DHC Lip Cream is priced affordably if you get it in Japan. I used to be able to get it at ¥400+, but in my most recent solo trip to Tokyo in May 2023, I could only find one at ¥600. Maybe I didn’t shop hard enough as I was busy sorting out my itineraries and exploring places. :) Isn’t this sheer as compared to the color you see on the tube? Will the red color one be more obvious? Scroll down and take a look. Wearing DHC Color Lip Cream in #Orange Swatch of DHC Color Lip Cream (Red Tint) What is Lanolin? It is a wax derived from wool-bearing animals such as sheep. That’s why you often see Lanolin cream being sold in countries like New Zealand (lots of sheep). And in case you wonder, there’s no animal cruelty involved as lanolin is extracted by washing the wool in hot water. Squalane: Derived from olives; moisturizes and helps prevent irritation. Used as an emollient and antioxidant-rich skin protectant.

If you notice, lanolin appears earlier in the ingredient list which means it has the highest content as compared to other ingredients. DHC Lip Cream promises to nourish, hydrate and protect the lips from environmental stresses and defend against dryness. Specifically, here’s what each of the ingredients is supposed to achieve: Personally, I lean towards the original colourless DHC Lip Cream. Somehow, I’ve had the impression that they work better, i.e. more moisturising.

DHC Lip Cream leaves a soft gloss over the lips. Ladies may not mind this, but I’m not so sure if most men can accept having glossy lips.

I also carry DHC Lip Cream with me when I travel because the climate and aircraft cabin/hotel air can be drying. 2. Provides Long-Lasting Moisture DHC Lip Cream is a Japan-made lip treatment that contains moisturizing ingredients such as lanolin, olive virgin oil and vitamin E. Here’s the full ingredient list: Swatch: Red tint on top and orange below (DHC Color Lip Cream) Swatch of DHC Color Lip Cream (Orange Tint) Yes, it seems like the red one is slightly more obvious than the orange tint. However, do note that the color doesn’t last long. Therefore, if you are paying a steep premium just for color, you may like to rethink. Wearing DHC Color Lip Cream in #Red Whether the climate is cold or dry, as long as I have my DHC Lip Cream with me, my lips would never give me any problem. In fact, this is the only lip product that I would bother climbing out of bed to apply (on days when I forget to take care of my lips) before resuming my sleep.No wonder I was able to empty DHC Lip Cream easily. This, however, doesn’t stop me from repurchasing it because I think coming in a smaller quantity has its advantages. Nhưng mình cũng khuyến khích các bạn nên lựa chọn son dưỡng môi có chỉ số chống nắng thay vì DHC Lip Cream để tăng cường khả năng bảo vệ môi dưới tác động của ánh nắng mặt trời nhé! As such, I highly recommend you to include this in your Japan Must-Buy list, provided the price remains as affordable as it is today. Rating: 5/5.

I’m very confident in DHC Lip Cream’s moisturizing capability because it has never disappointed me. However, one thing you may need to know – Lanolin is a common allergen, though I’ve been fine using it despite having a long history of dry and sensitive lips. Bought these lip creams in my recent Osaka trip What DHC Lip Cream PromisesSorry about the self-promotion. Need to do a bit of marketing to help those (myself included) who are skilled in SEO and can provide long-term visibility to good products/services. Because I think many companies often just look at follower counts.

During my Osaka visit in 2019, tinted ones were also priced at a higher price, but not by much. And I bought two – in red and orange – at ¥500 from Don Quijote. Bought these two DHC Color Lip Creams in Japan Sheer & Barely Noticeable Color Organic olive oil: Rich in antioxidants, it maintains the skin’s moisture barrier and helps fight free radical damage without clogging pores. Hello! That’s a lot of cream for the lips, man! If this product isn’t travelers’ favorite, there’s no reason why it would be bundled this way, right? Because, otherwise, how can anyone consume 10 lip creams before its expiry? Being nourishing is one thing. Having the hydration lasts a long time is another. I’m glad to report that DHC Lip cream is able to achieve both. I don’t normally need to reapply DHC Lip Cream unless I’ve gone through a meal or shower. 3. A Comfortable After-feelYour lips are very delicate. The skin is easily damaged because there is not enough protective sebum, and the moisture barrier is extremely thin. With olive oil, soothing aloe essence, licorice derivatives and vitamin E, DHC Lip Cream's powerful moisturizing formula protects your lips and give them a healthy, natural shine. As you can tell, the color is hardly noticeable as compared to other tinted balms I’ve used. Half-Swatch: Upper lip is bare.
