At-a-Glance (who it's for, what to expect) (30s overview)
Dealing with constantly dry, flaky, or thinning lips can be frustrating. This mask offers a deeply nourishing and plumping solution that works overnight, so you can wake up to visibly softer and fuller lips.
- Best for: Anyone with dry, chapped, or aging lips seeking intense moisture and a visible plumping effect.
- What to expect: A rich, thick balm that provides immediate comfort and a glossy finish. With consistent nightly use, lips feel softer, smoother, and appear fuller.
- Scent & Texture: A thick, velvety balm with a subtle, pleasant fruity-floral (pomegranate) scent.
Quick Start (how to use it tonight) (60-second routine)
- Cleanse: Ensure your lips are clean and free of any makeup.
- Apply: Using the included spatula or a clean finger, apply a generous layer of the lip mask evenly over your lips.
- Sleep: Leave it on overnight. Gently wipe away any excess in the morning.
Mindful Tip: Already own a lip balm or mask? Finish it first before opening a new one to reduce waste and give your current product a fair chance.
AM Routine Guide (how to use in the morning) (daytime use)
While designed for overnight use, this mask is versatile enough for your morning routine, especially on days when your lips need extra care or protection from air-conditioning.
- As a Rich Balm: Apply a thin layer to moisturize and protect lips throughout the day. It provides a beautiful glossy finish.
- As a Gloss Topper: Apply a small amount over your favorite lip tint or lipstick to add a high-shine, plumping finish and prevent your lips from drying out.
PM Routine Guide (how to use in the evening) (recommended for starting)
For the best restorative results, incorporate the lip mask as the final step of your evening skincare routine.
- Cleanse: After cleansing your face, ensure all lip makeup is removed.
- Apply [THIS PRODUCT]: Scoop a pea-sized amount and apply a thick, even layer over your lips.
- Leave Overnight: Let the mask work its magic while you sleep. There's no need to apply any other lip product on top.
How to Use (application, amount, frequency) (beginner-friendly)
- Amount: A pea-sized amount is sufficient for a generous overnight layer. For daytime use, a half-pea size is plenty.
- Method: Use the clean spatula to scoop the product, then apply directly to the lips with the spatula or your fingertip. Gently spread to cover the entire lip area.
- Frequency: Safe for use every night. For daytime use, reapply as you would a standard lip balm.
Weekly Planner (example & routine) (how to schedule use)
This lip mask is a gentle daily treatment, not an active that needs cycling. Integrate it into your routine as follows:
- Daily Use (Recommended): Apply every night as the last step of your skincare routine for consistent hydration and plumping.
- Weekly Boost (Optional): 1-2 times a week, use a gentle lip scrub before applying the mask to enhance absorption and smooth away any flakiness.
- As-Needed Rescue: Apply a thick layer anytime your lips feel particularly dry, chapped, or irritated for immediate relief.
What to Expect (results timeline) (immediate → 8+ weeks)
- Immediately: Lips feel deeply moisturized, soothed, and have a glossy, healthy sheen. Any immediate feeling of tightness or dryness is relieved.
- After 1 Week: You'll likely wake up with consistently softer, flake-free lips. Fine lines may appear less noticeable due to the intense hydration.
- After 4-8+ Weeks: With consistent use, you may notice a subtle improvement in lip volume and plumpness. The overall health and resilience of your lip skin should be visibly improved.
Individual results may vary. Consistent use is key to seeing long-term benefits.
Myth Replacement (why this, not that) (safer, effective alternatives)
Myth: "I can just use my regular face or body moisturizer on my lips."
Reality: Lip skin is much thinner and more delicate than the skin on your face or body, and it lacks oil glands. This mask is specifically formulated with occlusive and nourishing ingredients like plant oils and vegan collagen that are designed to adhere to lips and provide the intense, long-lasting moisture they need—something a standard lotion isn't built to do.
Compatibility Guide (what to pair it with) (layering)
- Works Well With: This mask is the final step and is compatible with virtually all skincare. It works beautifully after a gentle lip scrub or on top of a lip tint.
- Use Carefully With: No major conflicts. If using a prescription topical around the mouth area, apply that first and let it absorb completely before applying the lip mask to avoid spreading the medication onto your lips.
- Avoid On: Do not apply on broken skin or open sores on the lips.
Skin Type Compatibility (best fits and cautions) (for your lips)
- Excellent For: Dry, dehydrated, chapped, and mature lips that show fine lines or volume loss.
- Good For: All lip types needing a boost of hydration and a healthy glow.
- Caution: The formula is rich. While non-comedogenic for lips, if you are extremely prone to perioral acne (breakouts around the mouth), be sure to apply it neatly within the lip line.
Targeted Concerns (what it helps to solve) (lip issues)
- Chronic Dryness & Chapping: Forms a protective barrier to lock in moisture and heal dry, flaky skin.
- Fine Lines on Lips: Intensely hydrates and plumps the lip surface, making vertical lip lines appear smoother.
- Loss of Volume: Contains ingredients that help to visibly plump and define the lips over time.
- Dullness: Restores a natural, healthy, rosy look to dull, lackluster lips.

Key Ingredients Explained:
- Collagen Extract (1000ppm): A vegan, plant-derived collagen that provides intense moisture and helps improve the elasticity and firmness of the lips.
- Punica Granatum (Pomegranate) Flower Extract: A powerful antioxidant that helps stimulate collagen synthesis, contributing to firmer, smoother lips.
- Volufiline™ (Anemarrhena Asphodeloides Root Extract): A patented cosmetic ingredient known for its 'lipo-filling' effect. It promotes lipid accumulation in cells, which can lead to a visible increase in lip volume and plumpness over time.
- Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil & Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil: Rich, nourishing emollients that soften, condition, and form a protective barrier to prevent moisture loss.
- Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E): An antioxidant that protects the delicate lip skin from environmental stressors.
Full INCI List: Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Ethylene/Propylene/Styrene Copolymer, Butylene/Ethylene/Styrene Copolymer, Pentaerythrityl Tetra-di-t-butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate, Phytosteryl/Isostearyl/Cetyl/Stearyl/Behenyl Dimer Dilinoleate, Diisostearyl Malate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Punica Granatum Flower Extract, Polyglyceryl-2 Triisostearate, Anemarrhena Asphodeloides Root Extract, Collagen Extract, Aqua, Butylene Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Pulsatilla Koreana Extract, Usnea Barbata (Lichen) Extract, Zanthoxylum Piperitum Fruit Extract, Fragrance, CI 45410.
Allergens & Fragrance Disclosure (scent profile and potential irritants) (safety check)
- Fragrance: This product contains added fragrance ('Parfum'/'Fragrance'). Users describe it as a light and pleasant fruity-floral scent, often associated with pomegranate. Scent intensity is generally considered mild (1-2/5).
- EU Allergens: None of the 26 declarable EU allergens are listed in the official INCI. However, as it contains a proprietary fragrance blend, individuals with extreme fragrance sensitivity should patch test.
- General Sensitizers: The formula is generally well-tolerated. It is free from common irritants like drying alcohols and harsh sulfates.
Full Safety & Patch Test Protocol (important precautions) (how to test)
- Who should use with caution? While generally safe for all, those with a known allergy to any of the listed ingredients or a high sensitivity to fragrances should proceed with caution.
- Patch Test Protocol: Before first use, apply a small amount of the mask to a discrete area, like the corner of your lip or on your inner arm. Wait 24 hours to check for any signs of redness, itching, or irritation. If a reaction occurs, discontinue use.
- General Safety: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Keep out of reach of children. Discontinue use and consult a specialist if you experience any adverse reactions like a persistent rash, swelling, or irritation.
Sensory & Chemical Profile (texture, feel, and formulation) (product experience)
- Texture: A thick, rich, and viscous balm. It feels smooth and substantial, not watery or light.
- Feel on Skin: It melts upon contact with the lips, spreading easily into a smooth, glossy layer. It can feel slightly tacky initially but creates a comfortable, protective coating that lasts for hours.
- Scent: Light, sweet, and fruity-floral.
- pH: Not applicable, as this is an anhydrous (water-free) formula.
- Comedogenicity: Contains oils, but this is not a concern for lip skin, which lacks the type of pores that get clogged on the face. Be mindful of applying it too far outside the lip line if you are prone to perioral breakouts.
Troubleshooting Guide (common issues and solutions) (quick fixes)
-
"It feels too sticky or heavy."
- You might be using too much. Try applying a thinner layer. For daytime, a very small dab is enough to provide a glossy finish without feeling overly thick.
-
"I'm not seeing a dramatic plumping effect."
- The plumping effect is subtle and cumulative, not like lip fillers. It works by improving hydration and promoting lipid storage over time. Look for gradual improvements in smoothness and volume over several weeks of consistent nightly use.
-
"The pot packaging feels unhygienic."
- Always use the included clean spatula or wash your hands thoroughly before dipping your finger into the pot. This prevents the introduction of bacteria and keeps the product fresh.
Climate Fit for Mauritius (local usage advice) (our climate)
- Overnight Use: Perfect for nighttime use, especially if you sleep in an air-conditioned room which can be very drying for the lips. It will create a protective barrier to prevent moisture loss overnight.
- Daytime Use (Humid Summer): During hot and humid Mauritian summers, a thick layer might feel heavy. Use a very thin layer for a comfortable glossy look that still provides protection.
- Daytime Use (Drier Winter): During the cooler, drier months, this mask is an excellent daytime balm to protect against chapping from wind and less humid air.

Note: The following are aggregated sentiments from independent online communities and do not reflect official brand claims.
- Praise for Texture & Scent: A Reddit user on r/AsianBeauty (2024-05) mentioned, "I'm obsessed with the texture! It's so thick and luxurious, not like a thin balm. The pomegranate scent is also really lovely and not too strong." Many appreciate the rich, comforting feel upon application.
- Effective Hydration: A review on YesStyle (2024-08) stated, "This saved my chronically chapped lips. I wake up and my lips are so soft and smooth, with no flakes at all. It works just as well as the famous Laneige mask, but it's vegan."
- Subtle Plumping: An Amazon customer review (2024-06) noted the plumping effect: "Don't expect filler-like results, but after a few weeks of nightly use, my lips definitely look a bit fuller and the lines are less obvious. It's a nice, natural plump."
- Fair Caveat (Stickiness): A common point of feedback is the texture. Another Reddit user (2024-07) commented, "It does its job well, but it's quite sticky. If you move around a lot in your sleep, you might get it on your pillow. I use a slightly thinner layer now."

Frequently Asked Questions (your questions, answered) (common queries)
- Is the plumping effect from this mask permanent?
- No, the plumping effect is cosmetic and temporary. It comes from intense hydration which makes lips look fuller, and from ingredients like Volufiline™ that support lip volume with consistent use. The effect will fade if you stop using the product.
- Is it sticky? Will it get on my pillow?
- The mask has a rich, balmy texture that can feel slightly tacky to ensure it stays on the lips overnight. If you apply a very thick layer, some transfer is possible. Most users find a normal layer absorbs well and stays put.
- Can I use this if I have sensitive skin?
- Yes, it's generally suitable for sensitive skin as it's packed with nourishing oils. However, it does contain fragrance. We always recommend performing a patch test before first use if you have known sensitivities.
- How does it compare to the LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask?
- Both are excellent overnight masks. The main difference is that the TOCOBO mask is certified vegan and contains specific plumping ingredients like vegan collagen and Volufiline™. The LANEIGE mask focuses primarily on intense hydration with its Berry Fruit Complex™ and is not vegan.
The Final Verdict (At-a-Glance) (summary of pros and cons)
- Best For: Those looking for a vegan, intensely moisturizing overnight lip treatment with an added plumping benefit.
- Key Benefits: Deeply hydrates and softens lips, visibly smooths fine lines, and provides a subtle, natural-looking plumping effect over time.
- Keep in Mind: The texture is thick and can feel tacky to some. The plumping effect is cosmetic and not permanent. The product comes in a pot, which requires using a spatula or clean fingers for hygiene.
