GlyMed Hydrating Lip Balm

A rich, minty balm for dry, cracked lips

GlyMed Plus Hydrating Lip Balm is an incredibly moisturizing lip balm and the perfect weapon against dry, cracked lips. It calms dry, irritated lips with rejuvenating botanicals such as jojoba, avocado oil, and sunflower seed oil, while peppermint and spearmint leave you feeling cool and minty fresh. It glides on smoothly for a soothing, anti-aging lip solution that helps keep lips looking plump and youthful.

Why lips need a real balm

Lips have very thin skin and no oil glands of their own, so they cannot make their own protective oils. They lose moisture quickly in cold, windy weather, dry indoor heat, and the sun, and licking them only makes it worse. A good balm combines plant oils that nourish with occlusive ingredients that seal moisture in, so lips stay soft long after you apply it.

Key ingredients

• Jojoba esters: closely resemble the skin's own natural oils, helping lips feel soft and supple.
• Sunflower seed oil: rich in fatty acids that support a healthy lip barrier.
• Avocado oil and olive oil: nourishing plant oils that soften and condition.
• Shea butter and beeswax: help seal in moisture and protect against the elements.
• Grape seed oil and vitamin E: antioxidant-rich ingredients that condition dry lips.
• Peppermint and spearmint oils: give a cool, refreshing, minty feel.

What it does

• Soothes and softens dry, chapped, or cracked lips
• Seals in moisture so lips stay comfortable longer
• Leaves a cool, minty-fresh feeling
• Keeps lips looking smooth, plump, and youthful

Who it's for

Anyone with dry or chapped lips, especially through Ohio winters, and anyone who wants an everyday balm that does more than coat the lips. It is also a great overnight step to pair with a lip treatment.

How to use

Apply about half a pea-sized amount to the lips morning and evening, or as needed throughout the day. For overnight care, apply a generous layer before bed and let it work while you sleep.

Building your routine

1. Treat in the morning with a lip treatment like GlyMed Lip Enhancer or LIPSMART.
2. Protect during the day with Lip Shine SPF 35 when you will be in the sun.
3. Seal and repair at night with a generous layer of GlyMed Hydrating Lip Balm.

Frequently asked questions

Does it have SPF?
No. If you will be outdoors, layer a lip product with SPF during the day.

Will the mint tingle?
Peppermint and spearmint give a cool, fresh feeling. If your lips are very cracked or raw, that coolness can feel stronger. Stop using it if you notice stinging or irritation.

Can I wear it under lipstick?
Yes. Apply a thin layer, let it settle for a minute, then add your lip color. Save the thicker layer for nighttime.

Can I use it after lip blush or lip filler?
Always follow your provider's aftercare instructions first. Once your lips have healed, a nourishing balm helps keep them hydrated. If you had lip blush with us, ask us when it is safe to start.

My lips are still cracked after a couple of weeks. What should I do?
Lips that are bleeding, blistering, or not improving with regular care should be checked by your healthcare provider.

Can I use it while pregnant or nursing?
Please check with your healthcare provider before starting any new product during pregnancy or nursing.

Esthetician tip

Keep one on your nightstand. Applying a thick layer right before bed gives your lips hours to soak it in, and you'll wake up to softer, smoother lips. Ask us about lip care at your next appointment.
