Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Plumping Gloss – Baby Doll

I naturally have slightly thin and small lips, so I am constantly looking for lip plumping products to enhance and plump them up. Therefore, I chose to buy Soap and Glory Super Colour Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Plumping Gloss in Baby Doll. The title of it is quite funny and the packaging is super cute, so I decided to give this a spin.



What it is:

Soap and Glory’s bestselling extreme plumping lip gloss with Superfill volume-maxing microspheres and Lipswell natural plant oil infusion.

What it is formulated to do:

A single slick of Sexy Mother Pucker can fool your lips into looking and feeling fuller. It features Superfill microspheres that explode in volume up to 10X when they absorb moisture, and circulation-enhancing LIPSWELL™ natural plant oil infusion to increase blood flow and make lips look almost instantly lusher.  Sexy Mother Pucker activates on contact. It’s likely that you will notice a bit of a buzz (and likely, create one). Please note: This is normal.

It has black labeling on it with a black screw on top.  It has a sponge tip applicator with gives off the perfect amount of product, not too much nor too little. It comes in a colorful cardboard box with the cutest packaging.



My Experience with Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Plumping Gloss – Baby Doll:

I must start off this review with a WARNING! When I first put on this lip gloss (without reading the instructions), I was totally freaked out! It gives your lips a strange buzz and tingling which lasts for a while.  After being totally freaked out and wiping it off, I read the instructions and the description and I realized it was supposed to do that. Usually other plumping glosses will give a tingly burning sensation, but this one was to the extreme, and it lasted way longer too. After my freak out, I decided to apply it again and I actually liked the way it felt on my lips.  The tingly and fuzzy feeling makes it feel like it is actually working. The title of the gloss is “Baby Doll,” it is a beautiful sheer pink color that will really compliment all skin tones because it is very sheer.

It is a raspberry chocolate flavor but the taste is not that strong, which I am VERY thankful for because it keeps me from licking it all off from my lips (hehe) :p. The consistency of the gloss is way too thick. That goes to say that it definitely lasts really long because it is so thick, but it gets way too sticky. This stays on my lips for over 2 hours if I am not eating or drinking. I do not prefer sticky and thick glosses because my hair gets caught in it and creates a whole new mess.  Also, if it smears away from lips, on to the face, it gets difficult to clean up. This creates a slight dilemma for me because I like that it lasts really long but because of that it is thick and sticky.  I have to really question myself before I put it on.

This gloss gives a huge buzz feel, but not too much plumping affect. I already have small thin lips so if there is any kind of plumping effect, I can see it clearly, but this gave me a little swell effect which disappointed me at first when I applied it because it claims to start working right away. After 30 minutes, I checked my lips and I felt like they looked plumper than before but still nothing major. So in short, this product does not work right away, instead it takes a while to go into effect.  The description hype heightened my expectation, but I don’t think it does what it claims to the fullest exempt.  Aside from plumping, it also gives off a very pretty and healthy shine which makes lips look luscious. One thing that bothered me the MOST about this product is that it totally dries my lips out. I can literally feel my lips getting chapped and cracked up when it wears off. Though this product does not claim to moisturize lips, but that does not mean that it should completely dry out lips to the extent that I would need to apply heavy lip balm. Overall, this is a decent product which gives minimal results but is a good gloss to make lips look shiny and luscious.

Pros of Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Plumping Gloss – Baby Doll:

Pretty color, will look good on all skin tones.

Lasts for a very long time.

Buzzing and tingling sensation feels good on the lips.

Packaging is convenient, applicator gets out perfect amount of product.

Cons of Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Plumping Gloss – Baby Doll:

Thick and heavy formula.

Sticky formula, gets messy.

Gives minimal plumping effect (does not live up to expectations as it claims).

Dries out lips, absolutely no moisturizing after product comes out.

Makes my lips super chapped.

IMBB Rating:

3/5, I cut one point off because it dries out my lips and another one point because it heightens expectations when in reality, it gives minimal results.

Would I Repurchase Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Plumping Gloss – Baby Doll?

No, I definitely will not be repurchasing. I am not a fan of dried out, chapped lips.

Would I Recommend Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Plumping Gloss – Baby Doll?

Nope, I suggest you ladies go out and look at other lip plumping brands. Skip this!
