Science Behind the Product – Gloss
Here is a partial list of some of the ingredients in the LipSense Glosses and the roles that they play:
Dimethicone, Octoxynol-40, Isolaureth-6 – Silicone emollients which add to the silky feeling of the gloss.
Beeswax – A highly refined thickening agent used for its emollient properties that creates a coating over the lips to help seal in moisture.
Butyrospermum Parkii – The scientific name for Shea Butter, considered as a plant lipid. Lipids are the oil and fat components of skin that prevent moisture evaporation from the skin and provide lubrication to the skin’s surface. Lipids are considered as a natural moisturizer.
