Can anyone recommend a suitable replacement for this. I’ve used it for years and finally my supplies have run out.
many thanks

Have they stopped it? Noooo

Sadly yes. Can find it for £10-£15 on eBay/vinted 😩

Superdrug vitamin e lip balm is nice for a cheap budget one, but the nuxe honey lip balm( in the pot) is lovely and lasts ages

I have the last tiny bit of mine! The other lip balms I use (I use a lot, I spend a lot of time outside).

Burt's Bees lip balm, I love the honey one, but they don't do a Vit E specific one. For Vit E, try Dr Organic Vit E lip balm from Holland and Barret.

Utterly ridiculous it was a key product

Try Palmers cocoa butter lip balm. I prefer the wind up one to the tube.

But bees also nice

I know this thread is old but I just wondered if you found a replacement OP? I'm nearly at the end of my last Vitamin E Body Shop one.

Hi @NinaGeiger no I didn’t. I ended up switching to carmex , the pot not the tube!

Thanks for answering.
I haven't got on the Carmex - it feels great when I put it on but later, like nearly all lipbalms, it makes my lips drier and sorer.
I have just started using a Burts Bees honey one that seems promising though!

I'm tempted to get really nerdy with a spreadsheet of all the ingredients of the Body Shop vitamin E one (RIP) to get to the bottom of why it's so good.

If you do the spreadsheet please can you share your findings 🤣
