Results you may expect from using Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Lip Plumper:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Lip Plumper:

  • Moderate moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 5.8 out of 10.

How moisturizing is it?

Quite moisturizing: Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Lip Plumper has a moisturizing rating of 5.8 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more occlusive. It has a low Humectancy of 1.6 out of 10 and a maximum Occlusivity of 10 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil (est. ≈22.0%), Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil (est. ≈6.0%) and Tribehenin (est. ≈2.0%).

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the moisturizing rating calculation.

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Lip Plumper has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, an ingredient marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 provide insufficient evidence of its efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, this ingredient does not generate the anti-wrinkle rating.

Moisturizers, when used regularly, are proven to prevent wrinkle formation and even reduce existing wrinkles. Therefore, this product, like any other moisturizer, could deliver some anti-wrinkle effects through its moisturizing action.

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the anti-wrinkle rating calculation.

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Lip Plumper is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Tocopheryl Acetate (est. ≈11.0%) and Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil (est. ≈6.0%).

A key benefit of antioxidants is their ability to reduce oxidative stress caused by free radicals and therefore prevent accelerated skin aging. Studies also show that antioxidants can protect against environmental damage such as UV radiation and pollution, and help reduce inflammation and skin redness.
