Medik8

The cosmeceutical brand has created its first lip balm. Named Mutiny, the product is squalene-based and has been formulated to replenish lost lipids and support the natural healing of chapped lips.

Unlike many other lip balms, it does not rely on occlusives such as petrolatum, which can form a fake barrier. Instead, Mutiny is a gel-like balm intensified with plant-sourced sea buckthorn oil, which infuses the top layers of the lip skin with omega oils.

RRP: £19
