Lip balm addicts! What your best ever lip balm?

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

Another vote for Lanolips, its the best one imo but sometimes use carmex in a squeeze tube as it quick and easy when out

Rainbowshit · 07/01/2024 23:47

Blisteze. By far the best.

By Terry baume de rose. Without a doubt. Looks beautiful on

Weirdly I actually find lip balms dry out my lips. They're fine when I don't use anything.

Original Chapstick. I buy in bulk from Amazon. Been using for about 30 years and never found anything better!

Alloveragain3 · 08/01/2024 00:21

Damn it. I'm meant to not be buying unnecessary things in Jan and this thread has just made me purchase the Nuxe miel...

I'm a lip balm addict. Tried most lip balms going and my favourites are the standard dark blue nivea stick and nuxe honey balm. My favourite tinted balm is burt's bees in red dahlia.

HappyAsASandboy · 08/01/2024 00:53

Burts Bees Pomegranate. I don't like the original one as it is too hard and tastes of bees wax, but the Pomegranate one is soft, smooth and tastes good!

QueenBitch666 · 08/01/2024 01:22

Gayle Hayman Lip Lift. Tinted and plain

Rattenbury · 08/01/2024 02:28

Burts Bees in Pomegranate, though I still mourn the discontinuation of Benefit Benebalm.

I use fragrance free everything, including lip balms, and prefer natural. I usually have the unscented version of either Dr Bronners or Badger Balm, both in stick form. The Dr Bronners baby mild is my favourite.

I've been using the same small pot of vaseline for about 8 years. It's only running low because my toddler smeared it all over his face. Inspired to get a new one now!!

Tiredmummy2014 · 08/01/2024 09:29

I love L:A Bruket best one I've tried by far

I'm not a fan of vaseline anyway but omg 8 years!
Do you not feel that's very unhygienic ?
I prefer sticks for day time use for the same reason.
Throw it away and treat yourself to a new one! 😂

ithinkicanithinkican · 08/01/2024 11:05

Pot Carmex. Nothing else is as good.

tellstales · 08/01/2024 11:36

Vivacy Lip Protect. Absolutely brilliant.

MrsSwears2Much · 08/01/2024 11:41

@NipLash YES!! This was absolute favourite lip balm. I was gutted when it got discontinued 🙁! The stick is that lovely thin shape, and the scent was gorgeous.

It smelled amazing! I check eBay every so often, but haven't seen any for years now. Might have to give this Nuxe one a try.

Smallwood Bees honey and beeswax lip balm from Etsy

Okeefes is brilliant

Yeah, probably 🤣 it's not made me ill yet though! I've bought myself a nivea stick one today!

Rainbowshit · 08/01/2024 15:16

Those of you saying nuxe reve de miels, which one do you mean? There seem to be several different types in little pots and also a stick version.

Popcorndoggy · 08/01/2024 17:37

I swear by the Laniege sleep mask. I slather it on at night and during the day in smaller quantities. It has kept my lips soft and plump. The taste is not sickening like some lip balms are and it stays put for hours.

@Rainbowshit the clear glass pot with the dark brown lid.
