I have the TOVA Lip Redeemer in Clear, a lip product that is geared to be used alone as a moisturizing balm or in adjunct to your lipstick to lock in the color. My feeling about it is so-so; read on and if you have used it tell me if you agree or disagree.
Unlike most lip balms that I have used, this one seems to not glide as effortlessly across my lips say like MAC’s Tendertone or Einstein’s Lip Therapy. I can’t rub my lips together without it feeling like work. The ingredients seem to have promise for moisturization with beeswax and castor seed oil; I also noticed it had Palmitoyl Oligopeptide, something that is supposed to restore plumpness to your lips over time. However, I felt TOVA’s Lip Redeemer to have this “dry” feeling on my lips.
Paired with a lipstick, it did seem to make the color last a bit longer and there was no feathering or bleeding.
For the price ($36 for 2 on QVC.com) I can’t say I would recommend it. So have your say, have you used it? I’d love to know what you thought.
