The gloss is nice and lasts a good amount of time, but it does nothing to plump my thin lips. Very disappointed in that aspect, since that is why I purchased two lipgloss "plumpers." These are definitely NOT worth the price for just lip gloss…
Nothing more than an expensive/over priced lip gloss. It is hydrating enough but that is all it has going for it. Don't get suckered in by all the hype on social media, this is NOT a miracle in a tube. It did not fade away or "plump" any lip lines and did not give my lips a fuller appearance.
I purchased the City Lips Plumping Lip Gloss Hydrate and Nourish and although I like the feel of the product the smell and taste are just awful. It smells like burned coffee grounds and dirty socks and tastes worse.
I bought this product when it first came out and it did nothing to diminish my lip lines at all! It's tingling lip gloss that plumped my lips a bit but again it's lip gloss so it's very temporary.
I don't like it. It does moisturise, but it does not feel good on my lips. It glosses them, but so does paw paw cream. I didn't see thw results that were advertised.
This lip gloss, does seem to work. But the downside is, it is so sticky my hair catches on my lips etc. So this product does not work well for me.
This makes for a nice shiny lip gloss but as far as plumping up your lips it just did not do that for me. My over the counter lip plump did way more than this product did. And as far as it staying on my lips, it didn't last a hot minute! Sadly disappointed.
After seeing the hype I was excited to try this lip gloss. I felt a tiny bit of tingling but then nothing. My lips were not enhanced in the slightest and it also felt really sticky and thick.
I bought 3 tubes of the city lip plumper but not sure I like it very very dry maybe I got a wrong batch or something. Was hoping for something better
Was very excited to order this product. I've been using it for about 2 weeks every day and night and nothing. Maybe gives a little bit of moisture but no plumping as they say at all. I ordered Plum Springs.
Using the lip plumper consistently morning and night for the last 3 weeks. No visible difference at all. I will continue to use twice a day as I hope to see results!
I have used the clear in the past, love it, so ordered one colored. I put it on awhile ago. It is very runny, bleeds beyond my lips. The clear is sticky, and adheres well. I would not buy a colored one again.
Product makes my lips soft, but I can't say that it makes them look larger, which I wasn't necessarily expecting. I use it at night only, because it doesn't mix well with the lip color product I wear during the day.
Goes on initially very well. An hour or so later it dried lips out...broke out in red blotches above upper lip and below lower lip. Horrible itching! How are folks seeing this product as good??? I'm not understanding it at all. Extremely misinformed by reviews!! Not natural ingredients as advertised.
I do already have small lips and it did work a little bit for me but I was wondering if there's something maybe a little more advanced or is that it. Meaning I guess is there something a little more powerful for people like my lips.
I tried to order this online, not sure the order went through, i tried 3 times to contact the company to see and they would never respond to me. Absolutely wouldn't do this again.
The lip gloss is very thick and sticky so it is very difficult to feel natural with it. I will return it and I wanted to make sure that other women knew because I would have never ordered it if I had known it was so thick and sticky. I just hope they will take it back
This does not provide a plumping effect for me. I find the formula to be sticky

Just a basic lipgloss / did nothing . It did not plump my lips at all . Should have stuck with the brand I already used.
