Dry, cracked lips can feel uncomfortable and look uneven under lipstick.
The Ordinary Squalane and Amino Acids Lip Balm is a deeply hydrating, barrier-supporting lip treatment formulated to instantly relieve dryness while helping restore soft, smooth lips.

Powered by Squalane and a blend of Amino Acids, this lip balm works to replenish moisture, support the natural skin barrier, and protect against environmental dryness. Its lightweight, non-sticky texture makes it ideal for everyday wear—alone or under lip color.
