Tips and tricks at the end
I got this and month or two ago. My eyes were hollow and lips were thinner from over 100lb weight loss, 11 lines were prominent and nasolabial folds were not great. I'm 34 and going through perimenopause and also have a connective tissue disorder. I saw a difference in maybe two weeks. Now my 11 lines are gone, my eyes look at least 10 years younger, nasolabial folds are only visible right under my nose instead of all the way down to the corners of my mouth and my lips have almost doubled in size.
Tips and tricks of learned along the way:
Use extra moisturizer in the spots you want to apply and let it sit for 10-15 mins before applying.
Use either a WET qtip for precise application.
I recommend putting a rollerball on the bottle, or using a dark glass rollerball container to transfer the product into so you get every drop (the packaging sucks). Before I did this, I put a few drops in the cap and used a qtip to apply. A dry qtip will soak up most of it, that's why I suggest wet.
Don't go all the way to the lash line. Any product you put in that tends to migrate up and you DON'T want this in your friggin eye hole.
Once at night is enough to get results. It's too oily to wear anywhere but your lips outside the house anyway.
For the eyes, don't just place in your hollow. Go a little below so you're not just encouraging bags to form under your eyes(I saw one person do that with another brand and it scared me).
Be consistent. It works and works well. I didn't have high hopes despite the hype. I'm picking up another bottle tomorrow because this is now a staple I will use until I'm in the grave.
Highly recommend

Unfortunately Doesn't Do What It Says It Will Do
I was not gifted this product and I'm not in my 20's.
I have used this product for 2 months day and night and it has done absolutely nothing to improve the plumpness of my skin. I wish I had read these 1 star reviews before spending my hard earned money. I'd like to know if I can return this product because it didn't do what it said it would do.

Very oily
Am going to return this. The formula is extremely oily ( at least for me). Barely a few drops needed and my face was very oily. And as one user pointed out, the dispenser is poorly designed

Do Not Recommend. Oily and Doesn't Absorb.
I bought this item, not a gift. Functions as a thin, oily treatment. Applied to clean skin, even dry skin, it does not absorb. Could possibly be an occlusive layer over other products, but then specialty ingredients are wasted. Bottle stopper makes it impossible to co trol how much comes out, it's either nothing or too much. Waste of money. Do not recommend.

Just ok
I was hopeful when I bought this tiny vial. I have deep lines below the corners of my mouth and “elevens” that I hoped would fade. The elevens have smoothed out because I had Botox, but there doesn’t seem like there’s anything for the downturned mouth lines other than expensive filler. This serum is oily and while it seems to moisturize those areas beautifully, I don’t see any plumping happening. My skin is dry so I like it but I can’t imagine that anyone with oily skin would appreciate the extra greasiness this brings.

WOW!!!
I have been using this product for a week, and am amazed! I don't write many reviews, but this product earned my 5 stars. After applying this, I can see my fine lines around my lips and eyes plump or disappear. It's like a magic eraser. I did follow the tips from another review to apply it with a q-tip, and that seems to work well to not waste any product. I basically apply it to my laugh lines/under eyes, smile lines, and on/around my lips. I've never used botox or fillers, and am very happy with these results. Will be adding it to my subscribe and save!

Causes pilling
This volufilene for me, unfortunately, causes anything under it to pill up. It is also quite oily and does not soak in for me when layered over vitamin c or peptide serum or moisturizer. So I can only use it on the backs of my hands. That said, it does give a nice plumping effect there.
