When exposed to the sun, most UV filters generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), causing the inflammatory responses that age skin. DiamondCore™ is the breakthrough technology that reverses this process, eliminating 80% of ROS and preventing the reactions that cause aging.

SPF value measures UVB protection, but UVA accounts for 95% of UV rays that accelerate skin aging. Our patent-protected DiamondCore® zinc oxide is rated PA++++, offering the highest UVA protection possible.

In laboratory studies, DiamondCore® facilitated 2x more effective skin absorption of “bioactives”, key anti-aging ingredients you’ll find in our Photoaging Defense Cocktail, such as niacinamide. This allows these ingredients to work more effectively to reverse the signs of aging and restore the radiance of your skin.

The skin on your lips is thinner and contains less UV-protective melanin than the skin on the rest of your face. This makes them more vulnerable to UV damage and photoaging. Photoaging on lips often appears as lip thinning, wrinkling, a condition called venous lake, and even filler migration. This is because UVA-induced photoaging causes collagen degradation, compromising the natural (or cosmetically filled) structure of your lips.

Lip Defense goes beyond UV protection—it is a restorative treatment that reverses damage, restores collagen, and provides long-lasting hydration for naturally fuller lips. It restores 91% of collagen production, reinforces skin barrier and reverses past damage while providing unparalleled UV/HEVL, PA++++ protection. It nourishes and protects lips from thinning, wrinkling, and filler migration.

A first in the industry, Lip Defense uses only mineral active iron oxides to color all three shades. These iron oxides provide rich, vibrant tones and additional UV protection and work synergistically with DiamondCore® to defend against Reactive Oxygen Species, particles at the root of all aging. Lip Defense does not contain synthetic dyes, lakes, or titanium dioxide typically used in color cosmetics because these can often be irritating to those with sensitive, eczema-prone, or inflammation-prone skin.

Yes, Lip Defense with DiamondCore® reverses damage, restores collagen, and provides unparalleled UV defense, and long-lasting hydration for naturally fuller lips. Lip Defense doesn’t contain any of the tingle-inducing irritants in traditional lip-plumping glosses. It contains high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid, jojoba esters, and bisabolol, which deeply hydrate and moisturize lips. Lips look more supple, plump, and softened. UV damage and subsequent photoaging can degrade lips’ natural collagen matrix and lead to lip filler degradation and migration. DiamondCore® zinc oxide provides PA++++ rated protection against UVA radiation, the UV rays most closely associated with photoaging, in addition to SPF 30. By providing comprehensive UVA, UVB, and Blue Light protection, Lip Defense can make lip filler last longer and stay where it should.

Lip Defense is a light but deeply moisturizing and comfortable oil. Lip Defense is never sticky and provides a natural-looking high shine.
