Overview

What it is

The product is a topical formulation for the skin, primarily designed to help address the issue of dryness in the lips area. It contains a blend of components that are typically used to provide moisture and create a protective barrier on the skin surface. This product serves the usual function of a lip balm and aims to support skin hydration and protection.

Key ingredients and their functions

Beeswax - barrier agent
Dimethicone - skin conditioning agent
Petrolatum - occlusive agent
Hydrogenated Poly(C6-14 Olefin) - emollient
Phenyl Trimethicone - skin conditioning agent
Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil - emollient
Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter - emollient
Hydrogenated Polyisobutene - emollient

How it works

The formulation combines several ingredients that work together to improve the appearance of the lips by maintaining moisture and offering a protective barrier. Beeswax and petrolatum create a barrier on the lips, reducing water loss and shielding them from external factors. Dimethicone and phenyl trimethicone enhance the product's ability to condition and soften the lips. Emollients like hydrogenated poly(C6-14 olefin), sweet almond oil, shea butter, and hydrogenated polyisobutene help to smooth and maintain the softness of the lip surface by providing essential moisture and flexibility. The combination of these ingredients appears to be aimed at maintaining lip hydration and comfort.

About the brand

They say: "O'Keeffe's was started more than 25 years ago by a woman named Tara O'Keeffe, in an effort to help her Dad, Bill with his dry, cracked hands. Bill was a rancher, and he was diabetic. He had pretty bad hands that would crack and split and Tara couldn't find anything that would work for him. So Tara, being a pharmacist, brought home ingredients from the pharmacy and made what is now Working Hands, in her own kitchen. Fast forward to today, and O'Keeffe's has a loyal following of not just people who work outdoors, but also nurses, teachers, mechanics, diabetics, and people with skin conditions such as Eczema."
