The Mask: Kaplan MD Perfect Pout Lip Mask + Balm Duo
What it does: This is a hydrating and lip plumping treatment to help enhance fullness and prevent dry, chapped skin.
How to apply: Start by spreading a layer of Kaplan LIP 20 Mask directly onto lips and extend a little past your natural lip line to treat fine lines around the mouth. Let sit for three to five minutes and then wipe off any excess product with a tissue. After masking, coat your lips with Lip 20 Balm Ultra Hydrating Treatment.
What it felt like: It has a peppermint scent but at no point did it sting my lips. It was certainly tolerable
What I did while I masked: Hung out in my hotel room in St. Louis (I’m here for a conference) while catching up on my favorite blogs.
The results: Let me just preface by saying, I have weird shaped lips. I have a thin top lip and a full bottom lip. So when I try products that promise lip plumping at its best—it’s usually because I’m desperate to try to make my lips look more even. This lip mask definitely made my lips feel softer and easily wiped away dead skin but I couldn’t see any trace of plumping going on. Maybe I didn’t wait long enough for the formula to sink in? Or I didm’t lay it on thick like the photos I’m looking at on Google right now. That might be it. I’m not sure but I’m willing to give it another try. I think the star product in this two-step process is the Ultra Hydrating Treatment. I applied it before I went to bed and woke up with stellar soft lips and absolutely no cracks (because we all know there’s nothing more painful than chapped lips).

Chapped lips are the worst, it is so hard to find good lip treatments, I want to try one of the gold masks that you see on Instagram to see if they do anything, so far all the ones I have tried have been really horrible xxx

Ok I need to hear more about these gold masks you speak of!!
My lips need ALL the TLC they can get so this sounds great.
I’ve never tried a lip mask, but lips are in dire need of help right now. Plus this isn’t too costly that it would break the bank
