Recommendation for a firm sleeping lip mask that saved my cracked and bleeding lips
I highly recommend this holy grail lip mask. I used to never even dare to wear matte lipstick because my lips would get severely chapped and cracked throughout the dry seasons, but now I have completely settled on this and am scraping every last bit out of the container.
I used to have a very bad habit of biting off the dead skin on my lips with my teeth whenever I was anxious, so there were many days when they would bleed and sting. However, ever since I started applying a generous amount of this product before going to sleep, the condition of my lips has changed completely.
It has a texture much thicker and stickier than a typical stick lip balm, similar to Vaseline ointment. If you apply a very thick layer to your bare lips before bed, it acts as a powerful moisturizing barrier that does not evaporate overnight.
The next morning, when you wake up and brush your teeth and wash your face, if you gently rub your lips—which have been softened by water—with a wet finger, the old dead skin cells will slough off very smoothly and without irritation, just like dead skin.
Lips with rough dead skin cells neatly smoothed become as soft as a newborn baby's skin, so even if you apply a matte and thick tint on top, the color applies beautifully and perfectly without settling into wrinkles.
Whenever my lips feel dry even during the day, if I apply a very thin layer with my finger, they look plump as if I have applied a clear lip gloss, and a pretty, glass-like shine gives them a lovely finish, so I am really satisfied.
It is a very gentle product free of artificial fragrances and dyes, and contains mild moisturizing ingredients, so even those with sensitive skin around their lips that easily turns red can use it generously every day with complete peace of mind, without worrying about breakouts.
Since it comes in a jar, it is a bit inconvenient to have to scoop it out with your finger or a spatula every time when you are out and about, but the moisturizing power is so incredible that it offsets all those minor drawbacks, so I am 100% willing to repurchase it and will keep it for the rest of my life.
If there are any community members out there who, like me, are stressed out by extremely dry lips that crack and bleed every day, make sure to buy this lip mask during the cosmetics sale this weekend, apply a generous amount, and go to sleep!!
