- Tocopheryl Acetate named fourteenth on the manufacturer list printed on this page

## How it works

The Ginger Sugar Lip Balm Stick is a 3.7g balm, used as the final layer of the evening routine, over your usual moisturizer. The antioxidant it is built around is Tocopheryl Acetate, named fourteenth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Zingiber Officinale (Ginger) Root Extract, Paraffin and Synthetic Wax, so the antioxidant is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Tocopheryl Acetate stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the balm format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the balm ETUDE sells in Korea, Tocopheryl Acetate and all.

## How to use

1. Apply after your serum or ampoule, once those have absorbed.
2. Take a small amount of balm and warm it between the fingertips.
3. Spread evenly over the face and neck in upward, outward motions.
4. Let it settle for a minute before applying sunscreen or makeup, rather than skipping straight to the next product.

## FAQ

### Where does this balm go in my routine?

As the final layer of the evening routine, over your usual moisturizer. Anything thinner than a balm goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Tocopheryl Acetate and not three changes at once.

### Is this the Korean-market balm or a US version?

The Korean-market one, Tocopheryl Acetate and all. We match this balm to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.

### Does this balm contain fragrance?

Yes. The ingredient list names Citral, Geraniol, Limonene and Linalool. They sit on the panel printed on this page, so you can read the position for yourself before you buy. If fragrance components are something you avoid, this balm is not the one.

### What else is on the list besides Tocopheryl Acetate?

Zingiber Officinale (Ginger) Root Extract, Paraffin and Synthetic Wax. The order they are printed in on this balm's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Tocopheryl Acetate sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Ozokerite, Squalane and Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2.
