“This berry active-infused lip balm both locks in moisture to provide lasting hydration whilst coating them in a strawberry scented, buttery smooth formula that leaves the lips feeling soft and supple all day long.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: caprylic/capric triglyceride, hydrogenated poly(c6-14 olefin).
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).
