Hey bubu,
Say goodbye to the old days of Vaselines and Petrolatums (which made me break out!), and say hello to the newest in lip care, Lipcerins. I use these religiously before I go to sleep and my lips have never been more plump and soft!
Let’s get started!
Overview
This isn’t just a lip balm that seals moisture in —it’s a versatile product packed with nourishing ingredients designed to actually hydrate and bring life to your lips. Whether you’re dealing with cracks, peeling or deflated lips, it works. Let’s break down how…
Key Ingredients and Their Benefits
Propolis Extract
Propolis is a resin-like substance that bees produce to protect their hives. This magical ingredient is packed with antioxidants and has powerful anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. It’s like a superhero for your skin, fighting off free radicals and soothing irritation. Plus, it helps to speed up the healing process, making it perfect for those cracks.
Hyaluronic Acid
If your skin is as thirsty as a cactus in the desert, hyaluronic acid is your hydration hero. This molecule can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water, which means it’s incredibly effective at keeping your skin plump and moisturized.
Ceramides
These are lipids that help form the skin’s barrier and retain moisture. Think of them as the building blocks of your skin’s protective layer. They help to lock in hydration and keep environmental aggressors at bay. With ceramides, your skin stays smooth, hydrated, and resilient.
Vitamin E
This is a powerful antioxidant that helps to nourish and protect your skin. It combats oxidative stress and promotes healing, making it a key player in maintaining a healthy, youthful complexion. Plus, it’s super soothing, which is always a win in our books.
Smells and Textures: A Sensory Delight
Smell
Imagine walking through a field of wildflowers with a hint of honey in the air. That’s what opening a tube of Propolis Lipcerin feels like. The scent is light and natural, with subtle sweet notes that are soothing and uplifting.
Texture
It has a silky, almost balm-like consistency that melts into your skin. For some though, it might feel a little rich or thick, which is why I would recommend to use it at night. Despite this, it absorbs beautifully, leaving your skin feeling soft, supple, and oh-so-smooth.
Suitability for Different Skin Types: All-Inclusive Glow
Acne prone safe
I used to get painful clogged pores around my lips from using traditional lip balms and my guess is that my skin get’s clogged easily by petrolatum (petroleum jelly) products. This Lipcerin, however, has been problem free. Thank goodness! I thought I had to live with cracked lips
Application Method: How to Use for Maximum Benefits
So, how do you incorporate Propolis Lipcerin into your routine? It’s super easy, bubu! Here’s a step-by-step guide:
1. Cleanse
Start with a clean slate. Use your favourite gentle cleanser to remove any dirt, oil, and makeup. You don’t want it to trap any dirt and debris into those precious pores. Plus, it’s great to apply right out of the shower when your lips are plump.
2. Lather
Twist the top (I only do two-click turns) and use whatever comes out. The first time you use the product you might have to do a few more turns to get it moving. Gently lather onto your lips and leave for a few seconds to let it melt before massaging.
3. Night time mask
Although you can use it at any time, I like to use it at night when I sleep under the airconditioner, which tends to dry my skin. You’ll wake up to soft plump lips!
Conclusion: XOXO
In the quest for the ultimate revenge self-care, CNP Laboratory’s Propolis Lipcerin is a great introduction into the world of Lipcerins. It’s packed with hydrating ingredients that deliver real results, from intense hydration to soothing and healing benefits.
Who needs fillers when you can just use an overnight mask? Go ahead and explore the world of Lipcerins, bubu. You can thank me later.
Lots of love x
