Most lip products sit on the surface and wear off within the hour. This one behaves more like skincare, which is precisely the intention — Torriden's Solid In line is built around low-molecular hyaluronic acid, and the lip essence brings that same approach to the one bit of skin that has no oil glands of its own to protect it.
The texture is the reason people repurchase it. It's light and almost watery going on, more essence than balm, with none of the tackiness that makes a glossy lip product unbearable in wind or hair. It sinks in rather than sitting on top, leaving lips soft, comfortable and gently glossy — a natural finish rather than a shine.
It's mild enough for the most sensitive lips, and works just as well over lipstick during the day as it does as a nourishing layer overnight. Dry, flaking lips settle down within a few days of consistent use.
How to use
Apply directly to clean lips whenever they feel dry, and reapply through the day as needed. At night, use a slightly more generous layer as an overnight treatment. It layers happily over lip balm or lipstick without going patchy.
