Zao Colour & Plump Lip Oil

I love Zao's Colour & Plump Lip Oils, they are perfect for adding hydration, shone and protection to you lips! 

The formula is enriched with Argassential, a plumping active ingredient made from argan, plus peppermint for irresistibly plump lips! These ingredients increase the volume of your lips by around 8% after 28 days of daily use. 

The Lip Oils nourish and beautify lips in a single step; a perfect fusion of colour and care! It's light, non-sticky texture glides easily onto lips, leaving them feeling light and comfortable all day long. 

Certified organic and Vegan, this product is also 100% natural and refillable.

Packaged in a unique, varnished bamboo case, Zao makeup is both a beautiful gift and an item to treasure. Bamboo gift pouches are available here for purchase separately for gifting purposes.

ZAO BEAUTY TIP - To ensure your gloss does not run into the lines of your lips, dust with Mineral Silk. You can also apply a lipliner pencil to the contour of your mouth to keep your oil intact. This will structure your smile with a subtle sparkle.

MY FAVOURITE INGREDIENTS

• Argan Extract: In addition to its nourishing, antioxidant and regenerating properties, this active ingredient in argassential is the secret to plumping up your lips and boosting your natural
  collagen.

• Peppermint extract: Its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties, helping to relieve chapped and irritated lips. What's more, its antibacterial qualities help to keep lips looking perfect.

• Ricin Oil: Its fatty acid, ricinoleic acid, makes this oil a beauty treatment with astonishing virtues. Known since ancient times, it relieves skin ailments through its softening, purifying and healing action.

HOW TO REFILL?

All of Zao products are refillable and with Zao making great changes to their packaging, most are now plastic free! Can't see a refill available on my site? It's because Zao haven't brought out their plastic free option yet, but as soon as they do, it will be available at Plastic Freedom!

REFILL YOUR LIP INK

1. Remove lid and pull out the lip inkapplicater (you get a new one with your refill)
2. Unscrew the white part on the lip ink and remove
3. Remove the tube inside (this can be washed and recycled so although this isn't 100% plastic free you're saving a lot of plastic in comparison to normal mascaras as you can not recycle the whole tube)
4. Remove the sticker from lip ink refill and slot into the bamboo tube - there is a ridge that slots into the tube perfectly
5. Push the applicator into the bamboo lid
6. Re-attach the white metal part to the bamboo tube
