Reviews Summary
Customers say this lip balm feels soft, moisturizing, and leaves lips hydrated without stickiness. Many appreciate its smooth texture and subtle plumping effect with regular use, noting it works well as a daily balm or overnight treatment. Common feedback mentions an unpleasant taste and smell, with some finding the texture grainy or the formula too runny. While several users report noticeable results after weeks of consistent application, others experienced dryness, irritation, or no visible plumping. The tinted versions receive particular praise for color and staying power.

    Extremely drying!!

    I have applied this regularly when in the office and find that it only makes my lips dryer and more chapped, with an unpleasant tingling/stinging sensation. It also causes pilling when you run a finger over your lips. I have used it for months so this isn't an impulsive review - unfortunately it's time to give up on this and put it in the bin.

    Hi Alison,

    Thank you for taking the time to share this detailed feedback. We're sorry to hear the Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm hasn't worked out for you, especially after giving it a genuine three-month try.

    The tingling/stinging sensation and increased dryness you're describing isn't the experience we want for anyone, and it sounds like this formula just wasn't the right match for your skin. We appreciate you being so thorough in your review — feedback like this is genuinely valuable to us.

    Please reach out to our customer care team at help@theinkeylist.com, and they'll be happy to look into this further with you.

    Thanks again for the honest and detailed review.

    Warmly,
    The INKEY List Team

    Not for me

    Not a fan of this, I'm afraid. Being a lip balm, you'll inevitably end up 'tasting' it and for me, it's not pleasant. Tried it a few times but ended up ditching it. A real shame as I love everything else Inkey.

    Hi Maddy,

    Thank you for your honest review — and for being such a fan of INKEY! It genuinely means a lot to us, even when a particular product isn't quite the one for you.

    We're sorry the taste of the Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm wasn't to your liking. You're right that with a lip product it's almost impossible to avoid noticing it, and taste is such a personal thing — we completely understand it can make or break the experience. It's really valuable feedback, and we'll be sure to pass it along to our team as we continue to develop and improve our formulas.

    Thank you again for the kind words about the rest of the range — we're so glad the rest of your INKEY routine is working beautifully for you, and we hope to keep it that way!

    If there's ever anything we can help with, our team is always here at help@theinkeylist.com.

    It doesn't plump

    Bought two lip balms before my wedding and used them religiously for months to try and get the most benefit before the big day. It's a decent lip balm, feels comfortable but a little drying. I didn't see any short term or long term lip plumping effects sadly, which is the entire selling feature of this balm. Would buy again IF it plumped my lips. I usually like Inkey products, this one was disappointing.

    Hi Talia,

    Thank you for such an honest and detailed review, and congratulations on your wedding! We're so sorry the plumping results didn't come through the way you'd hoped, especially after using it so faithfully in the lead-up to your big day.

    A little context that might help: our Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm is formulated with peptides rather than tingling agents, so it works to smooth, hydrate, and enhance the natural look of lips gradually and gently — the effect is more subtle and cumulative than the instant "tingle" plumpers, and results can vary from person to person. We completely understand that if plumping is the main thing you're after, a subtler result can feel disappointing, and that's really valuable feedback we'll pass along to our team.

    We're glad you found the texture lovely and comfortable at least. If you'd like to chat with us further about your experience, our team is always here at help@theinkeylist.com and would be happy to help.

    Thank you again for sharing your experience, and for being an INKEY fan — it really means a lot to us.
