Monika Heiligmann Elixir de Volume Lip Volumizing Serum

Elixir de Volume is a lip volumizing serum from Monika Heiligmann Paris that wears like a tinted gloss but works like a treatment. One swipe gives lips an immediately fuller, smoother look and a sheer wash of colour, while the formula keeps working with regular use to build volume and definition over time. It's a needle-free way to enhance natural lips, and a beautiful complement to in-clinic lip treatments.

How it works

The formula is built around the brand's Volumizing Peptide Complex (VPC-Complex), which works across multiple layers of the lip: an instant plumping effect on application, plus peptides that support the skin's natural renewal for longer-term results. After 21 days of consistent use, lips look visibly fuller and rounder, more sculpted, and better defined.

Key benefits

• Volume – instantly fuller-looking lips, with results that build over time
• Hydration – immediate and lasting moisture for soft, silky lips
• Definition – firmer-looking lips with more defined natural contours
• Colour – a sheer, glossy tint that enhances your natural lip colour

Key ingredients

• LIPerfection™ – purified organic mustard sprout extract that plumps, hydrates and refines the lip contour
• Volulip™ – a plumping peptide that supports lip structure and hydration
• LineFill™ – helps increase lip volume and moisture while smoothing roughness
• PLUMP Oléoactif® – supports cell renewal for a firmer, fuller look
• Hyaluronic acid – a lip-specific form (Technohyal Hyalperl) for deep hydration

Microplastic-free, with nourishing mango and shea butters and botanical oils including meadowfoam, raspberry seed and jojoba.

Clinical results

In a 30-day, 20-subject dermatologist-assessed study reported by Monika Heiligmann:

• 95% agreed lips looked visibly smoother and more moisturized
• 100% said their lips looked shinier and more radiant
• 85% saw an improvement in the overall appearance of their lips after 4 weeks

How to use

• Wear on its own like a gloss and reapply throughout the day as needed.
• For the best volume, contour and colour results, apply at least twice daily for three weeks.
