E.L.F. Glow Reviver Lip Oil Will Hydrate and Smooth Lips

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

E.L.F. Cosmetics Glow Reviver Lip Oil ($8) is a new ultra-glossy tinted lip oil that will be available in seven shades starting tomorrow, October 12th. Sign up for a Beauty Squad Membership (free to join) to gain access to the pre-sale of the new Glow Reviver Lip Oil starting at 12PM EST tomorrow at elfcosmetics.com and at ulta.com starting October 14th!

This new oil hydrates while enhancing the shade of your natural lip color. It has an oversized cushion applicator for application and a fresh minty flavor and fragrance with moisturizing elements like squalane, apricot, avocado, jojoba, and pomegranate oil. It’s a vegan and cruelty-free formula. Shades will be $8 each.

Shades:

  • Crystal Clear
  • Jam Session
  • Red Delicious
  • Coral Fixation
  • Rose Envy
  • Honey Talks
  • Pink Quartz

Lip oils are REALLY popular at the moment and super trendy. I would never had thought they’d evolve the way they did in the last two years. I sort of blame the pandemic and people just wanting a simply, glossy look and not the heavier, matte liquid lipsticks that were favored earlier in 2000. I’m here for that as someone who loves a good glossy lip look.

E.L.F. Glow Reviver Lip Oil sounds awesome!

CosRX The AHA BHA PHA LHA 35 Peel Gives The Ordinary Some Competition

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

CosRX The AHA BHA PHA LHA 35 Peel ($19) is a new AHA BHA LHA exfoliating peel that can be used weekly for ten minutes to smooth, decongest, and exfoliate skin to reveal a more radiant complexion with a formulation of four different acids.

The acids in this formula are:

  • AHA to exfoliate and smooth
  • BHA to clean and decongest pores and sebum
  • PHA aids in maintaining moisture
  • LHA reduces irritation

This is a powerful peel with up to 35% multi-acids so be sure to rinse off after 10 minutes. They promise it will “dramatically smooth skin” which has me intrigued. This formula acts to even out skin texture, resurface, refine, smooth, soften, and unclog pores while addressing dullness and uneven texture and roughness. People swear by the Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Exfoliating Peeling Solution which has the same pink-ish shade as the CosRX formula. Perhaps the CosRX one will perform just as well.

I compared the Ordinary formula to the CosRX one below. They aren’t dupes for each other that’s for sure. If anything the CosRX one appears to have a higher acid concentrate compared to the Ordinary’s formula.

CosRX The AHA BHA PHA LHA 35 Peel Ingredients:
Water, Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid, Potassium Hydroxide, Gluconolactone, Mandelic Acid, Dipropylene Glycol, Panthenol, Salicylic Acid(2%), Methylpropanediol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Octyldodeceth-16, Citric Acid, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Pentylene Glycol, Sodium Polyacryloyldimethyl Taurate, Cyanocobalamin, Polyacrylate Crosspolymer-6, Hydroxypropyl Starch Phosphate, Ethylhexylglycerin, Capryloyl Salicylic Acid, Polysorbate 60, Disodium Phosphate, Sodium Phosphate, Tocopherol, Allantoin, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid

The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Exfoliating Peeling Solution Ingredients:
Glycolic Acid, Aqua (Water), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Water, Sodium Hydroxide, Daucus Carota Sativa Extract, Propanediol, Cocamidopropyl Dimethylamine, Salicylic Acid, Potassium Citrate, Lactic Acid, Tartaric Acid, Citric Acid, Panthenol, Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer, Tasmannia Lanceolata Fruit/Leaf Extract, Glycerin, Pentylene Glycol, Xanthan Gum, Polysorbate 20, Trisodium Ethylenediamine Disuccinate, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, Ethylhexylglycerin, 1,2-Hexanediol, Caprylyl Glycol.
