DESCRIPTION

Lip Shield is more than just a regular 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 helps to protect agasint cold sores and speed up healing.

BENEFITS

Suitable for use in all climates including high altitude.
Protects against premature photo-ageing & collagen loss.
Protects against UV related HA filler degredation.
Protects against lip cancers & hyperpigmentation.
Plumps lips and improves the look of fine lines & wrinkles over time.
Regenerates, soothes, heals & hydrates dry cracked lips.

HOW TO USE

Apply daily and before exposure to the elements.
Can be used as a smooth protective base under lipstick/liner/gloss or over the top of your favourite lipstick for extra hydration.
If lips are very dehydrated or dry expect the balm to absorb deeply into the skin - apply liberally and often. As lip health improves time between re-application can increase.
Within the first few days dead skin cells may naturally lift away as the skin regenerates. Continue to use during and following this phase for soft, nourished lips. A soft muslin cloth can be used to gently wipe the lips to help remove the old skin cells.

Apply during the day following treatment with Lip Facial mask.

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 dry - will Lip Shield help?

Yes. As reported in the scientific literature, the reduction of oestrogen in peri- and menopause can lead to dryness of the lips. Skin may in some cases become more sensitive to UV. Daily UV protection & the oils within lip shield can helpful to protect the skin against UV damage & dryness.

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

Yes. UVA exposure of unprotected lips can cause 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) can trigger an outbreak.

Broad spectrum protection, specifically protecting against UVA, can 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 UVA & UVB 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. The scientific literature reports that severe dryness is an unwelcome and very common side effect of acne medication, with 97% of patients suffering, and this is often related to the skin becoming more sensitive to the sun. Broad-spectrum UV protection helps to protect the skin and may help to ease skin dryness. Consult with your doctor/dermatologist for advice.

Love this lip balm! It is literally the best. I have tried so many different brands and types of lip balms and this is better than all others. Highly recommend. SPF, not even slightly grainy, and makes your lips look plump, fresh and healthy with a lovely glossy finish - perfect!

Super Products, I’ve been using your brand for many years, I have the clear which I usually use ant night and have 3 other shades. The pale one isn’t for me but that’s your look then it’s catered for. It really does protect lips, soothe and smooth and to top it off I’ve hardly had a cold sore since using . It’s definitely worth every penny and to know genuinely that you are putting something on your lips that is good for them. Not only keeping them moisturised but protected from the elements. Worth pointing out when you fist use it. You do have some occasional flaky skin , nothing alarming but it helps with the shedding. X

Extremely happy with this lip balm. Having tried so many different makes over years this is by far the best. It soaks in and I have no longer got peeling lips and the hard bit of lip I've had (ugh!) for decades under the cupid bow has disappeared.
My lips look great. I still apply it throughout the day as you would with any lip balms but this one actually delivers.
The other big plus for me is I carry my lip balms in my jeans pocket to be on hand, however, they often get hot and, as you'd expect, melt so with application break off. The case that Albus & Flora use isn't plastic and is of very good quality (metal I believe). I have found that the case prevents the heat getting through. So, if it does get particularly hot it only softens a little on the outer edges.

Absolutely love it! Been struggling to find an spf 30 lip balm that doesn’t leave your lips with a white cast and this one is perfect, it’s just like using a nourishing lip balm. Also the service from the Albus & Flora team was fantastic, thank you so much!

This lip balm is absolutely wonderful. Feels so nice and protects me from the wind and sun. I love it.
