Ingredients Explained

Skin Conditioning

Butyrospermum Parkii Butter is a plant lipid from the fruit of the Shea Tree. It is an effective skin hydrator and emollient.

Emollients help soothe and soften your skin. It does this by creating a protective film on your skin. This barrier helps trap moisture and keeps your skin hydrated. Emollients may be effective at treating dry or itchy skin.

Shea butter is rich in antioxidants. Antioxidants help fight free-radicals, or molecules that may harm the body. It is also full of fatty acids including stearic acid and linoleic acid. These acids help replenish the skin and keep skin moisturized.

While Shea Butter has an SPF rating of about 3-4, it is not a sunscreen replacement.

Shea butter may not be fungal acne safe. We recommend speaking with a professional if you have any concerns.

Works and then day after lips are extra peely

Somehow this really works for me as a lip balm to prevent chapped lips! My lips are chronically peeling and have not found anything that does not irritate them further.

I can only attest to the clear, coloured products usually dry me out but perhaps I'll try one when I'm feeling brave and report back.

I think this would work better as a lip serum under a moisturizer; because it’s super thin and on its own dissipates very fast. Thought it says to only use it like 3times a day??? When it dried up it left my lips extremely dry and peeling, not to mention it had an awful taste.

I’ve tried TONS of lip balms and this one really moisturizes my lips during the day, plus it has a decent spf.
