Holy grail lip product! The only lip mask that is actually still on my lips when I wake up. My lips are plump and soft and rarely dry since I started using this. And the jar is huge… I use it every night and one jar lasts me about a year. Because of that, and how well it works, it’s totally worth the price. I also sometimes wear it during the day!
