I need a BRILLIANT lipsalve/balm.

[LovelyLips]

Every winter my lips suffer. I think partly it's some lipsticks too (Clinique with the primer seems an issue).

So far, I've tried Burts Bees (Honey), Ren, L'Occitaine, Nuxe, Lanowhatever it's called - and my lips are still dry and seem worse after using some of the above- they sting a bit after application.

I don't care if it costs £1 or £15 but I need help!

I want something I can buy online please (J Lewis) or supermarket, ideally. tinted would be good too.

Have you tried Lush Lip Service? It’s a strange consistency - you have to sort of scrape it out with the back of your nail or keep it warm in your pocket - but honestly one of the best I’ve ever tried. I was going to recommend Nuxe but I see you’ve tried that.

No I've not.

Nuxe is the honey one in a lipstick shape. Not a pot.

Clarins lip oil, the honey one... it will change your life

Lanolips or lanolin nipple balm for the same effect but cheaper.

There’s a Nadine Baggot video where she talks about lip balm which you should watch! It comes down to the fact that most lip balm makes your lips worse. I think she recommends a La Roche Posay one that is more of a cream than a balm as the best.

8 hour cream x

Palmer's cocoa butter lip balm. Available in many places, including supermarkets, not sticky, fast relief, lasts well in the stick and on the lips. Best ever and I've sampled many.

Elizabeth Arden 8hr balm is my go to for lips I have tubes of the stuff everywhere.

The nipple protector in the purple tube. Watched a video from a makeup artist who specialises in natural looks the other day and this was her favourite.

Okeefes lip rescue! Life saver !

The one by O’Keeffes is recommended over and over again on here, and was also recommended by my dermatologist when I was on Roaccutane which gives horrendous dry lips. I never tried it but if you do a search you will see all the glowing reviews. I think it’s in an orange tube?

Elizabeth Arden vote from me too.

Ps I have tried Eight Hour Cream and Lansinoh nipple cream and they are ok but nothing miraculous.

Blistex Intensive Moisturiser is the best I have tried.

Found on this very forum an actual miracle. My lips are fine now and it worked straight away. Okeefes lip rescue - overnight balm in a pot. About a fiver. I only use it at night because I don't really need it more often and over using lip balms makes your lips dry.

Unbelievably good snd I've tried them all included Ardens 8 hour & Dr Lipp.

Sorry missed your lano whatever reference. DD who struggles like you uses lanolin at night and the luxe pot in the daytime, it's the only thing that sorts oherwise dreadful chapping on and around her lips.

I will say Elizabeth Arden and dr lipp are the two runners up. Good but not amazing. Ditto lanolips. I've also used homeoplasmine and several other french ones. But okeefes was just so much better.

Nuxe Reve de Miel. The best ever. You can get a stick or a pot.
I’d go door to door selling this it’s that good.
Uriage is also good but not as brill as Nuxe.
I get mine from Escentual and they’ve got 1/3 off French Pharmacy which is where I get mine. I’m stocking up.

Glossier lip balm works well, contains lanolin as those described already.

I'm loving Molton Brown lip balm this year.

Nuxe in the pot. Not their stick, it's nowhere near as good as the stuff in the pot.

My 2nd favourite is LRP, not as rich as the pot Nuxe but the best stick balm I've used.

O Keefes

Carmex in a pot - it only costs a couple of pounds, smells good and works.

Nuxe in the pot. The stick was meh. And yes the LRP is probably my runner up too. Carmex makes my lips drier. Never heard of O'Keefe's - must look it up. Eve Lom Kiss Mix is very good too and has a glossy finish.
