Softwear
Make dry lips obsolete with Softwear– an innovative, 3-in-1 lip treatment that goes beyond traditionally occlusive balms to hydrate, exfoliate, and protect even the driest, crustiest lips. The dual-phase formula delivers instant hydration + gentle chemical exfoliation in a cocooning barrier of squalane, pomegranate sterols, and petrolatum for soft n’ smooth lips that last all day.
DAILY APPLICATION
Apply Softwear to lips as often as needed for soft n’ smooth lips that last all day.
HARD REFRESH
Lay it on thick as a mask before bed for refreshed lips by morning.
PAIRING MODE
Layer under lip color for a hydrated base. Layer over lip color for a soft dewy sheen.
7% WATER + GLYCERIN
Just add water! Lip balms typically lack water, so they don't actually deposit moisture. Softwear combines glycerin - the gold standard humectant for hydration - with water to immediately increase hydration in the lips.
0.2% HYDROXYCAPRYLIC ACID
This gentle chemical exfoliant is a lipophilic (oil-loving) AHA that helps stimulate cell turnover to smooth crusty lips without irritation.
10% POMEGRANATE STEROLS + PETROLATUM
These two occlusives work together to help enhance the lip barrier function, protecting from dryness and discomfort by locking in moisture.
63% SQUALANE
A nourishing, non-sticky base of Squalane, similar to ‘squalene’ naturally present in the skin, softens and replenishes lips.

How we achieved this:
- Choosing lightweight compact packaging
- By incorporating 23% of PCR resin in the tube packaging, we’ll avoid using the equivalent of 895 virgin plastic water bottles this year
Is Softwear vegan?
Yep! Softwear is vegan and does not contain any animal derived ingredients.
Is it possible to over-exfoliate with Softwear?
Hydroxycaprylic Acid is the chemical exfoliant that powers Softwear’s smoothing capabilities. This lipophilic (oil loving) AHA has a large molecule size, meaning it has a lower irritation profile than AHAs like glycolic and lactic acid. It helps slough off of dead skin cells removing those dry crusties, revealing soft, smooth lips. Knowing that lip balms are used frequently throughout the day, it’s included at a low, but efficacious level.
Is Softwear glossy? Is it sticky??
Softwear is a true lip balm, not a gloss. It glides on clear with a medium shine and leaves a balmy dewy finish. Due to the squalane base, the formula isn’t sticky– we promise.

HYDRATE: 52% increase in hydration eight hours after single application
EXFOLIATE: 85% saw reduction in roughness and flaking after 1 week of application
PROTECT: 32% reduction in transepidermal water loss eight hours after single application
So good I’m staying strapped at my wedding

This is a rebuy for me, and a constant recommendation. It was a rec from my biggest influencer, Karen Stubbs and I haven’t looked back. I’m getting married in two weeks and it’s going in the pocket of my wedding dress!
Nighttime staple
17 Days Ago
This is a nighttime staple that sits on my nightstand and is applied every night before bed. If you're still using Vaseline or a chapstick like product, please throw it away! This takes those old school lip products to a new level. Highly moisturizing, stays through the night and my lips are always perfectly hydrated. Prior to using this my tretinoin would migrate to my lips and cause peeling. This used before my tret application stops any dryness and lip peeling. Would love to see this in a tinted version and/or an SPF version for day!
Yes ma'am
