Not your average lip balm. Meet your new go-to solution for chapped lips relief unlike any other.

Clinically proven and formulated with high-performance actives like squalane to prevent moisture loss; ceramide to improve barrier strength and hydration; and shea butter to condition and soften lips.

Baste on a true story ;)

Dr. Shereene Idriss invented the viral lip basting hack during a trip to Wyoming when no other treatment could relieve her dry, overly chapped lips. 

“I was in Jackson, Wyoming, where the air is dry AF in the dead of winter, and my lips were constantly peeling no matter what I did. I had a sugar scrub with me and was about to scrub for the hundredth time when I realized: scrubbing made my lips as flaky as a croissant.

“This common occurrence and the lackluster results of lip balms led me to start “Lip Basting,” a viral routine where I would apply a chemical exfoliator and then baste my lips with a rich body cream like they were a turkey on Thanksgiving. Inspired by this hack, I wanted to create a fool-proof system strong enough to fix my flaky lips, while gentle enough for daily use and improving the lips’ skin barrier longterm. Get buttery, basted, and smooth.”
  • Gently squeeze tube and glide across lips to distribute a generous amount of formula.
  • For best results, use at night after Barrier Baste Lip Peel.
  • Reapply throughout the day as needed.

Tips from Dr. Idriss

  • Allow the Lip Peel 15-30 seconds to absorb into your lips before applying the Lip Baste.

  • For use with makeup, you can apply a thick layer of Baste, leave it on lips for 10 minutes, and dab off the excess before applying your preferred lip color.

  • The Lip Baste contains no added artificial fragrance- peppermint oil provides a subtle minty flavor.
