Lip Balm Recommendations 👄

This will sound odd but lansinoh nipple balm is the best thing I’ve used for cracked lips. You can buy it in Boots for around £6 fir a small tube.
It contains lanolin so don’t try if if you’re allergic

Literally just coming on to say that. Whenever I put some on to feed my babies I put a bit on my lips too and any other other dry areas

Good ol’ Vaseline.

Lanolips is amazing

I third the lansinoh nipple cream. Use it more on my lips than nips it’s super thick and a little goes a long way.

Highly recommend the little tin of pure 100% shea butter from L'Occitane! I think it's £8 but nothing else moistures quite like it. I use it on dry patches on my nose and hands too throughout winter. Lovely stuff

Get a lip scrub and overnight lip mask.... the lush lip scrubs are lovely! And not too pricey. Revolution do a overnight lio mask for £5.00. If you want something higher end, laniege lip mask Or Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream is unreal for chapped lips. The one in the tube Would last forever too xxxxx

One thing I read is if you use lip balm too often you actually dry your skin out and so you end up needing it more!

Lemonaid Lanolips x 10000000000

honestly it’s amazing. Don’t own any other lip balms now. If you have dry cracked lips it genuinely sorts them out within a day

Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream - magic!

I got a free sample of Dermologica Age Lip Smart and it's really helped my lips. Thinking about purchasing the full size.

It‘s expensive for a balm, but i SWEAR on the glossier balm dotcom. It’s not a lip balm as such, you can use it on most areas of the body, so maybe that’s why? (also heard, like a PP, that lip balms actually dry the lips out - I can see it! Ran out of my glossier balm so switched to carmex and I swear my lips go dry and peel more now than they did when I was using the glossier!)

I used to have chapped lips but no longer. I saw a video by Charlotte Parler on her tik tok. Moisten your lips with water, then use a moisturizer on lips (glaze it like a donut ha) and then put on a thick balm like La Neige lip mask, aquaphor, etc. Lips don’t have sebaceous glands.

Good luck!

I like eos - little sphere shaped pots, you can get them in boots/Superdrug for about £5ea but my local home bargains sells them
For £2ish, prefer the lighter scented/coconut ones to the heavier fragrances (ie summer berries)

 

[vanillaswirl]

Palmers lip balm is the only thing to work for me.

 

[whatsfortea?]

I was on accutane and the only thing that got me through was Eucerin Aquaphor! juicy plump pain free lips

The Lemonaid Lanolips is also gorgeous

 

[Shineyshine]

I’ll second Aquaphor, you can get a huge 45g tube for around £6 will last forever.

I have chronic dry, flaky and sore lips and I must have spent £££ over the years trying to find a lip balm which sorts it out all!

I’ve tried Carmex/Blistex but the medicated ones seem to irritate my lips. I also think anything with beeswax in it triggers a reaction so Burts Bees is a no go! I’m currently using Weleda Skin Food Lip Balm which is nice for about 30 minutes but then the dryness comes back!

I drink lots of water throughout the day so I don’t think I’m de-hydrated. I’ve thought about going to my GP as this is something I’ve had all my life but I doubt I’ll get seen this year with it!

Any tips/lip balm advice welcome!

This is the only thing I use on my lips. It's amazing. I would recommend it to anyone and everyone.

I love dr paw paw but when my lips are really dry and sore I put honey on them and leave it to soak in then gently rub off the dead skin with a flannel/ damp towel.
