Revitalise your lips with Gatineau's Defi Lift Volumising Peptide Lip Treatment

And let’s face it - lip care is just as important as skincare as lips play a crucial role in our daily life.

They are responsible for talking, eating, kissing and expressing emotion whether it’s a cheeky smile or concerning grimace. Anatomy wise the skin on the lips is much thinner than the rest of the face and lacks in sweat and oil glands, making them much more susceptible to damage from various environmental factors which can often cause the lips to lose their natural moisture, leading to dryness and cracking. While like many, you may naturally lick your lips to keep them nourished, doing this does the opposite as it disrupts the pH balance and dries them out even more.

And that’s not all because as we age the supporting collagen, fat pads and muscles in and around the lip area steadily diminish, resulting in thinner lips that are more visibly lined – oh and those lines can be much worse due to particular muscular movements in those who smoke and purse when they speak.

On to top it all off blood vessels decrease in the lip vermillion in mature years (the border between your lips and the surrounding skin) causing the richness of lip colour to weaken and producing a more ‘aged’ and deflated appearance.

Half balm, half overnight mask the Defi Lift Volumising Peptide Lip Treatment brings a whole new level to the meaning ‘lip treatment’ and is the answer to all lip-related afflictions. A souped-up formula it offers everything you need in a lip salve, delivering age-defying ingredients and hydration right where you need it most.

The Defi Lift Volumising Peptide Lip Treatment has a glow version that gives lips a subtle red tint and a perfect touch of colour for the lips

This professional strength balm really blows other lip formulas out of the water with high performance proven actives including a youth prolonging Tripeptide and Swertia Chirata Extract protect vital collagen to help retain volume and improve the signs of ageing.

Bursting with a powerful fusion of conditioning Shea and Shorea Butters as well as a hefty dose of ‘super-hydrating’ Hyaluronic Acid expect to experience fuller, softer, healthier looking lips in seconds that feel immediately protected. Famed for its soothing and healing properties, the addition of Lavender extract is perfect for targeting chapped and cracked lips or those just in need of some near-instant relief.

Gently tingly on application (that’s down to zingy Menthol) lips are instantly cocooned in a ‘never sticky always shiny’ sheen which amplifies their natural colour, lending a ‘look at me’ gloss and creates the illusion of pillowy plumpness.
