Ultra-Long Lasting & Transfer-Resistant Wear:
- Key Ingredients: Dimethicone, Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Vinyl Dimethicone/Methicone Silsesquioxane Crosspolymer, VP/Hexadecene Copolymer, Synthetic Wax, Tribehenin.
- How it Works: These silicones and film-forming polymers create a flexible, breathable, yet highly water-resistant film on the lips. Synthetic waxes and tribehenin solidify the formula, locking pigment in place. This combination minimizes transfer onto cups, masks, or clothing and resists fading from talking or light eating/drinking.
Velvety Soft, Blurred Matte Finish:
- Key Ingredients: Synthetic Fluorphlogopite (Synthetic Mica), Silicas (CI 77891 - Titanium Dioxide often acts as a texture modifier too), Polyglyceryl-2 Triisostearate, Diisostearyl Malate, Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone.
- How it Works: Synthetic mica provides a soft-focus, light-diffusing effect, blurring lip lines. Silicas and specific esters (Diisostearyl Malate, Polyglyceryl esters) absorb excess oil and create a smooth, non-sticky, truly matte (not flat or drying) finish. The silicones ensure seamless glide and blendability.
Intense, Pure Color Payoff:
- Key Ingredients: High concentrations of various CI pigments (e.g., CI 77491/77492/77499 - Iron Oxides for browns/reds; CI 15850 - Red 6/7 Lake; CI 45410 - Red 28 Lake; CI 19140 - Yellow 5 Lake; CI 15985 - Yellow 6 Lake).
- How it Works: The high pigment load combined with the smooth, emollient base (Dimethicone, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Octyldodecanol) allows for rich, opaque color application in a single swipe. The matte finish intensifies the perceived color.
Comfortable, Non-Drying Wear:
- Key Ingredients: Jojoba Seed Oil, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Octyldodecanol/Octyldodecyl Alcohol, Sorbitan Isostearate, Polyglyceryl-3 Diisostearate, Tocopherol (Vitamin E).
- How it Works: While matte and long-lasting, the formula incorporates lightweight emollients and oils (Jojoba is particularly skin-like) that prevent the lips from feeling tight, cracked, or overly dry. Vitamin E provides antioxidant benefits. These ingredients ensure comfort throughout wear.
Smooth Application & Blurring Effect:
- Key Ingredients: Dimethicone, Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Diisostearyl Malate, Polyglyceryl-2 Triisostearate, Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite.
- How it Works: Silicones and specific esters provide exceptional slip, allowing the product to glide effortlessly over lips and blur imperfections without settling into fine lines. The texture is designed for easy, even application.
Nourishing & Protective Elements:
- Key Ingredients: Jojoba Seed Oil, Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1.
- How it Works: Jojoba oil mimics the skin's natural sebum, providing moisturization and conditioning. Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect lips from environmental free radicals. Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 is a peptide that may offer subtle plumping or conditioning benefits over time, adding a skincare-like element.
Lightweight Feel:
- Key Ingredients: Dimethicone, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Octyldodecanol, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite.
- How it Works: Despite being highly pigmented and long-lasting, the formula relies on silicones and volatile esters that feel light on the lips, avoiding a heavy or tacky sensation.
Subtle Conditioning & Barrier Support:
- Key Ingredients: Phytosteryl/Octyldodecyl Lauroyl Glutamate.
- How it Works: This ingredient is a lipid complex derived from plants and amino acids. It helps reinforce the skin's natural barrier, improving moisture retention and providing a conditioning feel.
In Summary: Pink Bear Wonder Last Lip Mud delivers:
- True Long-Wear: Stays put for hours with minimal transfer.
- Comfortable Matte: Velvety, blurred finish without dryness or tightness.
- High Impact Color: Rich, opaque pigment payoff.
- Effortless Application: Smooth, even glide that blurs lip lines.
