Remember that skincare is extremely personal to everybody's skin. What works for me, may not work for you. But I hope my videos give you some good ideas for products, techniques, and Ingredients to try.
Also, I'm obviously not a dermatologist or a doctor, so all opinions on products and anything else I'm presenting, are results and findings from my own experience and research.
And that's why I'm here, to share my research and my findings that go further than what is said on the bottle or Google!
But, everything I present is always a discussion for you to join in with :)
If you have any serious skin concerns, please see a dermatologist/doctor.

    Got to say I absolutely loved Kelly’s contribution. Would be here for more of her reviews she was great
  • @beatlebums
    I am SUCH a smell-oriented person, if a product smells bad, or if it's a lippie and it tastes horrendous (more than it should) when it gets in your mouth, I immediately return it, lol
  • @riccandjen
    Inkey Lists' biggest problem is the packaging. I really don't feel they put enough into getting the right packaging for the right product. Worst one is the oat cleanser, it's so hard to use the last quarter of the product without cutting the bloody tube open.
  • @mayamelagia
    I've been using this since it launched and yes it works for me. I had almost no lips and now I have lips lol. Of course it's a subtle difference, but a definite difference. I also like it as a moisturiser. It does not leave my lips dry when it wears off like Vaseline and other lip balms do. The trick to not getting a mouthful of petroleum flavour is to use just enough without slathering it on. And of course don't lick your lips.
  • @Leo-km2or
    I saw this at boots and i wanted to wait for someone credible to cover this product before i made an impulse purchase 😂
  • @bennyinberlin
    Michelle and James in the same video - what a match made in heaven 😉 I've been using this lip balm for well over a month now and I like it. The taste doesn't bother me at all. But these before and after pics look more dramatic than my actual lip filler 😂
  • @teri2466
    My peptide serum has the same peptides that are in this lip product. I put it on my lips when I put it on my face. It has taken maybe 5 to 6 months but I definitely see & feel a difference in the plumpness of my lips. It's not like getting lip filler though. They're slightly more plump than they were before. Almost like I ate too much salt the night before and my lips feel a bit puffy n the morning lol.
  • @yeybrittany
    This lip balm actually worked for me, not a huge difference but you know like when you see someone at work one day and think they look really nice but can't tell anything different, its like that. And haven't had any dead skin on my lips since I started using it, it's now my favorite lip balm
  • I actually bought this because I like The Inkey List and I’m always in need of a good lip balm since my lips are dry. Especially nnow when it’s gerting cold outside. I was sceptical at the alleged effect but I thought it might be good anyway. Well, it didn’t work at all for my. My upper lip is super dry again. And another things is that it taste aweful. I don’t mind it being unscented but it tastes like plastic.
  • @Sittinghere88
    It's like James knows when I'm brewing my morning cup of coffee but I need a little bit of tea to go with it 💜😉
  • The job I assigned to this product was to add plumpness/fullness, if possible. I enjoy others, such as, Burt’s Bees, La Neige, Tatcha, et al for moisture products. The taste is off-putting and a bit gritty. I’m a natural girl so have never done fillers or the like. My lips have filled out and my Cupid’s bow is more defined. I now have a more refined lip and have been happy with the outcome. The smell is a deterrent in that I wouldn’t use it during the day or when in close quarters.
  • @Cloudpoolio
    I tried it without seeing all the hype/controversy and every time I use it I feel my lips are softer, lines filled in, and definitely appear more plump than usual so works well for me 😅
  • @theannamueller
    if i drink enough water my lips are plumper, if i am dehydrated they become a thin line. so alleged results might be due to other circumstances.
  • @foxwaffles
    Labmuffin beauty is amazing!!! Learned sooooo much about sunscreen and conditioner from her that has helped me immensely
  • @tammystiletto
    “It came pouring out” omg like in Cabinet of Curiosities The Outside episode with the Alo Glow 😮 lol. A good creepy episode watch for those who love beauty and skin care and don’t mind a little blood. Some blood. It was a great episode!
  • @selbybee
    so i bought this after seeing a tiktok about it (not the ad) - because it was cheap, it seemed worth a shot. i have had fillers but not recently, and after about a week of wearing it a colleague of mine asked if i’d got more filler! to be honest, i don’t see that much of a difference, but i like the texture and don’t mind the (lack of) taste. however, i do have a dry patch / flat blister on my lip right now (not a cold sore) and since someone else in the comments has mentioned something similar… i wonder if it’s connected!
  • @JimmySea_is_real
    Niod also has a lip serum that claims to Improve the look of lip color, volume, and texture. I tried that a few years ago and saw no difference in my lips and it was over 50 euros for a 15ml bottle 🤯 I'm so over any lip product, I feel like putting my hydrating face products on the contour of my lips is enough for me, also I don't have dry lips since I've stopped using lip balms, so that is my take. 😅
  • @Fran_4444
    As someone who purchased this and has been using it for around 3-4 weeks here’s my review: As a lip balm, it’s not super moisturising like it claims to be. BUT I have seen a difference on my lips! I think it’s because my lips were in need a bit of TLC in the moisture department initially, which is why I purchased in the first place. However, my burts bees overnight lip mask (which I use as a daily lip balm also) is MUCH more moisturising AND a fraction of the price. Also, due to the formula, this is really good to wear over lip makeup. But bottom line: overpriced- check out the burts bees overnight mask (same effect, better performance). The BB’s one is also a dupe for the laniege lip mask.
  • @UnpurrfectRobyn
    I have almost added this to my Sephora cart a few times, but something stopped me everytime... I think I was just subconsciously waiting for James's review/opinion! I'm glad I waited because if a lip product tastes offensive, I don't want it anywhere near my mouth. Congrats on working with Michelle; we all know how much you've wanted the honour. And we get it, she's fantastic. :)
