Dry lips

Does anyone have any recommendations on lip products to help dry, cracking, tight lips please? I know it's a combination of needing to drink more and the heating.

Currently using PawPaw balm.

Thanks!

I love 8 hour cream for my lips in winter.

I feel like I’ve tried every lip balm out there - hated Lanolips (and Lansinoh on lips), Carmex and lots of others. Nuxe was OK but no better than Burt’s Bees, which is now my preferred balm. However, as a PP has mentioned, it’s really only drinking enough water that sorts out dry lips. I now use dry lips as an initial indicator that I haven’t drink enough water throughout the day.

Watch your toothpaste as well- if I use whitening/fancy schmancy toothpaste my lips virtually fall off.

That stuff is basically vaseline with a little bit of papaya extract tbh so I wouldn't waste money on it.

I had really dry lips this year so I was searching for a good lip balm. I got a pack of six lip balms from Amazon and they're fantastic and I'm very picky with my lip products. They're the Sky Organics Organic BeesWax Lip Balms. They're 100% organic and about a Tenner for a pack of 6. They're also much better than Burt's Bees in my opinion (they're too waxy) and they're cheaper if you're buying a few of them. Definitely recommend them (also same day delivery free delivery if you have Prime). Worth every penny.

I'm taking Roaccutane which gives you horrifically dry and cracked lips. The LRP one was specially developed for Roaccutane users and I agree it's good but the best is the O'keeffes lip repair. Applied regularly is the only thing that keeps my lips from splitting and peeling
