Ingredient callouts

Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or extracted from plants. They work well for softening the skin surface and "patch holes" in the skin's barrier.

Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
Burt's Bees Overnight Intensive Lip Treatment provides long lasting moisturization for soft, smooth, healthy looking lips.
Source: Walgreens
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
glycerin, polyglycerin-3.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: caprylic/capric triglyceride, simmondsia chinensis seed oil.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: ceramide np
An emollient made of jojoba oil. Helps soften the skin and support its barrier function
Helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin
A type of lipid similar to ceramides naturally present in skin. Helps to soften the upper layer of the skin and supports the skin barrier function to keep it hydrated. Can help to prevent inflammation in skin

Anti-aging
What does the product description say?
REDUCE FINE LINES Hydrate, condition and reduce fine lines on and around your lips while you sleep and wake up to lips that are ready for an even application of lip color or lip balm.
Source: Walgreens
This product does not contain ingredients that are able to reduce fine lines and wrinkles or help with skin elasticity, but it can improve the look of the skin temporarily through moisturization. Well-moisturized skin might also be able to repair the sun damage better.
Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
EXFOLIATE & HYDRATE Give yourself an at home spa experience with Burt's Bees Conditioning Lip Scrub followed by Burt's Bees Overnight Intensive Lip Treatment formulated give you a naturally beautiful pout.
Source: Walgreens
This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
