Vertical lip lines
Small vertical lines above the lip, sometimes called "barcode lines."
Understanding it
Vertical lines above the lip form with volume and collagen loss, and with repeated mouth movements: drinking through straws, smoking, talking. They often make lipstick bleed.
The causes
What causes it

Our approach
We use a very soft product in small amounts to soften the lines without weighing down the lip. Skin boosters hydrate the skin around the mouth for a smoother, longer-lasting result.
