Tell us if you agree: the current beauty landscape is overflowing with products and crowded with promises. Right?! So, it can be tricky to know what really works and what is, well, meh.
NU•RISH’s new Bioactive Lip Oil is one of the gems.
Proudly Canadian and founded in Quebec by Dr. Isabelle Huot, an entrepreneur with a PhD in nutrition, the beauty brand brings a refreshingly intelligent perspective to skincare/makeup. Plus, all of its products are made with 99.7 to 99.9 per cent natural ingredients, rich in antioxidants and designed with both health and environmental mindfulness in mind, including our new favourite lip-plumping oil.
Lightweight yet deeply restorative, this lippie delivers. Its core ingredient PLUMP Oleoactif, is a patented bioactive complex that works to visibly enhance the volume of our pout while ensuring our lips stay nice and hydrated. (Think: more fullness than inflation.) The formula is layered with nourishing plant oils, including jojoba and avocado, along with pomegranate flower to soften and smooth while reinforcing the skin barrier. Antioxidant-rich and replete with hydrating hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture throughout the day, it also helps protect against environmental stressors while its subtle watermelon scent adds a fresh vibe. And then there’s the maximum high-gloss shine, that give us just the right no-makeup/makeup look we want, but without any of the tacky sticky feel we dislike.
We can use it as much as we like too: alone for an effortless, polished finish, layered over lipstick for impact or, even, tapped on before bed as an overnight treatment. It’s makeup meets skincare with all the best results.
