I don't think I would use it on my lips. The skin on our lips is much thinner than our face. When a peel is done, it is recommended to NOT use it on your lips. I used this and had significant peeling after 2 layers left on for 3 minutes each. This product does what it says. I hope this helps.

Hello Omar,No chemical peels should every be used on the lips or any other mucous membranes of the body. This is an acid, and could cause injury to those types of areas. It is for use on regular facial and body skin only, not lips, no area with folds or too near the eyes. Thank you!

I looked on the carton and cannot find an expiration date. I don't know if what is in the stuff. My lips swelled up from it so I am not using again.

This is a good one. Also like MT brand. I don't buy the cheap ones, like below $20 simply b/c I don't want to take a chance on problems. How I clean mine: soak your roller w a denture tablet after use, in a plastic cup so you don't damage the needles;let air dry a couple days; cover it when completely dry, then 30 min in 70% alcohol before you use it the next time. Follow their directions for cleaning, but this is how I do it based on research on derma rollers. I derma roll regularly and it makes a difference, skin texture is finer, pores get smaller, acne pits smoothing out, crepe texture less, my skin is getting thicker. It is very slow, but hey in a year, if I didn't do something my skin would look a year older. This way, it is getting better. Good luck to you! BTW 1mm is a good safe length, follow directions. It shouldn't hurt, shouldn't bleed. It feels prickly. If it hurts or bleeds, you are pressing too hard. If your skin doesn't get red, you aren't pressing hard enough. Be careful around your eyes. I test to see if I am indeed breaking the skin by dabbing a little alcohol on a spot. If it stings you are doing it right. Do at night so redness will be gone by the time you get up. Also the little micro holes you are making are perfect for putting on collagen inducing products like vitamin C and something with retinol. I only use 2 products, and they make a huge difference. Your skin will soak up the C fast, straight to the dermis, which is where collagen is produced. Collagen means tightening. After 15 months of rolling you'll have a whole new network of collagen under your face!!! and we know what that's gonna do lol!! tighten up all those sags & lines!!! :)))) Don't roll over fever blisters (you'll spread them) and don't roll over moles, etc.

Okay, so I decided to try it on my face before answering. I don't have much facial hair but tried it on my upper lip. Woo! Who knew there was so much hair there? I am fair haired and so I guess it never showed! The hair is fine and soft but the epilady was still able to grab on and rip a lot of hair., but not all of it. I don't recommend using it prior to going out in public. I look like I was stung by a bunch of sweat bees (do they sting?) or rolled my upper lip in a bed of chiggers.

I have been using it for a long time. I use it full blast, but around my upper lip and eyes I cannot tolerate above 1/2 power. If you use it 3 mins a day, you will see virtually no results. I use it 15 mins/day.

I'm not sure if you should use it on your lips.. I've only used on it on my face.

I've been using for 30+ days and don't have results yet. Iwill just finish my tube and see what happens! I'd be interested in how age affects efficacy - I'm 69 and maybe just too old to revive my lashes, but the friend who highly recommended this (great results after two weeks) is 65. ???

I'm in the same boat. I've been using for 3 weeks now and NOTHING! Even with Roc that I bought from Walmart I started to feel/see changes in my skin by this time. Giving it till the end of the bottle until I post my review. :-/

With the Morpho stain I just apply one dot to the center of my bottom lip and smooth it around. It's a softer look that just makes your lips look like that's their natural color. Your lips don't feel so dry once they get used to not having a constant supply of artificial moisture. (I was a balm addict!) If they do feel dry occasionally just put a little plain old Chapstick (Burt's Bees original is my favorite) on. It will also brighten the stain a little. However, the oils in te balm will make the stain wear off a little faster. Try just the stain for a while and see how you like it.

I was a first time user and I went on YouTube to find out how I should use it. Put petroleum jelly on your lips and under your eyes and don't let it sit for longer than 5 minutes. Already have your baking soda mix ready before you start the process. My skin came out lovely it wasn't so harsh that my skin peeled but it did the job.

I wish I could answer that, but I don't check it. I just went by using 20% and that is what I use. My face doesn't get red or irritated, so I thought I was good. Good luck

Hi, again! I did an application this weekend and left it on longer since my skin has so well tolerated the prior applications. The results were more noticeable and my darkest dark spot is much lighter. I think it's safe to say that in another couple of applications it won't be visible anymore. I did leave it on a bit too long this time so to prevent blistering I really do still recommend gradually increasing the time to minimize risk of any injury to your skin, per the instructions. Good luck! I think we have a solution. I hope it works well for you, but we're all different so it's hard to say. Take care. Hi, again!

Hi, the lip stain comes with a spongy wand (like for most lip glosses), since the consistency is very liquid-y, so the stick form is not very feasible. :) I actually really like the wand, sometimes I just apply it just at the inner half of my lips to create a "just-bitten" Korean "Ulzzang" type of look, then use lipbalm all over my lips to moisturize & a natural sheen. I love this lip stain... very very long lasting!

It burned the *expletive deleted* out of my face after about a minute. I left it in probably for about 3 minutes before I used baking soda to neutralize it. I would say do a test on your neck or something first because it was not my first peel I knew what to expect. What I do now is I only put it on areas that are uneven in tone or that have pimples and leave it for the full time (about 8-10 min) or as long as I can stand it LOL and then neutralize it. Follow up with a moisturizer for your skin type (I use pure argan oil from Morocco) and you're good to go! It is a pretty decent peel even if it burns a bit and it doesn't quite PEEL peel but you'll notice your skins clarity improves. Hope this helped!

Maia, did you try this formula for your husbands lips and did it work if you did? If he has Angular Chealitis where the lips crack in the corner, the actual skin of the lips are constantly chapped and peeling, and the skin sloughs off at the corners of the mouth down the sides, then you may want to try Dried Mango. I get that stuff from here on Amazon-from the Philippines. It doesn't make it go away for good but it sure keeps mine under control, at least the sores and the lip peeling. They say this is caused by a fungal infection. I would really like to know if you tried the honey salve tho? Maia, did you try this formula for your husbands lips and did it work if you did?
