What it is
What it is
Consider Sensual Nude Balm for balm-style application with color and shine. This 3.5g tinted stick differs from a clear moisture-only balm. Current per-SKU disclosures for Peach, Cherry, Born Free, Moody, Poppy, Peonia and Hazelwood are separated. Older balm formulas or discontinued shades are not merged into one current list.
Ingredients forming an emollient base
Squalane, shea butter, esters, sunflower wax and carnauba wax help form the emollient stick. Ceramide NP, cholesterol and tocopherol are also listed. These do not establish treatment of cracked lips or a barrier-recovery timeline. Keep shea butter separate from its unsaponifiables, and tocopherol separate from tocopheryl acetate.
Add color lightly
Raise only a short amount and apply gently along the lip line. Add the desired color without overextending or rubbing hard. The same number of passes will not produce identical color for everyone. Avoid heat and direct sunlight, close the cap and check the formula of the actual shade.
Shade photos and your own lips
Lighting, natural lip color and amount change how a shade looks. A name or warm/cool category does not establish that it suits everyone. Choose transparency and shine first, then compare the actual color. If you have reacted to scent ingredients, check the full list for the chosen shade rather than a different one. More product or harder rubbing is not a way to manage discomfort.
A buying question answered
It is tinted makeup, so shade changes color and shine. Choose the color separately from moisturizing ingredients; compare a clear product if you only want uncolored care.
Use and comparison choices
Raise a short amount and apply lightly along clean lips. Check the color and surface, then add only where wanted. Keep the opening clean and close the cap after use.
Compare Nude Gloss for fluid shine or Powder Matte Liquid for velvet-looking color.
Other lip products are alternative finishes; layering them is not required.

Key ingredients
- SqualaneEWG 1
Squalene with hydrogen added so it no longer goes rancid, closely matching a lipid the skin already produces in sebum. That similarity is why it absorbs without sitting on top, and while it once came from shark liver, olive and sugarcane are now the usual sources.
A plant butter from the nuts of the West African shea tree, solid at room temperature and laying down a substantial occlusive layer. It is the backbone of balms and rich creams for very dry areas. Its unmistakable richness means oily-skin formulas keep the level down.
A collective name for the lipid family that builds the stratum corneum barrier alongside cholesterol and fatty acids. Actual products contain specific types such as ceramide NP, AP or EOP, and this generic listing is used when the type is not specified. The three lipid classes are understood to work best at a balanced ratio.
One of the three lipid classes that build the stratum corneum, working with ceramides and fatty acids at a balanced ratio to keep the barrier intact. Formulas aimed at dry or reactive skin typically pair it directly with ceramides.
