What if you have dull skin? This serum can take care of that too! Brighter and glowing complexion never looked so good!

Your lips are about to get hydrated and nourished with this ultra-smooth and cushiony balm. The lemon flavor is a best-seller that not only smells great (lemon cake bars, anyone?), but it tastes great and locks in moisture without stickiness. A must-have for your bag, desk, or vanity!
