Zao Lip Ink

I love Zao's lip inks, they are perfect for all day wear! They have an intense matt finish that is designed to be long lasting!

These lip inks deploy organic castor oil, renowned for its moisturising properties, as well as carnauba wax to protect skin and make the product durable, as also tocopherol, a natural antioxidant also known as vitamin E.

Formulated without synthetic preservatives and with high-quality raw materials, this refillable lipstick is suitable for all skin types, especially those with dry or chapped lips!

MY FAVOURITE INGREDIENTS

• Organic castor oil - Its specific fatty acid, ricinoleic acid, is renowned as a beauty treatment with amazing virtues. It relieves skin issues by its purifying, softening and healing action.
• Organic carnauba oil - Secreted by the leaves of a Brazilian palm tree, the wax protects skin by producing a continuous film that increases the durability of makeup.
• Jojoba oil - Calming and softening, this oil penetrates easily into the skin without trace of grease. It protects the lips against dehydration.

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
