The coverage of LV Baume is buildable: a single swipe provides a delicate, sheer touch of colour, while three swipes offer deeper, more noticeable hue. For a diffused effect, blend the edges with your finger.
Used alone, the balm delivers sheer glow and buildable touch of colour. To use as a primer, apply generously to nourish and drench the lips with hydration, then blot away excess before layering lipstick for a smooth and even finish. For cleaning, use a soft microfibre cloth or a gentle sponge with mild soap, avoiding bleach or harsh detergents. Dry thoroughly to maintain its pristine condition.- The formula incorporates some upcycled ingredients from perfumery by-products.
