Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Emollient, Skin Conditioning

Diisostearyl Malate is an emollient and most often used in lip products. It comes from isostearyl alcohol, a fatty acid, and malic acid, an AHA.

As an emollient, Diisostearyl Malate helps create a thin film on your skin to trap moisture in. This helps keep your skin soft and smooth.

Emollient, Skin Conditioning

Hydrogenated Polyisobutene is a synthetic polymer. Polymers are compounds with high molecular weight. Hydrogenated Polyisobutene is an emollient and texture enhancer.

In one study, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene showed better skin hydration levels than Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride. As an emollient, it helps keep your skin soft and hydrated by trapping moisture in.

Hydrogenated Polyisobutene is often used as a mineral oil replacement.

I didn’t realize that there was a difference between the original version and this one (ex). Apparently, this one has a shorter list of ingredients and includes exfoliators. It works fine but did clog the hell out of one of my pores when it got onto the skin under my lips.

I have extremely dry lips, and they sometimes peel a bit.

This lip oil keeps my lips soft from night to morning, and it's extremely occlusive and moisturizing. To apply it, I drink some water first, making sure to leave water on my lips, then use the lip oil.

Some people might find it sticky. My lips are so dry I don't mind it at all, and the slight stickiness goes away in a few hours.
