“Kiss your lips with the nourishing and hydrating powers of flowers with the Origins Blooming Sheer Lip Balm ; a lightweight and non-sticky pout-hydrating formula that gives lips a hint of sheer and glossy, just-bloomed colour.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: beeswax, caprylic/capric triglyceride.
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).
