How Does it Work?

Hyaluronic Acid:

Nano technology encapsulates the hyaluronic acid molecules which burst with hydration when entering the skin.  The bursting in the lip tissue is the secret sauce to the natural lip plumping.

Tranexamic Acid

Prevents melanin synthesis by altering the interaction of keratinocytes and melanocytes and, reducing tyrosinase activity.  Works to actively improve existing skin discolorations and also helps prevent the formation of new dark spots.  In case studies, nearly 96% of study participants who used tranexamic acid saw noticeable improvement after 12 weeks of daily use

Squalane:

Mimics the skins natural barrier. Derived from olives. Replenishes skin’s lipid barrier. Fast absorbing, non greasy, thin.

Cucumber Seed Oil:

With 60% linoleic acid, and an abundance of oleaic acid, it jumpstarts the healing process with its refreshing and healing properties.  The phytosterols in the oil aid with the structural and functional integrity of the skin and, act as an anti-radical shield. The seeds also contain Phenylalanin, an amino acid that slows down melanin transfer.

Undecylenoyl Phenylalanine:

A liposomal essential amino acid developed from phenylalanine, an amino acid involved in melanin synthesis. It is also an alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone receptor agonist that inhibits the process of melanin synthesis from the hypothalamus to produce a reduction in melanic pigments in skin cells.

Tripeptide-29:

Plumping. Firming. Encourages collagen synthesis. Small molecule that penetrates deeper. Improves dehydrated lips.
