French Lip Balm Cherry 7 ml

The French Lip Balm Cherry by ODEN combines rich lip care with a hint of color. Sunflower, cherry kernel, and sweet almond oils provide dry and chapped lips with nourishing lipids, while beeswax forms a protective film and helps retain existing moisture.

The special feature of this edition is the French cherry kernel oil. It contains a high proportion of linoleic and oleic acids, as well as naturally occurring tocopherols and phytosterols. This complements the lipids in sensitive lip skin, softens rough areas, and supports its natural protective barrier.

• Product type: rich lip balm with a subtle tint
• Suitable for: dry, chapped, rough, and tight-feeling lips
• Care: plant oils leave lips soft and supple
• Protection: beeswax supports the protective lipid film and reduces moisture loss
• Color: alkanet extract imparts a transparent, natural rosy tint
• Finish: nourished, soft, and slightly glossy, without a sticky feel
• Key ingredients: cherry kernel oil, sunflower oil, sweet almond oil, honey, beeswax, and vitamin E
• Quality: with organic honey and organic beeswax, made in France; not vegan

Honey complements the formula with moisture-binding and nourishing properties. Alkanet root extract provides a subtle rosy tint that makes the natural lip color look fresh and vibrant without appearing like opaque lipstick.

The melting texture feels pleasant on the lips and leaves a soft, smooth, and nourished feeling without a sticky finish. A delicate cherry scent also makes the Cherry Edition the fruitier alternative to the classic French Lip Balm.

Key ingredients

• Cherry kernel oil: Rich in linoleic and oleic acids as well as natural tocopherols and phytosterols. Its nourishing lipids support the skin barrier, help reduce moisture loss, and leave dry or rough lips soft and supple.
• Sunflower and sweet almond oils: Sunflower oil primarily provides linoleic acid, while almond oil is rich in oleic acid. Together, they complement the natural lipid film, smooth rough lips, and reduce feelings of dryness or tightness.
• Beeswax: Forms a fine, protective film on the lips and thereby helps retain existing moisture for longer. At the same time, it gives the balm its rich, softly melting consistency.
• Honey: Supports moisture retention and leaves dry lips supple. Together with plant oils and beeswax, it contributes to a long-lasting nourished and comfortable feeling on the lips.
• Alkanet root extract: This plant-based color extract gives the balm its characteristic rosy color. On the lips, the tint remains transparent and enhances their natural color.
• Vitamin E: Has antioxidant properties and also supports the stability of the plant oils it contains.

How to use

• Pick up a small amount with your finger and spread evenly over the lips.
• Use in the morning, throughout the day as needed, and in the evening as a rich final care step.
• For very dry lips, apply a slightly more generous layer in the evening.
• Use within 6 months after opening.

The balm is especially suitable for dry, chapped, rough, or tight-feeling lips. Plant oils, honey, and beeswax combine intensive lipid care with protection against further moisture loss.

Only a very subtle amount. Alkanet extract gives the lips a transparent rosy tint and makes their natural color look slightly fresher.

In the Cherry Edition, French cherry kernel oil replaces hazelnut oil. It also contains alkanet root extract for a subtle rosy tint and a fragrance composition with a delicate cherry character.
