Maybelline Baby Lips Moisturizing Lip Balm – Look at the label
Maybelline New York Baby Lips Moisturizing Lip Balm is a top selling product on Amazon this week. Let’s look at the label to see why.
In order to be a good moisturizer lip balm needs to blend several different types of ingredients. And this product seems to cover the bases nicely:
Polybutene – a hydrocarbon that acts like a silicone to provide a good moisture barrier.
Octyldodecanol and Isopropyl Myristate – oily materials that provide good spreading.
Petrolatum – The best occlusive moisturizing ingredient available.
Polyethylene, Ozokerite, and Candelilla Wax - to give the product a thicker/firmer consistency.
And of course it contains a reasonable level of sunscreen actives (SPF 20) which is important to protect your lips.
All in all, this appears to be a very effective product based on its ingredients.
