Description

Mentholatum Deep Moist Medicated Lip Balm is a quasi-drug (医薬部外品) lip treatment that goes beyond basic moisture to actively prevent and repair lip chapping and dryness. The Japan-domestic formula combines three premium moisture-binding ingredients — hyaluronic acid, shea butter, and jojoba oil — with an active pharmaceutical ingredient (vitamin E derivative) to treat roughness and restore a soft, healthy lip surface. SPF20/PA+ UV protection is included.

The Vitamin E Derivative (dl-Alpha Tocopherol Acetate) is the key active ingredient that elevates this beyond a standard lip cosmetic. As a registered quasi-drug active, it works to prevent lip chapping and cracking at the cellular level, making this a particularly strong choice for lips that are persistently rough or prone to peeling. The oval-shaped container is engineered to reach the corners of the lips easily.

Available in an unscented variant — practical for daily use, safe under or over other products, and comfortable in any season.

Key Ingredients

  • Vitamin E Derivative (dl-Alpha Tocopherol Acetate) — quasi-drug active ingredient that prevents and repairs lip chapping and cracking
  • Hyaluronic Acid — binds water to the lip surface for immediate, lasting plumpness and softness
  • Shea Butter — rich emollient that seals in moisture and smooths rough, flaking texture
  • Jojoba Oil — lightweight conditioning oil that mimics the lip's natural sebum for non-greasy softness

HOW TO USE

  1. Apply 2–3 strokes to clean lips morning and night.
  2. Use the oval tip to reach the corners and edges of the lips for complete coverage.
  3. Reapply as needed throughout the day, especially after eating or drinking.
  4. Pro tip: for stubborn dry patches, apply a slightly heavier layer before bed and leave overnight to let the vitamin E derivative work while you sleep.

FAQ

What makes this different from a regular lip balm?

This is classified as a quasi-drug (医薬部外品) in Japan, which means it contains a registered active pharmaceutical ingredient — vitamin E derivative — specifically approved to treat lip chapping and cracking, not just moisturise. That distinction matters for people with persistently rough lips.

Is it suitable for sensitive lips?

Yes. The formula is fragrance-free and menthol-free, which makes it well-suited for people who find tingling or scented lip products irritating. It has no cooling sensation.

Can I use this as a makeup base?

Yes. The colourless, non-greasy finish means it works well under tinted lip products. Allow it to absorb for 1–2 minutes before applying lip colour for best adhesion.

Is this the Japan-domestic version?

Yes. This is the Japan-domestic quasi-drug formula sourced from Matsumotokiyoshi and Kokumin drugstores in Tokyo. TokyoShelf stocks only Japan-domestic formulas — not export versions.
