Lip balm addicts! What your best ever lip balm?

[njg616]

Clue is in the title really

No 7 hydraluminous lip balm for me. Because it's glossy and has enough tint to it.

Love to hear which lip balms you can't do without

I really want to to try this but it’s not cheap with the shipping.

Burts bees. Peppermint or vanilla. So good and keeps my lips moisturised for hours and hours.

i’m using the nuxe honey one. it’s expensive but i like it and it wears well under lipstick too, if you apply lipstick and mix it with your lips is what i do

Yep, the tiny little tube of Lansinoh nipple balm is the one I was coming on to say. I saw it recommended by a beauty editor and it really works. You only need a tiny bit and it actually moisturises your lips, unlike the petroleum based ones that dry them out. It’s odourless, tasteless and leaves a nice subtle shine.

For night I have a dupe of the Laneige one. I think it’s a Revolution one. That works well and my lips are much better this Winter with that on overnight.

I also used to love one by Fig and Rouge (I think that was what they’re called) which I got in Boots but no longer seems to be sold. It had no petroleum crap in, only natural things, and was in a lovely decorated little tin. It was a pleasure to use.

O’Keeffes lip repair balm. Ruddy marvellous stuff, I’ve tried loads of lip moisturisers and balm products, this is the only one I’ve found that really does have a longer lasting moisture effect and stops my lips getting chapped.

A hundred times cheaper, more natural and more effective than any mentioned above.

Just has no marketing so is not as popular.

Uriage lip balm. Bought it after I developed an allergy to absolutely everything. Repaired my lips and I don't react to it! It's great, tiny bit lasts all day and it's not greasy.

Blistex moisture at night though.

brilliant for todgers too 👌

I rarely use a true lipstick now as I love the tinted lip balms but use carmex or Shea butter at night and Nivea or lipsyl in handbag and car.
Of the tinted ones, my favourite colour is Mac tendertalk in play with me. I have EA 8 hour one in blush which is lovely. I have a CT one which I'm not impressed by the container- looks cheap and doesn't retract - but lovely colour. I like Nars orgasm one for shine and Dior for shine but not much colour to them. The Mac one in the brightly coloured tube I was hopeful of (it went mad due to TT when released) but it doesn't retract and I think the texture is awful.

Does the Hydraluminous colour stay on ?
@njg616
What colour do you have?

I love the Glossier one for texture and formulation but not the colours and I hate slidy balms that don't stay on .

Burts bees always

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask. Am wearing it now. I have a peach tea one next to my bed (limited edition), a pink lemonade one in my bag, a berry one in the kitchen, a lime/apple one in the car. I might have a problem! I love that it very, very gently exfoliates the dry skin overnight and your lips are plumptious and soft the next morning. Also lasts about 6-8hrs on me.

I’ve tried most and the best for me is the Nuxe honey in the pot. For some reason the stick version doesn’t do much. In fact the stick version of most things I’ve tried over the years don’t do much . I’m allergic to the Eight Hour Cream, Blistex and Calmex and lansinoh, paw paw didn’t help. The thing that’s made the most difference is realising toothpaste was causing the most problem and made my lips peel. I now use mild ones without SLS - generally Zendium or Biotene and that’s helped a lot.

Revolution Glaze Lip oil, got it from the Asos advent calender. Lovely Cherry Seed flavour too

Sorry that's a gloss!

Laneige lip sleep mask in berry but used as a day gloss / balm

Superdrug medicated, cheap and cheerful.

Burts bees love it!

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask at night (nicest flavour I've tried is the apple lime one) as it's intensely hydrating and also gently peels off any excess texture on my lips so i can exfoliate them easily in the morning.

Lanolips 101 Ointment during the day under lipstick. It applies beautifully, sinking into the lip but also clinging to it so it stays hydrating throughout its time of wear. It also makes my lips look a tiny bit plumped and really juicy so I don't mind wearing it on its own on no makeup days.

@Deadhead2024 I have loads of them, in every bag I have so I'm never without!! A small bit goes a long way. I can never taste it. The pot version is good as you can just run your finger lightly over it and put it on.

I can recommend this too, either the stick or the pot.
I also quite like Boots own brand one, in a blue tube, if you're after a cheaper one. I use that when my lips aren't too bad.
But the Nuxe one is the business for when they're worse.

Lush lip masks, currently using snow fairy, it really softens your lips

Badger Balm, either the unscented or vanilla

Original Vaseline. Never beaten.
