Lips are often overlooked and not treated with the same care as skin elsewhere on the body, prompting Marin Skincare to create a hydrating, mint-flavored Lip Treatment that delivers the nourishment, protection, and lasting comfort they truly deserve.
A major complaint with many lip balms is that they paradoxically leave lips drier, flakier, and dependent on constant reapplication, trapping users in a vicious cycle where their lips never truly feel moisturized or comfortable. Marin's limited-edition, minty Lip Treatment offers a different experience with ingredients like squalane, synthetic beeswax, coconut oil, candelilla wax and perhaps the most notable of all: an upcycled by-product of lobster processing that repurposes an immensely healing, natural ingredient derived from shellfish. As Marin describes, "we worked with lobster scientists to discover a glycoprotein that allows lobsters to regenerate limbs—in the same way they do this, they help repair the skin barrier."
