During the colder Winter months, your lips need as much moisturisation and protection as possible. These are my top 3 favourite products to do just that.
In no particular order... firstly we have the new Limited Edition Creme Brulee Vaseline. These are available in Selfridges and Sainsburys, maybe other supermarkets also, though I'm not sure!
As we are all aware, Vaseline doesn't moisturise the lips, but it forms a protective layer to keep out the cold and wind, which is vital to keeping them in tip top condition. This variety also smells pretty good!
I paid £1.99 at Sainsburys, but it is £2.99 at Selfridges.
Secondly is the 'MOR' Lip Delight Lip Balm, mine is in the passion fruit variety, but they do plenty of different ones, including orange and apple.
This balm moisturises the lips and sinks in pretty quickly, this too smells amazing, important if you ask me considering your lips are right under your nose! It's completely non sticky, a definite bonus.
Mine is in the old-style tin, but the new one is available at Space NK for £11.50
Finally is the Yankee Candle flavoured Lip Balm in Pomegranate, the great thing about this one is that it is tinted and it also contains SPF 15, great for bright winter days, as you actually still need to use an SPF in winter!
The only negative about this, and this may be a personal preference, but I find it smells and tastes slightly waxy, which isn't a huge issue, but I'd prefer it if it didn't!
I bought this from a yankee candle store for around $5, but I have seen it online for around £4, you just need to shop around a little!
I hope someone found this useful, and if you've tried any of these, let me know what you think!
I hope you're all enjoying the festivities!
I have a lipbalm by MOR which I really like, think it's Lychee. I'd like to try the Creme Brûlée Vaseline too.
