Carmex.

Eucerin Aquaphor Soothing Skin Balm applied at night is AMAZING though.
Used to have to put lip balm on a lot through the day but now I'm using this at night before bed my lips are so soft and smooth in the morning and I don't need to use as much lip balm during the day.

Vaseline cocoa butter or aloe vera.

Carmex is very nice too, but doesn't beat vaseline!

I really like the Burt's Bees ones, they make your lips slightly tingly (which i like) but they don't 'smother' your lips like vaseline sometimes does. They last a long time, and they do tinted ones in lots of colours now too

You can get them in Boots, and I've seen them in Fenwicks too.

Palmer's cocoa butter lip butter.

Vaseline is the one and only! Now available in several smells/flavours. But unfortunately I have become addicted and now cannot do without lip balm (seriously).

I LOVE trying new lip balms, but I always come back to Nivea Essentials; the dark blue one. Though I do also like the Blistex range.

[yennibubs]

carmex really does the job. it gives a nice little tingle too

[lelikins]

I like the body shop ones but have also stopped using them during the day because they make your lips go white
I like lush ones too but atm i'm using a honey one from chain bridge honey farm (can buy them in shops in northumbria - near berwick upon tweed).
I also like burts bees!

Personally the best one I've found is the blue Nivea one. It's so soft and really moisturises your lips.

Hi im looking for a really good lip balm that stays on your lips and doesnt rub away after like 2 mins :/ any suggestions ?


im currently using the body collection chap stick and its not bad but the flavours not nice lol ?

any help would be appreciated

Depends on your budget.

If you want cheap, Vaseline is the best shout. Also, there's a lovely Balance Me lipsalve free with this month's £2 Glamour Mag, it's worth £12 itself. There are 4 products to choose from tho so you may have to dig around at the newsagents to find the lipsalve. If you like Rose scents/flavours, you're onto a winner. It's lovely, nice and conditioning, very smooth, reasonable staying power.

Not tried Burt's Bees but everyone's raving, probably a good mid-price option.

If you're up for splashing out a little more, I'd SO recommend Nuxe Reve de Miel lip balm for dry and chapped lips. You can get this from Marks and Spencer's online beauty store, or from the M&S at Westfield Stratford if convenient. It's £9.50, but it's LUSH. Beautiful smell, think honey and lemon, but in a delicious pudding way as opposed to a Beechams way. very natural, not at all synthetic. It's really thick, almost a tiny bit grainy, but this gives it some serious staying power. if you put it on before bed you'll still feel conditioned in the morning. This is a great one to use overnight to do some real conditioning or use sparingly as a nice lip primer. They also do some cheaper, lighter versions in a stick form. Could also try Perlier, an Italian brand, again available from M&S's new beauty section, who also use honey in their products and they are equally as yummy.

Yeah, I like lip balms..

I see, thanks guys!!

I've always used Blistex, Carmex is good too though!

I always use the body shop hemp one. I don't really like the flavour but I find that most lip balms dry my lips even more so I have to keep re-applying and it is one of the only ones that doesn't.

[Disenchanted]

Where's everyone buying Carmex from? I swear I've never seen it in a shop before! I don't have a favourite lip balm brand, I'm currently using a blistex one. Actually thinking about it, the Burt's bees lipwax(?) is AMAZING, it is incredibly minty and so addictive I reapply it ten times an hour :P

[kpwxx]

I really like body shop, flavours are great and work really well for me
