There is no bond greater than that between a person and their lip balm. Or should we say lip balms - given most of us are guilty of having a handbag lip balm, a car lip balm, a bedside lip balm, and probably more.

And while most may not think about a lip balm as a skincare product, we believe lip care is severely underrated. Which is why we developed our lip balm to deliver everything you’d like from a lip balm, plus threw in a few (actually, a lot) extra skin care ingredients to ensure your lips would be soft, plump and healthy from the moment you wake up, until… well, the moment you wake up again.

So let’s get to know our Dusk to Dawn Lip Balm and what makes it so darn good.

What is it?

Well, it’s a lip balm, but it does so much more than your average lip balm. Lip care is part of your skin care routine, so we took a while to develop this one so it ticked all of the right boxes.

What does it do?

Everything! Ok, maybe not your taxes or the dishes, but it does a lot.
Let’s start with the basics. As a lip balm, it will absolutely, 100% care and support your lip health. So it’s loaded with ingredients to tackle dryness and chapped lips, deliver incredible nourishment, and keep lips feeling soft, supple and plump.
But we’ve also given it a fresh, tropical and utterly delicious watermelon and mint scent for a hint of sweetness and flair, and to top it all off, it gives a gorgeously glossy sheen, making it the easiest way to finish any makeup look.

What’s in it?

A lot of incredible nourishing and strengthening ingredients you usually find in skincare, but here’s a run down of just a few:

Rosehip Oil, to help nourish, soothe and strengthen.
Watermelon Extract, to help protect and hydrate chapped lips.
Shea Butter, to condition skin and lock in moisture.
Sweet Almond Oil, to tackle dryness and leave lip soft and supple.
Vitamin E, to deliver long-lasting moisture, repair and soothe.

When should I apply it?

As often as you’d like! It’s been specifically formulated to give you long-lasting nourishment, so you won’t feel the need to reapply, but hey, who doesn’t love a little lippie reapplication?

We love starting our day by using it during our skincare routine, so that it works to prep lips ahead of lipstick application, too.

But does it feel thick and sticky?

Nope, not at all! While the formula feels thick and juicy, we’ve especially made sure it doesn’t feel sticky or tacky - so no need to worry about your hair on a windy day!
