6 month update: This baby lives in my purse and I have one on my desk. She’s keeper. More nourishing than anything I can buy here in the over the counter. I will order more.
Torriden Solid-In Ceramide Lip Essence: Completing my trio like a good little skincare collector. 😂 It’s not as thick as the CosRX lip masks, but definitely a step up from your drugstore Lippies. Perfect for daytime Show more
Torriden released a lip balm, so I tried it. It feels nice and is quite moisturizing, but it reminds me of Vaseline. Of course, it’s convenient since you don’t need to use your hands, but honestly, just buying Vaseline works just as well.

My lips keep getting flaky and I keep peeling them off, which usually leads to bleeding and scarring. This balm hydrates and absorbs well, but I haven't seen an improvement in terms of healing and repairing. Mediocre overall.
