Backed by 57 studies

A gel-textured lip essence layer with ceramides and occlusives for peeling, cracked lips, especially when overnight protection is needed. It suits people who hate thick balms, though the odd taste and occlusive feel lose fans.

What people love

  • Five ceramides for barrier support
  • Gel texture, lighter than thick balms

  • Some users report dryness within minutes

Product details

What the science says

Ceramides have some evidence for helping the skin barrier, with studies showing they reduce water loss and improve dry skin more than usual care 1. Petrolatum also has some evidence for supporting the barrier, often helping skin hold water and heal faster 2. For eczema, the picture is thinner: ceramide studies are split, so the evidence is not proven yet 3. Petrolatum has some evidence for easing eczema and skin scaling, though it did no better than a lipid moisturizer 4.
