Macadamia Milk Barrier Repair Lip Balm
Positioned specifically for chronic, ongoing chapping rather than occasional dryness, macadamia's sebum-mimicking omega-7 profile offers a genuinely different kind of repair than the plain moisture-sealing action of the book's other lip balms, addressing the lipid barrier itself rather than just blocking water loss.
