How is the Pro-Collagen Peptide Gloss Balm different from the Hyaluronic Acid + Peptide Lip Booster?
Both products are non-sticky, tingle-free lip treatments that visibly improve signs of aging and prevent moisture loss. They also each have unique benefits including:
Pro-Collagen Peptide Gloss Balm:
- Volume Boost: Rapidly boosts lip volume for visibly fuller, plumper lips.
- Ingredients: Combines three potent peptides, including tridecapeptide-1, which visibly plumps lips in 15 minutes and increases fullness over time. Includes shea butter, plum seed oil and sesame seed extract for deep hydration and nourishment.
- Texture & Scent: Infused with synthetic vanillin, it has a rich (but not heavy) texture and delivers a subtle pink hue suitable for all skin tones.
- Applicator: Comes with a built-in silicone tip for a smooth application.
Hyaluronic Acid + Peptide Lip Booster:
- Hydration & Anti-Aging: Formulated with hyaluronic acid, peptides, and squalane to attract and expand moisture, minimize fine lines, and improve natural fullness for smoother, younger-looking lips.
- Ingredients: Includes hyaluronic acid + konjac sponge spheres (glucomannan) to trap water in the lips’ lower layers, firming peptides to soften fine lines and squalane for extra hydration and suppleness.
- Texture & Scent: Has a colorless, dewy gloss finish with no noticeable scent.
- Applicator: Features a cooling metal tip applicator.
Those looking to rapidly boost lip volume for visibly fuller, plumper, juicier lips will find the Pro-Collagen Peptide Gloss Balm is likely the better choice.
