Four shades, one treatment

Meet the four shades

Every shade is the same peptide lip treatment. Pick by the colour you want, or by the job your lips need doing. $40 per shade.

Smooth as butter

The texture you will want to reach for every single day

It melts the moment it touches your lips. Warm, lipid-rich and glossy, it sinks in instead of sitting on top. There is no tack, no heavy slick, no waxy film. Just a soft, cushioned finish that feels like a treat and a treatment at once. As one reviewer, Mary, put it: "a very nice tinted lip balm that is not sticky."

The nourishment is the point. Vitamin E, coconut and shea butter, jojoba seed oil and castor oil work together to moisturise and condition delicate lip skin. All-natural light-reflecting pigment spheres catch the light so lips look fuller, bouncier and more defined the second you swipe it on.

Here is the part that surprises people. Worn under your favourite lipstick, Collagen Lips becomes the perfect primer. Skin is conditioned, smoothed and ready, so colour glides on evenly with richer payoff. In Chia J.'s words: "lipstick went on as smooth as butter, with amazing depth of colour."

  • A daily tint: sheer, glossy colour with skincare-grade nourishment built in.
  • A lipstick primer: prep and smooth your lips so colour goes on like butter, with more depth.
  • A lipstick alternative: enough plush, light-catching colour to wear on its own.

The real reason

Why lips age faster than the rest of your face

Your lips are not built like the rest of your face. The skin is far thinner. It has no oil glands of its own, so it cannot moisturise itself the way your cheeks do. And like everywhere else, it loses collagen over time. Thinner, drier, with less of the structure that keeps lips full. That is why lips show their age early, and often first.

Here is the part nobody tells you. Most lip care only sits on the surface. It coats, it feels nice for an hour, then it wears off with your coffee and your conversations. You reapply, and reapply, and nothing actually changes. That is not a flaw in your routine. It is the ceiling of what a basic balm can do.

  • Lip skin is far thinner than facial skin, so it shows ageing sooner.
  • No oil glands, so lips cannot self-moisturise and stay dry.
  • Collagen loss over time means flattening and a loss of fullness.
  • Surface-only balms wear off, so the dryness and thinning keep returning.

So treat it for what it is. This is a skincare problem, not a balm problem. The glossy tint you already reach for should be doing the deeper work a balm never could. That is exactly what Collagen Lips was made to do.

From our founder

We treat lips like skincare, not an afterthought

Felicity Evans explains why lips need more than a balm

"The lips are delicate and quick to lose hydration, which is why I never believed a basic balm could fix them. Collagen Lips is a peptide treatment that works on texture, definition and fullness over time, not just surface moisture. Your lips deserve to be part of your skincare routine, not an afterthought."

Felicity Evans
Founder & CEO, IMBIBE

Treatment, not topcoat

How it treats while it tints

Most lip products sit on the surface and stop there. Collagen Lips works deeper. That is the whole point, and it is what makes $40 a treatment price rather than a gloss price.

The active is a bioactive collagen peptide at a targeted 7kDa molecular weight. As the product warms on your lips it melts and integrates into the lip tissue, supporting hydration, smoothness and elasticity. Then the Signature Fatty Acid Complex goes to work, anchoring and retaining those peptides to extend moisture retention. It is why reviewers say they can still feel it hours later, even the next morning. Treatment that stays put, not slip that wears off by lunch.

tingle or irritation, unlike plumpers

Around the actives sits lipid-rich nourishment: Vitamin E, coconut and shea butter, plus jojoba seed oil and castor oil acting as a natural humectant to draw in moisture. The colour comes from all-natural, light-reflecting pigment spheres that make lips look fuller and bouncier. That is the optical side of the effect, working alongside the treatment side.

What is inside

Clean, certified organic, made to work deeper

Every ingredient earns its place, chosen to nourish, hold moisture and treat your lips over time. Here is exactly what goes on your lips, and what each one is there to do.

7kDa collagen peptides

Targeted to a small molecular weight so they melt in and integrate, supporting hydration, smoothness and elasticity.

Signature Fatty Acid Complex

Anchors and retains the peptides in the lip so moisture lasts hours, not minutes.

Vitamin E, coconut & shea

Lipid-rich nourishment for soft, conditioned lips, with jojoba and castor oil to hold moisture in.

Light-reflecting pigment

All-natural pigment spheres catch the light for fuller, bouncier-looking lips from the first swipe.

Clean, certified organic ingredients. Formulated and made by IMBIBE in Australia.

First feel

That tiny grain is the treatment working

Here is what to expect the first time you apply it. You will feel a slight grain on your lips. That is not an exfoliating particle and it is not a flaw. It is the collagen peptides themselves.

As Collagen Lips warms against your skin, that grain melts and releases into the lip tissue. So the texture is the proof. Feeling it means the actives are right there, going to work. The melt is quick and the finish is smooth and glossy. No tingling, no sting, no irritation, just a skincare-grade treatment integrating into delicate lips.

Care, not irritation

No tingling. No irritation. Not a plumper.

If you have ever tried a lip plumper, you know the sting. That hot, prickly burn that promises fullness and just leaves your lips raw. Collagen Lips does none of that. No tingling. No stinging. No irritation.

Fuller-looking lips come from care, not punishment. Deep hydration softens and smooths. Light-reflecting pigment spheres make lips look bouncier and more defined. And the bioactive collagen peptides work over time, treating your lips with every wear. The look builds, it does not burn. You can wear it morning to night, layer it under lipstick, or sleep in it as an overnight mask.

Hands down the best lip product ever

I'm on my fourth tub of Bare Silk. I've also bought Plum Honey twice for daytime, and Rich Red for special occasions. Obsessed.

The best lip balm I've ever owned

So moisturising. My lips are naturally thinning with age and this really hydrates and plumps. I love Bare Silk for an overnight mask. I can still feel it the next morning, 8 hours later.

One jar, four jobs

Four ways to wear it

Most lip products do one thing. Collagen Lips does the work of several: an overnight treatment, an everyday tint, a lipstick primer and a lipstick alternative, all in one 8g jar.

Overnight

Lip mask

Smooth a generous layer on before bed and wake to soft, hydrated lips. The Signature Fatty Acid Complex holds the peptides in place so the moisture lasts.

Best in Bare Silk
Daytime

Your-lips-but-better tint

A warm, natural wash of colour with treatment built in. Nourishing to wear and never sticky.

90's Nude or Plum Honey
Before lipstick

Smoothing primer

Apply underneath and your lipstick goes on smooth as butter, with more depth of colour.

Bare Silk first
Instead of lipstick

Lipstick alternative

Glossy, pigmented colour that treats your lips while you wear it. In studies, 98% found Plum Honey effective as a lipstick alternative.

Plum Honey or Rich Red

One product, not three

Where it sits in your makeup bag

Most lip routines stack three products that each do one thing: a balm for moisture, a gloss for colour, a plumper for fullness. Collagen Lips does all of it, and treats your lips while it works.

Everything you want to know before your first jar

Is this just an expensive lip gloss?

No. Collagen Lips is a skincare-grade peptide treatment that happens to tint. It is built around a targeted 7kDa collagen peptide and a Signature Fatty Acid Complex that anchors those peptides so moisture lasts longer. One 8g jar does the work of four products: a tint, a lipstick primer, an overnight mask and a lipstick alternative.

Why does it feel slightly grainy when I put it on?

Those tiny granules are the collagen peptides themselves, not exfoliating grit. As the product warms on your lips, the peptides melt and release into the lip tissue. The texture smooths away in seconds.

Will it tingle or sting like a lip plumper?

No. There is no tingling and no irritation, unlike traditional plumpers, and multiple reviewers confirm it. It is gentle enough for daily use. As Lauren S. put it, "after using it my lips are thicker and plumper. There's no tingling feeling like with lip plumpers."

Does it actually work?

Yes, and the results are measured. In a 7-day study on Bare Silk with 70 women aged 18-65, 100% reported an overall improvement in lip appearance and 100% agreed their lips felt more moisturised. It also holds a 4.9 star rating from 1,146 reviews.

Which shade should I start with?

Choose by how you want to use it. Bare Silk is the sheer hydration hero for treatment and overnight wear. 90's Nude is your warm everyday nude. Plum Honey is your berry tint for daytime colour. Rich Red is the glossy, pigmented red for special occasions. Want all four? The Signature Set is $128 and saves you $32.

Is it clean, and is there a guarantee?

Yes. Collagen Lips is made with certified organic ingredients by IMBIBE in Australia, and it is backed by a 40-day money-back guarantee. It is Commended at the Beauty Shortlist Awards 2025 and an Editor's Choice (Makeup / Lips) at the Clean + Conscious Awards 2025. Shipping is free on orders over $80.
