Key Benefits of Nooni Lip Mask Shea Butter

 
These are the key benefits you can expect from using Nooni Lip Mask Shea Butter:
 

Rich Moisturizer with the Right Occlusivity for Dry Skin

According to CreamScan analysis, Nooni Lip Mask Shea Butter is quite moisturizing, with a moisturizing rating of 5.2 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Significantly more occlusive. It has a low Humectancy of 0.6 out of 10 and a very high Occlusivity of 9.8 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Phytosteryl/Isostearyl/Cetyl/Stearyl/Behenyl Dimer Dilinoleate (est. ≈11.0%) and Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter (est. ≈4.0%).

This type of product, when used as a standalone moisturizer, can deliver a substantial level of occlusive hydration that is adequate for dry skin. The occlusive profile of Nooni Lip Mask Shea Butter suggests a rich, thick texture, making it perfectly suited for dry skin.

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the moisturizing rating calculation.

Things to Be Aware Of: Nooni Lip Mask Shea Butter

 
CreamScan AI identified a few things to consider before adding Nooni Lip Mask Shea Butter to your skincare routine:
 

Best for Dry Skin - May Be Too Thick for Other Skin Types

With high occlusivity, this product is optimal for dry skin but may be too thick for combination and especially oily skin. Even on normal skin, it can feel too rich depending on the quantity applied, the environment, and individual preferences.

If you have oily, combination, or normal skin and are considering purchasing this product for the first time, it might be a good idea to try a sample before buying.

If It’s Your Only Moisturizer, It’s Better When Paired with Some Humectants

An ideal moisturizer for any skin type should balance the right level of occlusivity (depending on skin type) with a significant amount of humectants, while Nooni Lip Mask Shea Butter contains a low level of humectants.

People with dry skin would definitely benefit from adding more humectants to their moisturizing routine beyond what this product offers. If this is your only moisturizer, it may be worth including a humectant-rich product, such as a serum, in your skincare routine.

Pros & Cons of Nooni Lip Mask Shea Butter

 
Here’s an overview of the pros and cons of Nooni Lip Mask Shea Butter to help you decide if it’s the right choice for your skincare routine:
 

Pros:

  • Provides the right level of occlusivity to moisturize dry skin

Cons: 

  • Ideally needs to be paired with extra humectants for optimal moisturizing efficacy
