DESCRIPTION

Lip Shield Tint is more than just a regular tinted lip balm, it is an advanced skincare formula designed deliver multiple benefits and future proof the lips.

Unlike many balms, which can simply sit on the surface, lip shield melts into the lips to deeply nourish and stimulate the skin to produce collagen & hyaluronic acid – which in turn help to plump lips and soften lip lines. Modern broad spectrum UVB and UVA filters protect, while the oils & botanical extracts support the skin barrier for softer, healthier, younger looking lips. Our superstar Alpine Rose works to reduce the incidence of cold sores and speed up healing.

NUDE FLORA: A sheer peachy-pink neutral, with warm undertone.
MOUNTAIN ROSE: A sheer pink neutral, with cool undertone.

FAQ

The most asked questions from our Customers

Can I use Lip Shield under lipstick?

Yes - it makes a great protective base. If you want to use a lip stain or liner, we advise using that product first, then layering over the lip balm and then following with gloss if required.

Peri- and menopause is making my lips so dry - will Lip Shield help?

Yes. The reduction of oestrogen in peri- and menopause can lead to dryness of the lips and mouth which can become uncomfortable and trigger a vicious cycle of inflammation-dryness-dehydration. Skin is also more sensitive to UV and dryness is exacerbated when lips are not protected. Daily UV protection is very helpful to improve & protect skin health.

It may take 3-4 weeks for lips to improve and we advise switching to a SLS free toothpaste- since foaming toothpaste can make dryness worse.

I get cold sores a few times a year and always on holiday - can lip shield help?

Yes. UVA exposure of unprotected lips causes a degree of stress & inflammation within the cell, this depresses the local immunity of the tissue – allowing the dormant Herpes simplex virus to activate and a cold sore to appear.

Tiredness, stress & high UV (when you go on holiday) trigger an outbreak.

Broad spectrum protection specifically protecting against UVA is necessary to reduce the risk of a cold sore developing (SPF30 or even SPF50 will not help if it is not broad spectrum) which is why lip shield protects against both and harnesses alpine rose which is strongly anti-viral.

Will Lip Shield protect my lip filler or lip blush?

Yes. Scientific studies and doctors have indicated, Lip Filler can degrade more quickly when exposed to daily UV and lip blush will fade faster.

Using daily UV protection, under your favourite lipstick or gloss, or on its own will support the longevity of the filler and/or colour and is strongly advised.

My acne medication has made my lips so dry & sore - can lip shield help?

Yes. Severe dryness and cheilitis is an unwelcome and very common side effect of acne medication, with 97% of patients suffering. It is best to be proactive with lip care and you should start using lip shield daily as soon as you start taking medication - preferably before to reduce the severity of dryness.

The skins' sensitivity to UV is significantly increased in all patients on acne medication and broad-spectrum UV protection is advised. This increased sensitivity remains for some time post-medication (often 5+ years) and long-term protection is advised.
