What they liked

Creamy, smooth glide
Rich pigment for the price

What they flagged

Nothing. None of the experts who reviewed it raised a problem.

What the gurus are saying

The creamy texture glides on smoothly and applies without tugging, which reviewers found made their lip colour look finished and polished. The pigment is stronger than expected, so the shade shows up clearly even with a light hand. Both testers were pleased with how it paired with their lip products overall.

"I don't think my lips are the best to do this on because my top lip kind of has quite a deep set... So when I overdraw it, you can kind of just see that I've just overdrawn it, but I do like... It's nice."

What the evidence says.

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

Vitamin C

Topical vitamin C is an antioxidant with reasonable evidence for dullness and uneven tone. It breaks down in light and air, so how a product is formulated and packaged matters as much as the percentage on the front.

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.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
