What is plumping?
Plumping is the effect of filling out and enlarging – usually the lips, but also the skin of the face. It is achieved through intensive hydration, collagen stimulation or swelling ingredients.
How does plumping work in cosmetics?
Hyaluronic acid binds water and plumps the skin from within. Peptides stimulate collagen production. Ingredients such as menthol or cinnamon temporarily irritate the lips and boost blood flow.
What is a lip plumper?
Lip glosses and lip balms with a plumping effect (lip plumpers) contain hyaluronic acid, peptides and stimulating ingredients (cinnamon, ginger, chili). The effect lasts only a few hours.
Plumping for the face
Serums with hyaluronic acid, collagen and peptides deliver the plumping effect. With regular use, the skin becomes visibly smoother and plumper.
