Lip Balm
Lip balms, lip oils, and serums, oh my! If your lips are in need of protection and hydration, there’s certainly plenty of products to consider. If the world of lip care has you feeling lost, here are a few things to remember that will make your choice easier.
Lip balm: The best of both worlds
The perfect blend of colour and moisture, lip balms hydrate while giving you a colour boost. Perfect to pop into your makeup bag, or even your everyday handbag, a great lip balm will be your best companion.
When do our lips need more hydration?
Do you spend a lot of time in the elements or in air conditioning? There are lots of factors that can cause your lips to dry and need some extra love, in addition to your usual beauty routine. Lip balm—also known as lip cream—helps protect your lips with their moisturising properties, keeping them lush and soft.
How do lip balms work?
Lip balms lock hydration in by preventing water loss, while also adding hydration via moisturising agents like petroleum jelly, shea butter, or lanolin. Some also include an SPF to help protect against the sun’s UV rays. Even if you don’t struggle with dry lips, lip balms can offer a hydrating layer underneath other products, such as lipstick. Look for balms with added SPF to help protect them from the sun.
Lip creams are intended to be even more intensely moisturising than lip balms, and if you need deeper hydration, try overnight conditioners and repairing creams for extra luscious lips.
Are lip balms the same as lip oils?
While they may seem similar, lip balms do differ from lip oils. Lip oils are made from highly concentrated plant oils and deliver nutrients to your lips to repair, condition and protect. They can be a soothing choice if your lips are chapped and work well if you want to try something less waxy than a balm.
After a deeper colour?
If you want to add more subtle colour, while benefiting from extra hydration, go for a tinted lip balm. These dual action formulas will provide a glow that can be a great option for a more natural makeup look.
Our lips are as unique as our fingerprints which means they all need different types of care. Fortunately, there is a wide range of solutions available, no matter what treatment your lips need to keep them healthy and protected. If you struggle with chapped lips or you’re looking to give your lips a hydration boost lip balms, tints, oils and creams are all there to help you make them look and feel their best.
