Editor's note
Balmy Gloss Tinted Lip Oil can be noticed on the lips for up to 2 hours.
This product has a very sheer, glossy finish and a natural-based Ginger Yuzu flavor.
The Hyaluronic Acid in 2 molecule sizes helps to promote long-lasting hydration and smooth deep wrinkles by trapping moisture within for fuller, more supple lips.
For this formula, ILIA uses an active level of .5%.
Salicornia Herbacea Extract is derived from a sea succulent that grows along the shores and marshes of densely salted water.
When used at an active level ( .25%), this ingredient has the ability to boost moisture up to 6000%.
The Balmy Gloss Tinted Lip Oil is best paired with a light layer of Color Haze Multi-Use Pigment or Color Block High Impact Lipstick ( when smudged out with your finger, for a stained effect).
Then apply Balmy Gloss over top for an amazingly slick finish.

Founder's story
Driven by her concern for “green washing”, her mother’s attentiveness to diet, healthy living and homeopathy which helped her brother, Zachary Ilia, to cure his acute asthma and severe allergies, Sasha Plavsic slowly started the creation of ILIA in Vancouver, 2011, a clean beauty line which is out to prove that functionality and stability can work hand in hand when it comes to achieving and maintaining your healthy skin and your good looks.
Throughout her twenties, Sasha was interested in design and typography, studying in London and New York, and working for brands such as Cartier, in marketing and branding.
This experience gave her a good understanding of the world of business which she later on used when she returned to Vancouver and founded the beginnings of ILIA.
The name, ILIA, is Slavic in heritage and has a double meaning.
It comes from their great grandfather who was a high-end shoe designer from Belgrade, in former Yugoslavia and it means hand made shoes and also organic and healthy, which captures the brand.
The ILIA BEAUTY promise
ILIA strives to transcend the concept of being organic and clean by incorporating a hybrid of safe synthetics and clean ingredients.
They use a large percentage of certified organic and bio-active botanicals from ethical and sustainable sources combined with a small amount of safe synthetics which enhances the performance of the products.
Each product contains up to 85% bio-active organic ingredients, sourced from organic farmers and processed in a laboratory that is certified with Gluten-Free and Leaping Bunny.
Each piece has an ethical-sustainable approach which is revealed by housing all their products in recycled aluminum cases.
Their taglines involve believing in skin that looks like skin and radiance that comes naturally.
They value transparency and always challenge the conventions of clean beauty to create something out of this world.
ILIA is committed to carve a new path by balancing safety and performance in products that truly work to make your skin look good and alive.
