A thin layer. That’s the whole method.

Lip Lavish is a clear oil, not a gloss. One pass on clean lips is enough. Two passes start to feel like you are wearing something. The point is softness that lasts through a commute and a dry-air office — not a shine you have to check in a window.

The vanilla is faint on purpose. If someone across a table can name the scent, you used too much. The red lip-print lid is so you can find it in a bag without looking.

Keep it with the keys. Use it when your mouth feels tight, not on a schedule. If you want the smaller everyday version for a desk drawer, that is the balm.
