No matter how chapped your lips are, they are not beyond saving; actually, they can look and feel as good as they used to, maybe even better. For most of us, hyaluronic acid is the hero ingredient in at least one product in our cabinets of skincare goodies. We love it, dermatologists love it and it has found its way into every kind of beauty product. And no wonder it is so — it's highly moisturizing and has little to no side effects.
Hyaluronic acid is also one of the most common filler ingredients which derms use for injectables for lips. Though not quite the same in results as an injectable, applied topically, hyaluronic acid still has immense hydrating properties. The result — visibly hydrated and more voluminous-looking lips in one or two swipes of readily-available, non-invasive, affordable product. These 10 lip treatments, including balms and oils, all contain hyaluronic acid, but are also fortified with other powerful ingredients to heal, rejuvenate, protect and nourish the pout at the same time.
With salicornia to dramatically boost hydration levels and replenish the moisture barrier, hyaluronic acid to hydrate, smooth, and plump and prickly pear oil to moisturize, revitalize and strengthen the moisture barrier as well, this balm works to restore lips with every application.
If you'd like a touch of hue from your lip balm, this liquid one comes in 5 tender shades. It's formulated with coconut water, probiotics, avocado oil and shea butter, and it hydrates, protects lips against free radicals and pollution.
If you'd like a lot of hue from your lip moisturizer, this cushiony balm comes in 16 shades which will last up to 8 hours. The formula also contains wild mango butter for extra hydration that can last all day.
Loaded with botanicals, this lip treatment also contains Indian gentian leaves to help smooth lips, konjac root to boost moisture and help minimize the appearance of fine lines, and hyaluronic acid to plump and hydrate.
