Whether you’re feeling nostalgic or just want something a little lighter on your lips now that spring is in full force, this roundup will introduce you to the 2017 version of your favorite product from the 7th grade.

Gloss has long been the product choice to fake a plumper pout, and this duo does that and more. The first step is to apply SkinMedica’s HA5 Smooth, which reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on your lips. Then, top it off with the HA5 Plump, which distributes a clear gloss and had a tiny bit of tingle to, like the name suggests, give you a fuller lip look.
