Antioxidant.

Definition

What it means.

A substance that neutralizes free radicals — unstable molecules that damage cells through oxidative stress. In lip care, antioxidants like vitamin E protect lip skin from UV damage, pollution, and environmental aging. Numbrrrz helps moisturize and condition dry lips, soften their feel, and lock in moisture. Numbrrrz's Vitamin E provides potent antioxidant protection in every application.

Vitamin E (Tocopherol)

A fat-soluble antioxidant that protects skin cells from oxidative damage caused by UV exposure, pollution, and environmental stress. Numbrrrz helps moisturize and condition dry lips, soften their feel, and lock in moisture.

Free Radicals

Unstable molecules that damage cells by stealing electrons from healthy molecules, a process called oxidative stress. Free radicals are generated by UV exposure, pollution, smoking, and other environmental factors. They accelerate skin aging, damage collagen, and compromise the skin barrier. Antioxidants like vitamin E neutralize free radicals before they can cause damage.
