Esnature Aqua Squalane Lip Balm 5g

24-hour moisture that fills from within, powered by 300,000 ppm squalane

Lips have no sebaceous glands, which makes them prone to dryness. This lip balm is formulated with 300,000 ppm of pure olive-derived squalane to address exactly that. Thanks to its structure that mimics natural sebum, squalane adheres seamlessly between the lip's layers, delivering hydration that goes beyond surface shine and truly nourishes from within. Its small molecular size ensures fast absorption and a smooth, effortless glide.

Clinically proven lip barrier care

In a clinical study with 20 adults aged 19–60, the following improvements were observed:

• 31.78% improvement in inner and outer lip hydration
• 23.99% improvement in lip flakiness
• 15.64% improvement in lip texture
• 7.1% improvement in lip moisture barrier

Enriched with natural moisturizing factors including ceramides for barrier care, cholesterol to lock in moisture, and fatty acids for intensive nourishment, this balm delivers hydration that lasts a full 24 hours. Plant-derived ingredients like sunflower seed oil, jojoba seed oil, and tocopherol add an extra layer of dewy nourishment and healthy shine.

A vegan formula gentle enough for sensitive lips

Formulated with just 12 minimal ingredients, free from fragrance and colorants. Made exclusively with EWG Green Grade ingredients, this gentle formula has completed a sensitive skin irritation test. Ideal for those who experience frequent chapping or flaking, or anyone looking to create a smooth canvas before lip makeup. Apply generously before bed, and wake up to soft, revitalized lips the next morning.

Lip care before and after makeup

Apply a thin layer before lipstick or tint to smooth the lip surface and help color products glide on seamlessly. You can also reapply after lip makeup for a hydrating, non-drying finish. Use throughout the day whenever your lips feel tight or dry.

Less is more for lasting hydration

Thanks to the high-squalane formula, a little goes a long way. Instead of applying a thick layer all at once, start with a small amount in the center of your lips and gently blend outward toward the corners. On days when flaking is more noticeable, apply a generous layer and leave it on for about 5 minutes, then gently blot with a tissue for instant soothing relief.

How to use it throughout your day

• In air-conditioned offices, lips dry out quickly. Reapply every 2 to 3 hours to keep them comfortable
• Before heading outdoors, apply in advance to shield your lips from dry, harsh winds
• Apply generously before bed and wake up to soft, revitalized lips in the morning

Products that pair well with this balm

It works beautifully with matte lipsticks or tints that tend to feel drying. Use it as a primer before lip makeup, or layer it on top for a glossy finish. You can also blend it with lip liner after defining your lip line for a naturally luminous look.

Hygienic use and storage

Store in a cool place away from direct sunlight. In summer, avoid exposing it to high temperatures, as the formula may soften. If your lips are irritated or have open cuts, pause use until they've calmed down. Free from fragrance and colorants, it's gentle enough for sensitive lips.
