The Exfoliating Lip Serum is scientifically engineered to provide gentle exfoliation while delivering intense hydration and moisture retention through a synergistic blend of chemical and physical exfoliants, emollients, humectants, and soothing agents. This sophisticated formulation ensures comprehensive removal of dead skin cells, nourishment, and protection at the molecular level, resulting in revitalized, smooth, and supple lips.

Lactic Acid (3%)

Lactic Acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) renowned for its gentle exfoliating properties. In lip care, Lactic Acid works by breaking down the bonds between dead skin cells on the lip surface, facilitating their removal and promoting the regeneration of new, healthy cells. At the molecular level, Lactic Acid penetrates the lip tissue to soften and dissolve keratin, enhancing cell turnover and resulting in smoother and more refined lip texture.

Glycolic Acid (2%)

Glycolic Acid, another alpha-hydroxy acid, is highly effective in removing dead skin cells and promoting cell renewal. Its small molecular size allows it to penetrate deeply into the lip layers, ensuring thorough exfoliation. By accelerating the shedding of dead cells, Glycolic Acid reveals fresher, more hydrated lip skin, reducing roughness and enhancing overall lip smoothness.

Papaya Enzymes (2%)

Papaya Enzymes, derived from the papaya fruit, act as natural exfoliants that gently break down dead skin cells without the need for harsh chemicals. These enzymes soften and smooth the lip surface, providing a gentle yet effective exfoliation that improves lip texture and appearance. Additionally, Papaya Enzymes contain antioxidants that help protect the lips from oxidative stress and environmental damage.

Jojoba Beads (5%)

Jojoba Beads are natural, biodegradable particles that provide gentle physical exfoliation. Unlike synthetic microbeads, Jojoba Beads are environmentally friendly and effectively slough off dead skin cells without causing irritation or abrasiveness. This physical exfoliation complements the chemical exfoliants, ensuring a comprehensive removal of dead skin and promoting smoother, more supple lips.

Shea Butter (10%)

Shea Butter is a rich emollient that deeply nourishes and restores moisture to the lips. Composed of fatty acids such as stearic, oleic, and linoleic acids, Shea Butter penetrates the lip layers to provide intense hydration and softness. At the molecular level, Shea Butter forms a protective barrier that locks in moisture, preventing dehydration and maintaining the lips' natural elasticity and suppleness.

Beeswax (10%)

Beeswax is a natural wax that creates a protective barrier on the lips, sealing in moisture and preventing transepidermal water loss (TEWL). This occlusive layer shields the lips from environmental aggressors such as wind, cold, and pollutants, reducing dryness and chapping. Additionally, Beeswax provides a smooth application experience, ensuring even distribution of the serum across the lip surface.

Coconut Oil (5%)

Coconut Oil is known for its excellent moisturizing and softening properties. Its medium-chain fatty acids penetrate the lip tissue, delivering essential nutrients that repair and strengthen the lips. At the molecular level, Coconut Oil binds with the lip's lipid layers, restoring moisture balance and enhancing the lips' natural barrier function. This interaction reduces dryness, imparts a natural shine, and leaves the lips feeling soft and supple.

Glycerin (5%)

Glycerin is a powerful humectant that attracts moisture from the environment into the lip layers. At the molecular level, Glycerin forms hydrogen bonds with water molecules, facilitating the movement of moisture into the stratum corneum of the lips. This mechanism ensures sustained hydration, preventing dryness and brittleness by maintaining optimal moisture levels. Additionally, Glycerin stabilizes the lipid bilayers within the lip cells, enhancing elasticity and resilience.

Vitamin E (Tocopherol) (2%)

Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that protects the lips from oxidative stress and environmental damage. At the molecular level, Tocopherol neutralizes free radicals, preventing the degradation of lip lipids and proteins. This protection helps maintain the structural integrity of the lips, reducing signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles. Additionally, Vitamin E's moisturizing properties enhance the serum's ability to retain moisture, ensuring long-lasting hydration and softness.

Aloe Vera Extract (5%)

Aloe Vera Extract is rich in polysaccharides, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals that contribute to lip hydration and soothing. The polysaccharides form a protective layer on the lips, maintaining moisture balance and preventing dehydration. Aloe Vera's anti-inflammatory compounds, such as aloin and emodin, reduce lip irritation and inflammation, creating an optimal environment for lip health. Furthermore, Aloe Vera enhances the synthesis of collagen and elastin in the lip tissue, reinforcing the structural integrity of the lips and promoting overall lip vitality.

Natural Flavor (1%)

Natural Flavor is added to provide a subtle, pleasant taste to the lip serum, enhancing the user experience without contributing to the scent profile. At the molecular level, Natural Flavor interacts with the taste receptors on the lips, offering a mild and agreeable flavor that complements the moisturizing benefits of the lip serum.

Aqua (Water) (53%)

Water acts as the primary solvent and carrier for the lip serum, facilitating the dispersion and uniform distribution of active and inactive ingredients. It serves as the medium for chemical interactions and the activation of humectants and emollients. At the molecular level, water molecules interact with hydrophilic ingredients like Glycerin and Hyaluronic Acid, enabling their effective delivery and penetration into the lip tissue. Additionally, water contributes to the lip serum's texture and viscosity, ensuring a smooth and easy application experience while enhancing the ease of spreading without leaving a sticky residue.

• Aqua (Water) (53%): Solvent and base; hydrates and dissolves other ingredients for a consistent formulation.
• Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) (5%): Deeply hydrates and repairs damaged lips; attracts and retains moisture within the lip tissue.
