AM/PM. Apply 2-3 times a day or whenever lips feel dry and need instant moisture. Can be layered under lipstick, or as a moisturizer on top. With consistent use, lips will be noticeably healthier and fuller due to the retention of moisture.

The first two active ingredients in our formula stimulate Collagen and Hyaluronan synthesis, by tricking the skin into thinking it needs to repair itself, resulting in a natural reproduction of Collagen and Hyaluronan increasing collagen resulting in fuller, more hydrated lips. By signaling the increase of the collagen fiber count and better arranging the layout they help to improve definition and volume.
Palmitoyl Oligopeptide and Phytokine ™ helps fill the gaps within the connective tissue, and functions as a cushy gelatin-like material providing structural support, drawing in moisture from the surrounding air and binds it to itself, reinforcing the connective tissue which improves volume and elasticity.
To lock moisture within the lips we use complex ingredients, mixing of two specific lipid types; namely Glycolipids and Ceramide-3 (Sphingolipids). These lipids soak into the skin where they reinforce the lips’ natural moisture retaining barrier thanks to their water retentive properties.
Lipids go into the epidermal barrier, and prevent moisture from escaping.
Finally, we condition the lips with Tribehenin, a skin conditioning agent that works as a smoothing lubricant and humectant forming a protective barrier on the skin, slowing down water loss and helping to keep the skin hydrated. Think of this as the final coat of varnish that seals in all the moisturizing goodness.
So on the one hand, LIPSMART boosts the natural water attracting components of the lips and on the other hand, LIPSMART builds a wall to reserve and lock moisture in.
