BEST FOR SKIN TYPE
Normal to dry lips; ideal for cold climates or temporary barrier support.
PROS
• Squalane and pomegranate sterols deeply hydrate and support the barrier.
• Lightweight, non greasy texture with modern glide.
• Vegan and silicone free.
• Excellent for immediate moisture relief and winter protection.
CONS
• Contains petrolatum a petroleum-derived occlusive not aligned with Functional Beauty standards.
• Includes synthetic polymers that are non-biodegradable and non biocompatible.
• Not ideal for long-term use on highly sensitive or reactive skin.
FINAL VERDICT
Experiment Softwear is a smart, tech-inspired lip balm that combines modern texture innovation with classic emollient efficacy. It performs beautifully for short-term barrier repair and daily protection, but due to its inclusion of petrolatum and synthetic polymers, it falls short of full Functional Beauty approval for daily, long-term use. For a cleaner equivalent, Henné Luxury Lip Balm or Be Green Bath & Body Lip Balm would offer comparable nourishment with fully natural ingredients.

QUICK VERDICT:
Experiment Softwear provides effective short-term hydration and protection but its petrolatum and synthetic polymers limit long-term Functional Beauty suitability, with cleaner alternatives like Henné Luxury Lip Balm or Be Green Bath & Body Lip Balm recommended.
