Lip balm ladies need your help!

Ok so I am not a lipstick girl-prefer glosses but my lips tend to chap and some lipglosses seem to make it worse-like they are drying. They are sooo chapped right now-I look like a fever victim

Can anyone suggest a good hydrating lip blam and or lipgloss?
TIA

Sorry about your chapped lips....i know how bad it can suck!
I like Burts Beeswax! It works great.

Re: Lip balm ladies need your help!

I like Burt's Bees or Blistex (in the blue little jar) for my dry lips

I also like to use Philosophy Mint lip gloss, and C.O. Bigelow Mint lip gloss.

Victoria's Secret's lip glosses are pretty good too

I use this all the time too, even when my lips aren't chapped! I use it to prevent the chapping!

I second that! What I tend to use lately is burts bee's lip balm with lipstick on top of it..... it stays on a bit better than the shimmer, and it keeps my lips from being chapped....

When my lips get really chapped & start cracking, I use Aquaphor. It seriously heals the cracks right away.

Softlips...the uv one, you can put that on under lip gloss and it makes the lip gloss not so sticky so it wont dry out your lips

I will have to look for that-sold in drugstores? They're sooo bad. i mean I have HOLES in my lips where they peeled....so bad. I am using a Burt bees one right now-medicated with clove oil? First day so not sure how it will work but i like the tingling. Thanks again ladies.

Re: Lip balm ladies need your help!

I think it's in some larger drug stores. I know harmon cosmetics (one on rt 110 very close to northern state pkwy) stocks it.

If you feel like your lips are going to fall off, definitely use aquaphor! Use the balms once the worst is over with.... worked for me every time.

oh, by the way, it's NOT only a lip product, so it doesn't look like a chapstick.... it's more of a hybrid vaseline / potent moisturizer, and comes in a tube similar to a toothpaste tube. Look for it by the vaseline tubs

I just saw this product in a chap stick form but I can't remember where!!!! It was by the checkout so it had to be either Walmart or Target. I use the Burt's Beeswax. I love the tingly too.

Re: Lip balm ladies need your help!

I found that I was allergic to most lipsticks/glosses/balms. So what I thought was severe chapping was really an allergic reaction.

I found the only thing that worked was Avon's Care Deeply Aloe lipbalm...
