My Mom Asked If Id Gotten Lip Filler After I Used This Plumping Liner

When Too Faced launched a plumping lip liner, I was cautiously optimistic given that the brand is lauded for its iconic, InStyle-approved Better Than Sex Mascara and Lip Injection glosses. My fandom for  the aptly named glosses is serious — I own virtually every shade — and prior to trying the liners, I’d hoped that they’d live up to their lip-enhancing counterparts.

They absolutely did. In fact, they’ve exceeded my expectations, and I rarely leave the house without carrying one in my bag these days. My sister tried my liner during a recent visit and snatched it up after a single use, noting how incredibly full her naturally thin lips looked. Perhaps most telling of the lip liner’s effectiveness: My mom asked me whether I’d had a top-up on lip injections on a recent FaceTime. (I had not.)

 For a limited time, my beloved lip liner — in addition to almost everything else on the brand’s site — is 30 percent off. Simply use code STOCKUP at checkout to apply the discount.

The Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Lip Shaper Liner is a plumping liner that enhances via a tingly, maximizing formula. The plumping effect lasts up to eight hours, according to the brand — and, anecdotally, I can attest to that.

Available in six neutral, flattering hues, ranging from a light pink to a deep chocolate brown, it’s difficult to choose a favorite (FWIW: two shades are already sold out). My current go-to, Espresso Shot, is the deepest of the bunch and perfect for creating moody, autumnal lip looks. In addition to the pout-enhancing effect, I love the liner’s ultra-fine tip, which facilitates easy sculpting. Furthermore, the penlike click-top applicator nixes the need to sharpen it. 

Once applied, the formula gets to work quickly. Within a minute or two, it creates a slight tingle — which, to me, signals efficacy (if you’ve ever tried a plumping gloss, you’ll understand). The tingling subsides after about five minutes, at which point you’ll notice a marked difference in lip plumpness. 

In addition to using the liner to define my lips, I sweep it across the entirety of my pout, where it creates a lovely cushiony base for any ensuing lipstick or gloss. Incidentally, I often layer the brand’s Lip Injection Gloss — also 30 percent off — over my liner to create a doubly effective plumping effect. 

If sultry, pillowy lips are of interest, I implore you to snap up the Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Lip Shaper Liner while it’s still on sale and in stock. I can almost guarantee it’ll become a staple in your makeup routine, as it has for me.
