SkinCeuticals has brought together two powerful antioxidants, vitamin E and silymarin, to form a unique combination antioxidant therapy for the lips. This potent treatment helps prevent environmental damage, while smoothing and rehydrating the lip surface. Use as a daily lip treatment, intense overnight treatment, during outdoor activities, for relief of lip dryness from drying prescription therapies, and to alleviate dryness and tightness associated with lip enhancement procedures.
Due to their tissue composition, the lips are naturally dry and can be particularly sensitive to dehydration and damage. In addition, dryness, time, and environmental aging cause the vermillion borders to lose their youthful outline, sometimes forming deep vertical lines above the upper lip, also known as smoker lines or bar codes. A complex of humectants and emollients made up of glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and hydroxyethyl urea help attract and retain water to rejuvenate, reshape and replenish lip tissue. Special botanical emollients hydrate and heal dry, dehydrated lips, to smooth deep lines for full, healthy, youthful lips.
Key Ingredients:
Silymarin – Silymarin contains high percentages of silybin – which is thought to be its most active component. Silymarin is a strong antioxidant, and although it is not a sunscreen, it has been shown to scavenge reactive oxygen species, and lipid per oxidation.
