    "I love the big doe foot applicator. This is really great because it's not too pigmented. A lot of the lip oils that are tinted have a lot of pigment in them, and [...] you really have to be careful where you're putting them on. [...] This one is so nice and sheer that I can just put it on. I don't need to check myself in a mirror. It looks great. I love the smell of this so much. It smells like fresh watermelon and it feels so good on the lips."

    "And from the first use, I absolutely loved it. [...] It's got a big oversized doe foot applicator. It's a really nice shade of pink. And what I love most about it is the smell. It smells like fresh watermelon. What I love about this is the sheen on the lips. It is just such so perfect. It's not like a hard shine. It doesn't feel sticky or gloopy. Doesn't taste like anything, but yet it smells really nice. And it just deposits the right amount of color for a lip gloss."

    "The YSL lip oil was also my holy grail this year. They have a warm color and a cool color, the cool one is a little purple and shiny, it's great, and the packaging is pretty."

    "This contains spicy ginger and spicy oils and this has a warm sensation. It's not hot from my experience with it. It has a light warm sensation if that makes sense. And there is a little bit of a tingliness which might last 10 to 15 minutes tops and then it subsides. But your lips do plump up. You get that fuller look. This gives that juiciness and it's also very hydrating. This doesn't make my lips dry. It doesn't make my lips feel uncomfortable. It does provide a lot of hydration."

    What the evidence says.

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

    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.

    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.
