Product summary

"HAUS LABS BY LADY GAGA - PhD Hybrid Lip Oil" is a well-rounded moisturizing product.

Ingredient callouts

  • This moistruizer also contains peptides (palmitoyl tripeptide-38 1.30% - 1.90%). Peptides is a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of amino-acids. Our skin produces peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural anti-biotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of peptides is, but it is very likely that peptides in skincare are helpful. They might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way.

Irritation risk

There are quite a few common irritants in this product, including ingredients without particular skin benefits. We would not recommend it for sensitive skin. We assess the overall irritancy of this lip product to be medium. For a detailed overview of all potential irritants: click here
