Lightweight & Non-Sticky: The main emollients—Isopropyl Palmitate, Isononyl Isononanoate, and Squalane—are recognized for their silky, fast-absorbing textures, enhanced by Butylene Glycol and Glycerin, which provide a smooth feel without added heaviness.Soft, Creamy Glide: Ingredients like Diisostearyl Malate and Cetyl Alcohol contribute to a creamy, smooth application that is comfortable and nourishing on the lips.High-Shine, Glossy Finish: The primary function is to deliver a high-gloss, lacquer-like appearance.
This is achieved with a blend of emollients, oils, and film-forming polymers (Acrylates Copolymer, Ethylcellulose, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer), creating a flexible, shiny layer on the lips.Light Wash of Color: Features cosmetic pigments (CI 77891/Titanium Dioxide, various Reds and Yellows, Blue 1) to provide a sheer to medium, buildable tint that varies by shade (W01-W05).Hydration & Moisture Barrier: Squalane, Meadowfoam Seed Oil, and Glycerin help attract and lock in moisture, while the film-forming polymers help reduce moisture loss (TEWL - Transepidermal Water Loss).Long-Wearing & Non-Messy: The polymers aid in adherence to the lips, enhancing wear time and minimizing feathering or bleeding compared to traditional oil-based glosses.
