Sodium Hyaluronate (Hilurlip)
[say it like] so•dee•um hi•al•yoo•ron•ate (hi•lur•lip)
A smaller, more uniform form of hyaluronic acid that swells on contact with water, giving lips instant, visible fullness without any irritation. It also provides antioxidant action to help protect lips from environmental stress.
Why it matters: Lips have no melanin protection of their own, so antioxidant support matters more here than almost anywhere else on the face.
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38 & Portulaca Pilosa Extract (Volulip)
[say it like] pal•mi•toyl try•pep•tide thirty•eight & por•tew•lah•kah pie•low•sah x•trackt (vol•yoo•lip)
Lip architecture technology. Where Hilurlip works on hydration, Volulip works on structure, helping improve the look of lip volume, curvature, texture and definition with continued use.
Why it matters: Collagen and elastin naturally decline with age, so lips get thinner and the lip border softens. Volulip does the long work on both.
Tripeptide-1
[say it like] try•pep•tide one
A second peptide working alongside Volulip, helping support smoother, firmer-looking lips with continued use.
Ceramide NP
[say it like] cear•a•mide n•p
A skin-identical lipid that reinforces the lip barrier, so moisture stays where you put it. It forms the seal, but it’s built from something your skin already recognises.
Why it matters: Lips have no oil glands and no natural barrier film to hold moisture in. Whatever you put on them is their entire support system.
