My Favorite Lip Balm

One thing I always carry everywhere with me is my lip balm. My Skincare routine is incomplete without using lip balm. You should wear lip balm all day, all night and all seasons. Lip balm is for all whether you love skincare thing or you are a minimalist when it comes to beauty or skincare. Lip balm locks the moisture on your lips and helps to heal chapped lips, pigmented lips and some lip balms are with SPF so your lips are sun safe when going out in sun or in summer season.

So what a good lip balm consists of?

A good lip balm consists of beewax, it is a natural ingredient, coco butter, shea butter, petroleum jelly, sunscreen, and a mix of natural ingredients or oils to lock the moisture. There is wide variety of lip balms to choose from, tinted or non-tinted, with SPF or without, lip balm for pigmented lips or just to lock moisture, pocket friendly to high end.

Here is my favorite lip balms I can bet on for soft, motorizing lips. I love trying new lip balms. I like wearing tinted lip balm in day time for fresh look, it gives little tint to lips. While in night I use something which is non-tinted but of thick consistency and very moisturizing. I like using lip balm with SPF in summer days and good moisturizing one in winter. But you can choose one what works for you best. It’s not essential to have lots of lip balm, one good lip balm is all you need.

1. Neutrogena Lip Moisturizer with SPF 15

It is best for using when outdoors and in summer days. This balm can be worn in all seasons too. It really does the work and moisturize and soften the lips. It is one of the popular lip balms and pocket friendly.

2. Burt’s Bees

This is my recent purchase after seeing so many good reviews about this lip balm and I was like why haven’t I got it earlier! It is my recent favorite lip balm. The main ingredient in this balm is beewax. Burt’s bees uses all the natural ingredients and it moisturize the lips really well, best for chapped lips. Burt’s bees has tons of variety in lip balms to choose from. Tinted, non tinted, and of different flavors like honey, coconut & pear, pomegranate, strawberry, vanilla bean, mango, and lot more. My favorite is it’s classic one beewax lip balm with Vitamin E and peppermint and it is non-tinted. In tinted, my favorite is Rose. It is only available in Sephora or on amazon in India. It is expensive in India but if you travelling abroad you can get this in less than five dollars. I will be trying its different flavor in future as it’s worth investing on.

It is very pocket friendly. It also comes in tinted shades too, which are strawberry, cherry and watermelon.

5. Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask Berry

It is a lip sleeping mask but can be used as lip balm in day and sleeping mask at night. It is so moisturizing and has no tint and mild berry fragrance which I really like. It is best for chapped, very dry lips as it gently melt away dead skin cell and leave skin very moist and supple. The only problem with this is, it comes in a jar not in stick foam. I usually prefer stick as it is very convenient and easy to use without digging your fingers into the jar to get the product. But it work best in all season, all day and night. It comes in three different flavors beery, apple lime. and grapefruit.

6. Juicy Chemistry Blood Orange & Rosehip Organic Lip Balm – For Pigmented Lips

This lip balm contains plant oils and vitamin E. The blood orange stimulates blood circulation in the lips and helps promote even toned lips. It is pure organic lip balm that is why it’s shelf life is only six months. It has very mild citrus smell which I really like and it comes in mini glass jar which is very impressive. I am not fan of lip balm in jar but this lip balm has organic, natural ingredients that are so effective. It moisturize the lips so well and best for pigmented lips.
