What the gurus are saying

This minty lip plumper gloss wins over people who enjoy that tingle and want hydration in a pretty finish. Gurus praise how it hydrates dry lips during the day and delivers a satisfying minty sensation without being overwhelming, though it does have a slight stickiness that some find charming rather than off-putting. The shade Dolly stands out as a favorite.

"I always stock up on my Buxom Full On Lip Cream in the sale. This is like a minty lip plumper gloss. The shade I love most is Dolly. [...] I love the minty tingle, it just feels so good and they're so hydrating. If you're struggling with dry lips, put this on instead of like a heavy [...] balm during the day. It makes your lips look so good and if you like that minty tingle, which I do, you'll love it."

"The Buxom lip creams are a product category where I feel like I shouldn't like these, they do not tick the boxes for what I like in a lip product, they are a little minty, they are a little sticky, but somehow I do like them, they look really pretty on. [...] Every time I put these on I actually really like them, I think it's just that the characteristics I don't like are not too prominent, it's not too minty, it's not too sticky, it's just really pretty."

What the evidence says.

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

Retinoids

Retinoids are among the best studied ingredients in dermatology, with solid evidence for acne and for the fine lines and rough texture that come from sun exposure. Dryness and flaking in the first few weeks are common and usually settle.

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.

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.
