*Self-assessed by Adilsons based on available ingredient data (no ethanol/denat.; no haram animal-derived ingredients detected). / *Brand-stated; not certified by an independent body.

A rich, sticky, and intensely nourishing overnight treatment that melts away dead skin cells and forms a powerful moisturizing seal, healing even the most severely chapped lips while you sleep. Perfect for recovering from the effects of sun, wind, and dry indoor air in Mauritius.

Dealing with constantly dry, flaky, and painful lips can be frustrating. This mask is designed as a powerful overnight rescue treatment.

• Texture: Very thick, sticky, balm-like texture that adheres firmly to the lips.
• Core Benefit: Deeply moisturizes, exfoliates dead skin, and repairs chapped lips overnight.
• Best For: Individuals with extremely dry, flaky, or chronically chapped lips.
• Scent: Faint, natural ginger and citrus scent.

1. Cleanse: Ensure lips are clean and free of any makeup.
2. Apply [THIS PRODUCT]: Scoop a pea-sized amount and apply a thick, even layer over the lips before bed.
3. Morning: Gently wipe lips with a tissue or damp cloth to remove any softened dead skin cells.

Note: Already own a similar lip mask? Finish that first to avoid waste (substitute, don’t stack).

This is a specialized final step for your evening routine.

• Minimalist Routine: 1) Cleanse Face → 2) Complete your regular skincare routine (toner, serum, moisturizer) → 3) Apply [THIS PRODUCT] to lips as the very last step before sleeping.

• Amount: A pea-sized amount is sufficient for a generous layer.
• Apply to: Lips only.
• Method: Use a clean fingertip or a spatula to scoop the product, then spread evenly across the lips.
• Frequency: Use nightly for best results, or as needed when lips feel particularly dry.

If-This / Then-That:

• Very flaky lips? Apply a slightly thicker layer. In the morning, you can gently massage your lips with a damp cloth to help exfoliate the softened flakes.
• Prefer a less sticky feel? Use a smaller amount and blot gently with a tissue, though the stickiness is key to its occlusive power.
• Using during the day? Apply a very thin layer as a glossy, protective balm, especially in dry, air-conditioned environments.

Watchouts: The thick, sticky texture is intentional for overnight adhesion; it might feel heavy to some. It can transfer to pillows, so apply a few minutes before lying down.

Safety: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

• Daily PM: Apply a generous layer to lips every night before bed as the final step of your skincare routine.

Mauritius note: This is a perfect recovery product after a day at the beach to counteract the drying effects of sun, salt, and wind. It's also excellent for nightly use if you sleep in an air-conditioned room.

• Immediate: Lips feel instantly coated, protected, and moisturized. Discomfort from chapping is soothed.
• After 1 Night: Wake up to noticeably softer, smoother, and more supple lips. Flakiness is significantly reduced.
• After 2-4 Weeks: With consistent nightly use, lips are consistently hydrated, less prone to chapping, and feel healthier overall. The need for constant daytime balm application decreases.

Evidence: Based on ingredient rationale and aggregated user experiences. Individual results may vary.

• Why this, not that? Instead of picking at dry, flaky lips, which can cause bleeding and scarring, use this mask. It gently softens and exfoliates the dead skin so it can be wiped away without causing damage.

• MFDS Class: General Cosmetic (Not a Functional Cosmetic).

Key Ingredients Explained:

• Shea Butter (Butyrospermum Parkii Butter): A rich emollient packed with fatty acids and vitamins that deeply moisturizes, soothes, and creates a protective barrier to prevent moisture loss. (Ingredient Rationale)
• Beeswax (Cera Alba): A natural occlusive agent that forms a strong, protective layer on the lips, sealing in hydration and shielding them from environmental stressors like wind and dry air. (Ingredient Rationale)
• Sugar: Acts as a gentle, natural humectant to draw moisture to the lips and helps to softly exfoliate dead, flaky skin.
• Ginger Root Oil (Zingiber Officinale Root Oil): Provides a warming sensation that can help to gently plump the lips and offers antioxidant properties.

Full INCI List: Polybutene, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Phytosteryl Isostearyl Dimer Dilinoleate, Diisostearyl Malate, Phytosteryl/Isostearyl/Cetyl/Stearyl/Behenyl Dimer Dilinoleate, Dextrin Palmitate, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Microcrystalline Wax / Cera Microcristallina / Cire Microcristalline, Polyethylene, Glycerin, Beeswax / Cera Alba / Cire D'abeille, Tocopheryl Acetate, Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelilla) Wax / Candelilla Cera Hydrocarbons / Cire De Candelilla, Astrocaryum Murumuru Seed Butter, Triethylhexanoin, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil, Dimethicone, Zingiber Officinale (Ginger) Root Oil, Sucrose Tetrastearate Triacetate, Cymbopogon Schoenanthus Oil, Water / Aqua / Eau, Butylene Glycol, Cymbopogon Nardus (Citronella) Oil, Sucrose, Zingiber Officinale (Ginger) Root Extract, 1,2-Hexanediol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Limonene, Citral, Geraniol, Citronellol.

• Fragrance Status: Contains essential oils for scent; no artificial fragrance added. The scent is a mild, pleasant mix of sweet ginger and citrus.
• Scent Intensity: 1/5 (Very light).
• EU Allergens Declared: Contains potential allergens from essential oils: Limonene, Citral, Geraniol, Citronellol.

A patch test is always advised for those with sensitive skin or known allergies to botanical extracts.

Who should use it: Ideal for anyone with very dry to severely chapped lips in need of intense overnight care.

Who should use with caution: Individuals with known allergies to beeswax or any of the listed essential oils should perform a patch test before full use.

Patch Test Protocol:

1. Apply a small amount of the mask to a small patch of skin near your lip (e.g., the corner of your jawline).
2. Wait for 24 hours.
3. If no irritation, redness, or itching occurs, the product is likely safe for you to use on your lips. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.

• Texture & Finish: A very thick, dense, and sticky balm that creates a heavy, glossy, occlusive layer on the lips. It does not fully absorb but sits on top as a protective shield.
• Scent: A subtle, sweet, and slightly spicy scent of ginger and orange.
• pH: Not applicable for this type of anhydrous (water-free) formula.
• FA Compatibility: Contains Polybutene and Shea Butter, which may be a concern for those with fungal acne around the mouth area. Use with caution if you are prone to perioral FA.

• Issue: "It feels too sticky and heavy."
  Solution: You're likely using too much. A very small, pea-sized amount is enough for full coverage. You can also apply it and blot gently with a tissue to remove some of the excess stickiness, though this will slightly reduce its occlusive power.
• Issue: "It's hard to scoop out of the jar."
  Solution: The balm is very thick, especially in cooler temperatures. Use the back of a clean fingernail or a small spatula to easily scoop out the right amount.
• Issue: "My lips are still flaky in the morning."
  Solution: The mask softens dead skin. After waking, use a damp, soft cloth or a gentle lip scrub to manually exfoliate the softened flakes. Consistent nightly use is key for long-term improvement.

This lip mask is exceptionally well-suited for the Mauritian lifestyle:

• AC & Dry Indoors: The thick, occlusive barrier is perfect for preventing moisture loss in dry, air-conditioned offices and homes, keeping lips hydrated all night.
• Sun & Sea Recovery: After a day at the beach, this mask is an excellent recovery treatment to soothe and repair lips chapped by sun, saltwater, and wind.
• Humid Weather: While it is thick, it's designed for nighttime use, so the stickiness is less of an issue. It provides a much-needed intensive treatment that lighter daytime balms can't offer.

Mindful Use: If you already have a lip mask at home that is working for you, we encourage you to finish it first to avoid waste and get a fair assessment of its results.

• Packaging: Comes in a 23g plastic jar with a screw-top lid. It is sturdy and travel-friendly.
• Hygiene: To maintain hygiene, it is recommended to use a clean fingertip or a dedicated spatula to scoop out the product, avoiding introducing bacteria into the jar.

Aggregated sentiment from verified online communities.

• On its Texture & Longevity: "It's very thick, moisturizing and sticky (I still have the balm on in the morning)... Love how thick, creamy and hydrating it is while being cheaper than Laneige." - Reddit, r/AsianBeauty review (2023-10)
• On its Effectiveness: A user on Reddit called it their "life saviour for my dry lips," explaining, "I honestly just use the overnight lip mask as an everyday, all day lip balm. It is sooo good."

At Adilsons, we are committed to truth and transparency. We personally vet and curate every product, ensuring it is 100% authentic and sourced directly from reputable channels in South Korea. Our goal is to provide you with the clear, evidence-based information you need to make mindful and effective skincare choices.

1. Is this mask vegan?
No, the ETUDE Ginger Sugar Overnight Lip Mask contains Beeswax (Cera Alba), so it is not considered a vegan product.

2. Is it very sticky?
Yes, its texture is intentionally thick and sticky. This allows it to adhere to the lips all night long, creating a powerful occlusive barrier that prevents moisture loss and heals chapped skin. It is significantly thicker than many other popular lip masks.

3. Can I use it during the day?
You can, but sparingly. A very thin layer can act as a glossy and protective lip balm in harsh conditions. However, due to its thickness, most users prefer it exclusively for overnight use.

4. How does it compare to the LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask?
The ETUDE mask is generally considered much thicker, stickier, and more intensive, making it a rescue product for severely chapped lips. The LANEIGE mask has a smoother, less sticky, and more balm-like texture that many find more comfortable for regular maintenance.

• Best For: Individuals with chronically dry, flaky, and severely chapped lips who need a heavy-duty overnight treatment.
• Key Benefits: Provides intense, long-lasting moisture; forms a strong protective barrier; softens dead skin for gentle exfoliation.
• Keep in Mind: The texture is extremely thick and sticky, which may not be comfortable for everyone. It is not vegan due to the presence of beeswax.

• Processing & Timing: Orders process in 1–2 business days. Delivery typically takes another 1–5 business days.
