What the gurus are saying

This balm earns warmth for being genuinely nice to wear, with a texture that works both as a treatment and a light gloss depending on how you apply it. The takes so far come from just a couple of voices, so there is not a huge amount of expert consensus to lean on yet, but what is there points to it being a solid, no-fuss choice for everyday lip care.

    "I am obsessed with how this feels, it is so moisturized, so nourishing, so everything. The finish is shiny, not super smoothing, [...] but that's fine because of how amazing this feels, and it lasts so long. [...] I'm not always in the mood for orange dreamsicle so this isn't something I'm reaching for every single day, [...] but 100% keeping because when I do want some orange dreamsicle this doesn't disappoint."

    "I would consider this to have longer wear. I love it, love love love this. [...] This is my kind of lip product. [...] I want more of these, I want more shades. I feel like the other two shades, if I'm remembering correctly, were just too dark, not things I think would look great on me. I just want a bunch of pinks and mauves and nudes, please, and just make them all birthday cake scented if you feel like it."

    "Just using this, this is the Ole Henriksel Pout Preserve Peptide Lip Treatment. It's really, really nice."

    "Ole Henriksen launched more shades in their Pout Preserve peptide lip treatments, and I'm obsessed with the strawberry one. I highly recommend you pick it up. It's a thicker lip treatment, but I like when a lip treatment feels like it's going to stay on the lips and really hydrate. Plus it has a nice pink tint and tastes like strawberries."

    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.

    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.

    Source: NIH, National Library of Medicine

    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.
