This is a lip balm built like a serum. Routine made it by taking their Night Face Serum base and pouring it into a jumbo twist-up stick, so the same botanical oils that treat a face also work on lips, hands, elbows, and knees. It hydrates on contact and leaves a light peppermint tingle behind, and one 40 g tube is sized to outlast the small tins most balms come in. If your lips and hands both dry out the moment the weather turns, this is the one stick that covers both. Why Choose the routine Botanic Serum Lip Balm? Serum-Grade Base: It's formulated using routine's Night Face Serum as its foundation, so the botanical oils are the same ones built for facial skincare, not a standard wax-and-oil balm. Multi-Use, One Stick: Lips, hands, elbows, knees, cuticles — anywhere skin gets dry — so one tube stands in for several separate products. Sized to Last: At 40 g, it's noticeably larger than a standard 4–5 g lip balm and gives routine's own estimate of about six months of regular use from a single tube. Rose-Scented, Naturally: The Rose variety is lightly scented with real rose oil from the ingredient list, not a synthetic fragrance stand-in. Filled Close to Home: Made in Canada and filled just 2 km from routine's Canadian Rockies headquarters, keeping production local to where the brand is based. Perfect For Multi-tasking minimalists who'd rather carry one stick than a lip balm, a hand cream, and an elbow balm Anyone whose lips, knuckles, and elbows all dry out at the same time each winter Outdoor adventurers who want one product for lips and hands during hiking, skiing, or travel Gift buyers looking for a Canadian-made, cruelty-free skincare item that isn't a single-use size Shoppers replacing several small balms and creams with one longer-lasting stick Product Specs Specification Details Scent Rose Size 40 g Packaging Twist-up tube Product Form Stick Skin Care Effect Anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, moisturizing, hydrating Country of Origin Canada FAQs What makes routine's Botanic Serum Lip Balm different from a regular lip balm? It's formulated using routine's Night Face Serum as its base, so it carries the same botanical oils built for facial skincare rather than a standard wax-and-oil balm. That's why routine markets it for lips, hands, elbows, and knees rather than lips alone. How long does one 40 g tube of lip balm typically last? Routine estimates about six months of regular daily use from a single 40 g tube, which is noticeably larger than a standard 4–5 g lip balm stick. Is there a tingling sensation when I use this balm? Yes — it contains peppermint oil, which gives a mild tingling sensation on contact. This is expected and not a sign of irritation. Can I use this lip balm anywhere besides my lips? Yes. Routine designed it to be applied to hands, elbows, and knees as well as lips, wherever skin needs intensive hydration. Where is this lip balm made? It's made in Canada and filled just 2 km from routine's headquarters in the Canadian Rockies.
