Works for
MoisturizingDiisostearyl malate, Caprylic/capric triglyceride + 4 moreWorks
“Spreading over your lips like butter, the gel-like balm restores dry lips with an instant hit of long-lasting, nutrient-rich moisture.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: caprylic/capric triglyceride, theobroma cacao seed butter.
Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. This is why an additional product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best results).
