TKB Mineral Lip Base (M-Base)

TKB Mineral Lip Base (M-Base) is a clear, transparent gelled emollient base suitable for a wide range of cosmetic applications, including lip and skin products. M-Base creates a smooth, occlusive moisture barrier that helps protect and condition the lips and skin.

This base has a thicker, heavier texture than the Professional lip base (Versagel ME) and is best suited for formulas where a denser feel and strong barrier effect are desired. It can be used as is or customized with lip-safe colors and cosmetic additives. Vegan and cruelty-free.

Key Properties & Benefits

  hydration.
