Best praise vs top criticism for Maybelline Lifter Gloss with Hyaluronic Acid
“I’m wearing the plumping version of Maybelline lifter gloss in “red flag.” Be warned though, this stuff 🔥 burns 🔥 due to the capsaicin in it (imagine eating hot wings with chapped lips.) I’m a weirdo and have a high pain tolerance so I actually like it, because I can both see and feel it WORKING. Maybe it’s a placebo effect, but I don’t feel like other plumping glosses do anything for me (other than just functioning as a gloss) whereas this one really does.”
“Hands up, I actually love the scent of these lol. It’s me, I’m the problem 😂 they smell like Bailey’s or something, I don’t even normally like products to smell like anything but I can’t get enough of this one. I completely understand hating it though, even though I like it, they smell SO strongly. If it makes you feel better though you’re probably better off just getting the Fenty, the Lifter goose’s are horrible value if you look at their cost per ounce.”
