Lip barrier recovery treatment

The Layer That Matters Most. Most lip balms sit on the surface. Lipid Layer helps rebuild the lip barrier itself using ceramides, hydration expanding technology, and bio-lipids for lasting comfort, smoother lip lines, and naturally fuller looking lips. Lips don't have oil glands. So they chap. They crack. They flake. And they never stop being thirsty — no matter how often you reapply. Lipid Layer fixes that — replacing the ceramides your lips are missing, cushioning the surface with water-holding spheres, and restoring the barrier so lips hold moisture on their own. A repair, not a seal.
Three treatments. One tube. The actives inside Lipid Layer usually come in three separate products — at three separate prices. Hyaluronic Micro-Spheres: plumping layer., Dehydrated spheres that absorb water and expand inside the lip — cushioning the surface and softening vertical lines. No tingle, no sting. Ceramide Complex: repair layer. A pool of ceramide NP variants that replace what dry lips are missing — rebuilding the barrier so lips hold moisture on their own. Bio-Lipid Cushion - nourishing layer. Skin-identical oils and butters — jojoba, shea, mango, squalane — that integrate with the lip instead of coating it. No petrolatum slip, no waxy drag. Prestige-tier actives engineered into a single formula.
About Isla: Most skincare is built backwards. Brands start with a trend, write a brief, and send it to a contract manufacturer they've never met. The product comes back. The marketing team writes the story. You buy it. We wanted to know what would happen if the people who actually formulate skincare were the ones building the brand.

How to apply

Apply to freshly cleaned, nearly dry skin using finger tips or cotton pad. Pat until absorbed into skin. Use morning and evening for best results.
