I was so lucky to test out 3 different products from Mario Badescu through Lyko's Influtester program, this was 1 of them.
This lip mask is soft and lovely to apply, and the scent (acai and vanilla) is sweet and pleasant – but not overwhelming. It feels nourishing in the moment, and gives a nice shine, but the long-lasting effect is not as impressive.
What I liked:
• The cream melts easily into the lips and feels luxurious right away.
• Smells good and feels comforting to use, especially as an evening ritual.
• Lips feel instantly smooth and soft.
What brought it down:
• The effect is short-lived – lips often feel dry again the next morning.
• A bit unhygienic with jar format, especially if you apply with your fingers.
• Not the best for cracks or very sore lips – more maintenance than repair.
In summary:
It works well as a "cozy mask" for the lips and feels good after application, but if you struggle with flaky or cracked lips, you'll need something stronger. Good, but not essential.

I was lucky enough to test out 3 different products from Mario Badescu through Lyko's Influtester program, this was 1 of them.
This spray is marketed as soothing and repairing – and it delivers partially. Hypochlorous acid is known for its antimicrobial properties and is supposed to calm irritation and support the skin's natural healing process. I used it both morning and night, and as needed after workouts.
What I liked:
• Light and refreshing mist that doesn't feel sticky on the skin.
• Nice to use after extraction or with small breakouts – it can reduce redness and itch a bit.
• Convenient to use as a quick “refresh” throughout the day without ruining makeup.
What brought it down:
• For my skin (not sensitive, but with some blemishes), I didn't notice a dramatic difference.
• The spray head gives uneven distribution – sudden large sprays instead of a fine mist.
• Provides no moisture on its own, so you need to follow up with serum or cream.
In summary:
A perfectly fine product for those who want something mild and balancing in their routine, especially for small breakouts or after shaving/exercise. But don't expect miracles – it's more of a support player than a main act in the skincare routine.

I don't always find it easy to find good lip products that provide good moisture. My lips get dry quickly and I've tried many different products, and I think this is one of the better ones I've tried. It lasts a long time and doesn't need to be applied many times.
I often use this in the evening and apply a good layer. Then I feel like it lasts a long time and my lips stay moist for a long time.
I really recommend it!💜
