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.”

• Apply at night on dry lips.
• Gently squeeze tube to dispense formula and glide evenly across lips.
• Allow to fully absorb before applying lip balm as final step.
• For best results, use with Barrier Baste Lip Baste.
• Use nightly.
• When using the Lip Peel, remember to apply sunscreen during the day.
