Her lip to BEAUTY Launches Revolutionary “LIP TO LOVE SERUM”

Her lip to BEAUTY, the brand conceptualized by Haruna Kojima, is set to redefine lip care with the introduction of its highly anticipated “LIP TO LOVE SERUM.” This new beauty serum lip promises to deliver deep hydration, a luminous sheen, and powerful care effects, all in one elegant product. It will be available nationwide starting February 21, 2026.

Her lip to LIP TO LOVE SERUM

Make-Up Meets Skincare: Over 90% Beauty Ingredients

At the heart of “LIP TO LOVE SERUM” is its unique formulation, boasting over 90% beauty serum ingredients. This high concentration ensures that lips receive continuous nourishment while wearing the product, effectively blurring the lines between makeup and skincare. The serum features a high-adherence moisturizing formula, designed to keep lips feeling supple and looking vibrant throughout the day.

A key component is the “Rose Amide CPX,” a blend of Niacinamide, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, and Damask Rose Flower Extract (all moisturizing agents). This complex is specifically incorporated to enhance lip firmness and deliver a fresh, hydrated appearance.

Advanced Anti-Aging and Plumping Effects

Beyond basic hydration, the “LIP TO LOVE SERUM” is meticulously crafted for comprehensive lip care, including anti-aging benefits. It incorporates seven carefully selected plant-derived oils, such as Jojoba Seed Oil, Grape Seed Oil, Apricot Kernel Oil, Olive Fruit Oil, Macadamia Seed Oil, and Rosehip Fruit Oil, alongside Lactobacillus/Pear Juice Ferment Filtrate. These ingredients work synergistically to address multiple concerns like dryness, vertical lines, and dullness.

Age-appropriate care

The serum also employs a dual-pronged approach to create fuller, more voluminous lips. The “Rose Amide CPX” contributes to firmness and a dewy look, while two plumping agents (Vanillyl Butyl and Menthoxypropanediol) work to stimulate circulation through a gentle massaging effect upon application. This combination aims to deliver a pleasant plumping sensation, resulting in enhanced blood circulation and a visibly fuller, more vibrant pout.

Melty Essence Formula and Thoughtful Applicator

The “Melty Essence Formula” is designed to melt effortlessly upon contact with the lips, blending seamlessly with body temperature for a close, comfortable fit. A moist film component (Shea Butter Oil, (Acrylates/Stearyl Acrylate/Dimethicone) Copolymer) locks in the beauty serum ingredients, ensuring long-lasting moisture, a smooth texture, and vibrant color retention.

Complementing the luxurious formula is a custom-designed metal applicator. Its smooth, ergonomic shape glides perfectly along the contours of the lips, allowing for even product distribution while providing a soothing massage that supports overall lip health.

A Message from Haruna Kojima

Haruna Kojima, the visionary behind Her lip to, shares her personal connection to this new creation:

“The name Her lip to, and even the iconic imagery, show how symbolic ‘lips’ are to me. Because they are such a crucial part of our impression, when your lip makeup is perfect, you feel more confident, don’t you? On the other hand, lips are very delicate with thin skin. I’ve truly felt how they can get rough from dryness, lose plumpness, and show signs of aging. That’s why lip serum care is an indispensable part of my routine. ‘I want to achieve both ‘glamorous’ and ‘anti-aging care’ simultaneously’—this ideal led to the completion of ‘LIP TO LOVE SERUM.’ It doesn’t just moisturize; it supports firmness and transparency, all with a comfortable application. Please try this confident creation, packed with all my desires.”
