Meet the ultimate multitasker. This healing lip balm can also be used as a lip primer, cheek shiner, eyebrow shaper, to soothe dry skin, eliminate split ends, moisturise eyelashes, and soothe itchy patches and eczema. An all-round handbag essential.

“I have naturally oily skin, AND IM OBSESSED with this product!! I love that Revolution is cruelty free in the first place, but this has stopped my breakouts completely and the price for it is more than awesome.

“If there was a nobel prize for skin care, the Liquid Gold would get it. I have problems with closed comedons/bumpy skind without inflammation. Does not hurt but surely isn’t very beautiful to the eye. Tried a lot but nothng brought satisfying results. I used the Liquid Gold three times now and my face is super soft and almost completely smooth.” – Lotta
