Why You’ll Love The Ordinary Squalane + Amino Acids Lip Balm:. Moisturises the lips, cuticles and elbows.. Mimics the moisturising compounds found naturally in the skin .. Protects lips from water and moisture loss.. Lightweight balm texture that doesn’t disappear.. Convenient, pocket-sized applicator.. What The Ordinary Say:. The Ordinary Squalane + Amino Acids Lip Balm is our first multi-use hydration balm designed to soften, nourish and boost moisture within the lips. Formulated with well-loved hydrator Squalane, our balm leverages its emollience to provide immediate, long-lasting hydration and skin barrier support.. This highly moisturising balm is also formulated with a unique blend of Amino Acids that helps retain and seal in moisture while also offering noticeably softer skin. This formulation can also be used to nourish, soften and smoothen elbows and cuticles.. Why It’s Escentual:. We love The Ordinary’s straightforward and affordable skincare! With the launch of their much-awaited lip balm, they now have every step of your routine covered. And in true The Ordinary fashion, there are no bells and whistles, just a nourishing lip balm that’ll leave your lips (cuticles and elbows) looking and feeling deeply hydrated and comfortable. The packaging is minimalistic but quirky (it reminds the team of a highlighter pen), coming in a small 15ml round tube design that’ll fit into any handbag or pocket with room to spare.. The Best Way To Use It:. Apply the balm directly to lips as often as needed. A little bit goes a long way so apply a small amount and layer as needed.. Values:. Oil-free, cruelty-free, fragrance-free.
