Beauty fans rave about ‘hella spicy’ new plumping lip gloss from Maybelline that mean you’ll never need filler again
WOMEN have been in search of the perfect pout for years – from overlining with skin tone-matched pencils to the Kylie Jenner shot glass challenge, we’ve done it all.
But one beauty product has reigned supreme in the lip pursuit of juicy lips: plumping glosses.
A safer alternative to filler, lip plumpers have rocketed in recent years for a needle-free lip boost that you can top up throughout the day.
And now, beauty buffs think they’ve found the lip plumper that means you’ll never consider getting lip filler again.
Enter, Maybelline’s Lifter Plump gloss infused with chilli pepper.
One swipe is said to make your lips increase by up to 30% in size, with Irish beauty whizz Maria Murphy taking to Instagram to share her verdict.
The 34-year-old warned that, owing to the chilli, the glosses are “hella spicy” – but the results are “insane”.
“The pigmentation on these is so, so gorgeous,” she said.
“They are hella spicy.
“I would usually always have to wear lip liner to make my lips look that little bit bigger, but this by itself is insane.
“Look at my lips afterwards.”
Maria tested the Pink Sting and Hot Honey hues, and urged people “not to be fooled by the name” of the latter.
“I was put off by this thinking it was going to be really gold,” she explained.
“But it’s actually quite clear ohn – I love it.
“Here’s to full, plump lips.”
Maybelline’s new Lifter Plump gloss comes in eight shades and costs £9.99 a tube.
The other six hues are Blush Blazer, Cocoa Zing, Hot Chilli, Mauve Bite, Peach Fever and Red Flag.
“Lifter Plump lip plumping gloss with chilli pepper and Maxi-Lip delivers an intense heated sensation and plumping effect instantly and overtime,” Maybelline bosses said.
“It delivers an intense, heated sensation, and it smooths lip lines and plumps lips.
“Its XL wand applicator lifts lips in heated, glossy colour, transforming lips in one easy swipe.”
Other shoppers have even compared the plumping gloss to Too Faced’s iconic £24 Lip Injection Extreme Lip Plumper.
“Too Faced Lip Injection lip gloss used to be my favourite but I couldn’t justify the price,” one shopper reviewed.
“So when I saw this came out, I thought I’d give it a try.
“I bought one and within 48 hours, I bought two more.
“It’s far superior to Too Faced.
“The heat might be a bit intense for some so be cautious, but for me it’s perfectly fine.”
