Dealing with persistently dry, flaky, or uncomfortable lips can be frustrating. This is not just a cosmetic issue; it's a sign that your lips' natural moisture barrier is compromised.

• What it is: A fragrance-free, deeply nourishing lip balm stick.
• What it does: Uses a powerful blend of ceramides (MLE®), panthenol, and madecassoside to soothe irritation, repair the skin barrier, and lock in moisture for hours.
• Who it's for: Anyone with dry, chapped, peeling, or sensitive lips. It's gentle enough for daily use by adults and teens.
• Texture & Finish: A smooth, non-waxy, non-sticky balm that glides easily and leaves a soft, comfortable, natural sheen.

1. Cleanse: Start with a clean face.
2. Apply [THIS PRODUCT]: Swipe the balm directly onto clean, dry lips. One to two passes are usually enough.
3. Protect: Follow with your daily sunscreen in the AM, making sure to cover the skin around your lips. Reapply the balm throughout the day as needed.

Mindful Tip: Already have a lip balm you're using? It's better to finish that one first before opening a new one. Substitute, don't accumulate.

1. Cleanser: Wash your face as usual.
2. Skincare: Complete your regular toner, serum, and moisturiser steps.
3. [THIS PRODUCT]: Apply a thin layer to your lips. This acts as a great primer for lipstick.
4. Sunscreen: Apply an SPF 30+ sunscreen as the final step, ensuring you protect the skin around your mouth.

1. Cleanser: Double cleanse to remove makeup and sunscreen.
2. Skincare: Apply your evening serums and moisturisers.
3. [THIS PRODUCT]: Apply a slightly more generous layer to your lips before bed. This allows the ingredients to work overnight to repair and soften your lips.

• Amount: One or two swipes across the top and bottom lips is sufficient. No need to apply a thick layer for daytime use.
• Method: Apply directly from the tube to clean, dry lips. Can also be applied over lip tints for added moisture and shine.
• Frequency: Apply as often as needed throughout the day, especially after eating or drinking, and always apply a layer before bed.

If-This / Then-That:

• If your lips are extremely chapped: Apply a generous layer at night as an overnight lip mask.
• If you wear matte lipstick: Apply this balm 5-10 minutes beforehand to create a smooth, hydrated base and prevent the lipstick from drying out your lips.
• If you spend a lot of time in AC: Keep it handy and reapply every few hours to counteract the drying air.

Safety: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. While gentle, it is designed for the lips, not for use on broken skin elsewhere.

This is a gentle, supportive product designed for consistent use.

• Daily Use: Apply in the AM under sunscreen and in the PM as the last step of your routine.
• As Needed: Reapply throughout the day whenever lips feel dry, tight, or after eating and drinking. There is no limit to its frequency.

This product does not contain strong actives and does not require alternating nights. It can be used every day and night without issue.

• Immediately: Lips feel instantly soothed, comfortable, and hydrated. The balm provides a protective barrier against moisture loss.
• Within 1 Week: With consistent daily and nightly use, you should notice a significant reduction in dryness, flaking, and chapping. Lips feel softer and smoother.
• After 4 Weeks: The lip barrier is healthier and more resilient. Lips maintain their moisture for longer periods, and the frequency of application needed may decrease.

• Instead of Licking Your Lips: Saliva contains digestive enzymes that break down the delicate skin on your lips, making them even more dry and irritated. This balm provides a protective, healing barrier that saliva strips away.
• Instead of Using Basic Petroleum Jelly Alone: While petroleum jelly is a great occlusive (it seals moisture in), it doesn't provide any hydration itself. This balm contains humectants and barrier-repairing ingredients to both add moisture and seal it in for more effective, long-term healing.

• Works Well With: This lip balm is compatible with all other skincare and makeup products. It can be layered under or over lip tints and lipsticks.
• Use Carefully With: N/A. This is a gentle, supportive product.
• Avoid On: Do not apply on broken or infected skin. For lips only.

• All Skin Types: Yes.
• Dry & Dehydrated: Excellent. Specifically formulated to combat dryness and restore barrier function.
• Sensitive & Reactive: Excellent. It is fragrance-free and contains soothing ingredients like allantoin and madecassoside.
• Oily / Combination: Yes. It provides moisture without feeling greasy or heavy.

• Dry, dehydrated lips
• Chapped or cracked lips
• Flaking and peeling
• A compromised or weak lip barrier
• Discomfort from environmental stressors (sun, wind, AC)

• Who Should Use It: Suitable for all, including adults and teens with dry, sensitive, or chapped lips.
• Who Should Be Cautious: While rare for a lip product, if you have a known allergy to any specific ingredient listed (e.g., castor seed oil), please review the INCI before use.
• Patch Test Protocol: For lip products, a traditional patch test is less common. Simply apply a small amount to one section of your lips first. If you experience any stinging, burning, or swelling within 24 hours, discontinue use.
• If Irritation Occurs: Stop using the product immediately. Cleanse the area with a gentle cleanser and apply a simple, soothing balm you know your skin tolerates. If irritation persists, consult a healthcare professional.

• pH: Not applicable for an anhydrous (water-free) product like this balm.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: Not applicable for lip use.

• Issue: Lips still feel dry after application.
  Solution: Ensure you are well-hydrated by drinking enough water. Apply the balm consistently, especially before bed. You can also try gently exfoliating your lips once a week with a soft washcloth to remove dead skin, allowing the balm to penetrate better.
• Issue: The balm feels a bit hard in the tube.
  Solution: This can happen in cooler temperatures. Simply warm the tube between your hands for a minute before application to soften the product.

• Humid Summers: The non-sticky, non-greasy formula is comfortable to wear even in high humidity. It won't feel heavy or melt off your lips.
• Drier Winters / AC Environments: This balm is an essential tool to combat the drying effects of indoor air-conditioning and the slightly cooler, drier winter air.
• Storage: The stick format is stable. However, like all balms, avoid leaving it in direct sunlight or a hot car, as it can soften or melt. Store at room temperature.

• Our Sourcing: At Adilsons, we source our products directly from the brand or their authorized distributors in South Korea. We guarantee 100% authenticity.

The performance claims for this product are based on the following evidence tiers:

• Brand Claim: The effectiveness of the MLE® technology in mimicking the skin's natural lipid structure is a central claim made by the parent company, Neopharm, based on their internal research and development.
• Ingredient Rationale: The benefits of ingredients like Panthenol (soothing, hydration), Madecassoside (healing), Allantoin (softening), and Vitamin E (antioxidant) are well-established in dermatological literature.

No independent, peer-reviewed clinical studies on this specific finished product are publicly available for verification.

This product is formulated to be functional and respectful of consumer needs for gentleness, avoiding common irritants like fragrance. We present it as a tool for comfort and barrier health, encouraging use as needed rather than as an obligatory step if your lips are already healthy.

• Size: 3.3g
• Estimated Uses: With an average of 3-4 applications per day, this lip balm is estimated to last approximately 3 to 4 months.
• Cost-per-Use Analysis: This makes it a cost-effective solution for daily, long-term lip care and repair, especially when compared to frequent purchases of less effective balms.
• Reorder Cadence: We recommend planning to repurchase every 3 months if this becomes your daily-use lip balm.

No in-catalog pairings available today—this product still works well solo with your current cleanser and daily sunscreen.

This lip balm is an excellent choice if your primary concerns are intensive, fragrance-free repair for a compromised lip barrier.

If you have different needs, consider these alternatives:

• For Sun Protection: Look for a dedicated lip balm with at least SPF 30. Choose this for daytime use if you spend significant time outdoors.
• For a Sheer Tint: If you want hydration plus a touch of colour, a tinted lip balm would be a better choice for a one-step makeup and care routine.
• For an Intense Overnight Treatment: If your lips are severely dry, consider a thicker, jar-based sleeping mask specifically for lips to use nightly.

Mindful Consumption Note: If you already have a lip balm at home that works for you, there’s no need to add another right now. Finish what you have first to avoid waste and give your current product a fair chance to deliver results.

• Format: 3.3g solid balm in a convenient, hygienic, twist-up plastic tube.
• Applicator: The slanted tip allows for easy, direct application to the lips.
• Sustainability & Recycling (Mauritius): The outer paper box is recyclable. The plastic tube (likely PP or mixed plastics) may not be recyclable in all local facilities; please check with your local council's guidelines.
• Travel-Friendliness: The solid, compact format is perfect for travel and carrying in a pocket or bag without risk of leakage.

Note: These are aggregated sentiments and individual results may vary.

• "This is the only thing that's helped my chronically chapped lips. It's not waxy at all, just smooth and hydrating. I put it on at night and wake up with soft lips." — Paraphrased from Reddit, r/AsianBeauty (2024 thread)
• "I love that it has no fragrance or taste. It creates a nice barrier and helps my lipstick go on smoother. It's not super glossy which I prefer for daytime." — YesStyle review (2024-05)
• A Fair Caveat: "It works really well but I have to reapply it after drinking or eating, which is normal for any lip balm. It's not the most long-lasting if you're not careful, but the healing effect is worth it." — Paraphrased from Amazon customer review (2023-11)

• Is this lip balm sticky or greasy?
  No, it has a smooth, non-sticky, and non-greasy texture that feels comfortable on the lips and provides a natural, healthy sheen.
• Can I use it under my lipstick?
  Yes, it works beautifully as a hydrating primer for lipstick, especially matte formulas. Apply it 5-10 minutes before your lipstick to allow it to absorb slightly.
• Does it have any taste or smell?
  No, it is completely free of fragrance and flavouring agents, making it perfect for sensitive individuals.
• How is it different from other lip balms?
  Its key difference is the MLE® technology, which goes beyond simple occlusion (like petroleum jelly) to actively repair the lip's moisture barrier for longer-lasting health and resilience.

• Best For: Those with persistently dry, chapped, or sensitive lips who need serious barrier repair, not just temporary moisture.
• Key Benefits: Deeply hydrates, soothes irritation, repairs the skin barrier with MLE® technology, and is free of fragrance and flavour.
• Keep in Mind: This is a reparative treatment, not a glossy cosmetic product. It does not contain SPF, so you'll still need to be mindful of sun protection for the skin around your lips. Reapplication is needed after meals.
