Designed to target visible signs of lip aging, the balm has several peptides and other research-backed ingredients like vitamins E and C and green tea.
My lips have gotten just as much sun damage as the rest of my face over the last nearly five decades, and it was starting to show. I decided to try the YouthFull Lip Replenisher in a mission to combat signs of aging on my lips. I’m not overly bothered by wrinkles, but I do want to take care of my skin. Yet, I can’t slap retinol cream on my lips like I can on my crow’s feet. Lip skin is wildly delicate.
I figured one of the most promising lip-safe active ingredients would be peptides, given that certain peptides can have skin-restoring abilities and help address things like loss of firmness, dullness and fine lines and others are solid antioxidants. Although they don’t produce quick miracles — no skin care does — peptides can be effective, and some are gentle enough to be included in lip products. I tried a few of them, including Hailey Bieber’s peptide lip gloss (what can I say? she has good skin!), but nothing was really doing it for me.
More, the balm offers vitamins E and C and green tea, which have been studied to work well in tandem with peptides. Plus, the balm offers very solid moisturizers like shea butter.
