Moisturizing & effectiveness4.8
“I used to be a Vaseline lip therapy girl all my life after every other chapstick brand failed me—till I tried Aquaphor and I’ll never look back. Now, Vaseline feels so thin and dries out my lips instantly. This coats your lips so good and leaves them moisturized for a long time. I have multiple everywhere I go. Best ever.” — S · Target

Lip appearance & plumping4.5
“The Rhode lip treatments are seriously unbeatable! They’re super hydrating and leave my lips feeling soft and plump for hours. I love using them at night because I actually wake up with my lips still moisturized — such a game-changer. During the day, I can’t go anywhere without them; I always have one (or two!) in my bag. The flavors smell so good, and I get so many compliments whenever I use them” — zeynepjoz · sephora.com
