MoisturizingDimethicone, Copernicia cerifera wax + 6 moreWorks
“A swathe of hydrating ingredients (soybean and liquorice, we're looking at you) coats the lips with a layer of moisture while the velvet-matte texture leaves lips looking plumper and more pronounced.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: caprylic/capric triglyceride, copernicia cerifera wax.
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).
