A cooling, minty lip oil balm with a pH-adaptive rosy tint that hydrates and plumps the look of lips. The tint is sheer, so it will not replace a lipstick for color.

Overview
A lipstick wearer looking for a primer or a cool, hydrating balm gets a melting oil balm that turns a rosy shade on contact. Menthol and field mint give a fresh tingle, and the angled tip glides on with precision.
Lips stay hydrated and look fuller with a cooling feel and a hint of personalized color. The tint is very sheer, and the minty chill will not suit sensitive lips.
Who it's for
Dry lips, lipstick prep and minimal makeup days suit this balm. Those wanting bold color or no tingle should choose a different product.
