SkinCeuticals Antioxidant Lip Repair by SkinCeuticals, Lip Exfoliant Review

3

Totally ineffective

I was extremely disappointed by this product. It doesn't repair at all the lips, it doesn't even moisturize my lips. I feel like putting water on my lips. My lips are extremely dry when i use it.

Best lip exfoliant--ever!!

This product is amazing. Not only does it hydrate dry lips, it gets all the flaky dead skin off...after repeated use, it helps minimize those fine lines around your lips. You hardly need any, it lasts a LONG time. Great product 10/10

Great - i love it (for its antioxidants - not for moisturizing).

ill start buy saying that i am an addect to lip balms, i tried LOTS of different kinds of products ("lip serum's",lip balms,lip scrubs,lip plumpers,etc..). i simply love this serum, and its far better then other "lip srums" i tried in the past. what is it?...... "Skinceuticals-antioxidant lip repair", is an anti aging serum treatment for the lips and what it does is that it is a penatrating multi...read more vitamin and anti oxidant serum that protrcts and nourishes your lips. why is it better then the others i had tried?............. 1.its more moisturizing then others (this item alone will not moisturize enough) 2.it plumps up my lips nicly. 3.it has lots of antioxidants that realy protect lips. now the way i use this is (mostly) at night time before bed. i use it after i exfoliate my lips (directions at the end of this review) the one negitive thing about this item is regarding Its pump packaging. you see,this cream comes in a small pump bottle and after about two weeks of use,suddenly it stops pumping out any cream but DO NOT throw it away! its acctually full, but the problem is that this cream is thick so it sticks to the side of the bottlle and then the pump just cant pump any cream out (and because its not a "see through" pump then you just dont know that) so you assume its "empty". so to fix that,what you do is justtwist (hard) and unscrew the metal package from the pump and then you will be able to pull out the glass bottle inside and there you should see that there is so much cream left inside (i just take a q-tip to take some cream out). i just WISH the company would change this to a "vacuum pump"( i would be willing to pay a litlle more if they would change the packaging of this great lip serum. or you can buy a small half ounce empty cosmetic vacuum pump bottle from e-bay and take out all the cream from its original packaging and fill the vacuum bottle with it. i do that to alot of products i buy but hate their original packaging (mostly jars). and now to my "lip care" regimen............... NIGHT TIME...... first off ,every night i love to exfoliate my lips (this gives your lips the smooth texture cause it sweeps all the dead skin cells away and that means your lipstick will go on totally smooth and beautiful. i exfoliate my lips with a usual lip exfoliator, and from all the ones i have tried, the best one for me would be (undoubtedly) the "paula's choice lip exfoliant" the reasons for that would be because it comes in a nice soft cream base so its not as harsh on your lips as all those suger based lip exfoliators out in the market (treat beauty,lush,sara happ,bliss and thats to name a few) plus it comes in a small tube (as opposed to 95% of lip exfoliators that come in a jar). so its very handy and hygienic too. after the exfoliation i apply the "Skinceuticals antioxidant lip repair" serum and then wait 5 min. then i apply my lips with a somewhat thick layer of the "Treat coconut cream lip balm". this lip balm is sooo good, its really amazing. its the BEST one i found from tens and tens i have tried all my life. i love to use it because it's lightweight,not gloosy,not waxy,no "heavy sticky" feeling at all, i smooth it on my lips whenever i feel i need to. and most importantly....it gives a Real longlasting moisturized feel to the lips. this is not your typical lip balm that just "sits" on the lips and once it rubs off...your back to square one. i think the Glycerin and coconut oil is what really makes the difference on this balm.. so thats it girls,that is what i do: paula's choice lip exfoliant - everynight before bed time. "skin ceauticals-antioxidant lip repair" - as a serum after exfoliating at night. "Treat" lip balm as a nightime (and daytime) super great lip moisturizer. have fun guys, sarai from israel :-)
