lip balmunknown skin00.25oz

Key Benefits

  • Provides occlusive moisture barrier
  • Helps soothe and protect dry, chapped lips
Overall Score: 6.5/10

This product is effective for moisturizing and protecting dry lips due to its occlusive base (petrolatum) and cocoa butter. However, it contains several EU-listed fragrance allergens and synthetic fragrance, making it unsuitable for individuals with fragrance allergies, sensitivities, or highly reactive skin. Those with a history of contact dermatitis or allergies to fragrance components should avoid this product. Not recommended for children under 3 due to fragrance content. Safe for general use in adults without sensitivities. Use with caution if prone to perioral dermatitis or lip eczema.
