Smell & Taste
This product is good but smell & taste is not pleasant.
Not what I was hoping for....
I purchased based on my experience with City Lips Night Oil, which I absolutely love. I thought I would have the same experience with the lip plumper but unfortunately that is not the case. I have been using it consistently hoping I'll see a good result, but so far I haven't really seen any lip plumping. I have the clear lip plumper and it does have a slight scent to it, that I don't like. If I had to describe it, it's like a coffee type smell. It goes on really thick and heavy and I feel like everything wants to stick to my lips, especially hair, when I put this on. The positive is that it does not sting. Also, when I put this on and wait a couple of minutes, I'll put the night oil on top and that seems to help, but stand alone, it's not my favorite. I was hoping I would love this as much as the night oil, but it's just not the case. I won't be purchasing this one again.
