Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Ceramide NP is a type of ceramide.
Ceramides are intercellular lipids naturally found in our skin that bonds dead skin cells together to create a barrier. They are known for their ability to hold water and thus are a great ingredient for dry skin.
Ceramides are an important building block for our skin barrier. A stronger barrier helps the skin look more firm and hydrated. By bolstering the skin ceramides act as a barrier against irritating ingredients. This can help with inflammation as well.
If you would like to eat ceramides, sweet potatoes contain a small amount.

I could give this product 100/5 stars if I could. This lip balm is my hero for my chronically dry lips. I live in California and the dry climate has never been friendly for my skin and my lips. I never have to worry about my lips peeling from dryness ever again. I put it on in the morning and at night. I love that it lasts throughout the day. It makes my lips feel moisturized and healthy and it Show more
used this last night with the Laneige lip sleeping mask and woke up with thoroughly soft, hydrated lips. it has a mint flavor, but it didn’t irritate my lips. the finish is like a clear lip gloss, so you could probably use it for that purpose, or use it as a glossy topper for matte lipsticks and other lip color products.
