MAED

A silky lip serum and brightening treatment that helps to even tone, volumize lips and effectively infuse lips with hydration. Low molecular weight humectants and gentle actives work in synergy to rejuvenate lips with extended plumpness while fortifying the lip barrier.

First, can we start off by saying I love a good line, smoothing treatment for the lips! But this really peaked my interest, since there is not much on the market like it. The peptides and ceramides in this formula really help to smooth fine lines and the Squalane really hydrates. It also has vitamin C, which is great for brightening. For me personally, I did not get to the chance to notice the brightening on the lips. One thing I did notice about the formula after it absorbed was that it leaves this matte sticky finish behind. The tingling/burning sensation I felt after application, lasted about 25 minutes. Yes i said burning. I would say it gives the same sensation as the Too Faced Lip Injection Plumper, for those that are familiar. For me personally, I don’t feel like the sensation is bearable for the outcome, as I didn’t see a big amount of plumping, but it may work better for someone else. If you are looking for an alternative to other lip plumping products, this is a good one from a clean/vegan brand. I received this as a part of an educational promotion

When I received this product, I wasn't entirely aware it would be lip plumping, but upon further research, I noticed it's mentioned in the description. My initial experience was not a super great experience. Once I applied the product to my lips, it felt more like a burning feeling than a tingly sensation. Then I got it on my tongue accidentally, and it was not good. I was hesitant to try it again, but seeing the positive reviews, I felt like I had to give it another go, and it went better the next few times. It's still a little bit tingly but not burning, and I do my best to avoid getting it on my tongue by accident. The product dries a bit sticky, so I have a hard time feeling like my lips were hydrated. It's an interesting product that really depends on the person who uses it to see if it'll work. It definitely has potential! I'll have to try different layering techniques to see what works for me!

I’ve been using the MAED Reset Hydrating Line-Smoothing Lip Serum for a week. It truly delivers deep hydration — my lips feel softer, smoother, and more nourished. The lightweight, non-sticky texture makes it comfortable to wear, and it applies evenly without running. It works great as a base under lipstick, helping it glide on more smoothly and making my lips appear fuller. I also love the sleek, minimal packaging and the fact that it has no strong scent. However, I did notice a mild tingling sensation after application. It’s not uncomfortable, but worth mentioning for those with sensitive lips. Overall, it feels more like true lip skincare than a regular balm and has noticeably improved the look, texture, and comfort of my lips in just a few days.
