Yuzu is an aromatic East Asian citrus fruit. Kochi Prefecture on Japan's Shikoku island is known for yuzu cultivation. Yuzu is known for a bright citrus aroma with distinctive floral notes, which can be present in its peel oil. This lip cream features yuzu peel oil, giving it a citrus-inspired fragrance that may appeal to those who enjoy fresh scents.
Beyond its fragrance, the formula contains conditioning ingredients intended to soften and protect dry-feeling lips. Yuzu seed oil and yuzu fruit extract are combined with shea butter and other emollient ingredients to help soften dry lips and reduce moisture loss.
The 7 g tube format allows convenient direct application without needing to use your fingers. It works alone through the day or as a smoothing base under a lipstick. BIKEN offers Japanese yuzu-inspired personal care products, including this lip cream.
