ia nivea is dry for me too i like my classic lip ice ... also last year my little niece gave me a frozen lipstick she got in a birthday surprise and it was actually pretty great lol
Neutrogena Norwegian Formula with the sunscreen is my go-to for the daytime! Overnight, I do a generous coating of Rosebud Salve. This combo really keeps my lips in good shape, barring windy/dry days
I love the Fresh lip balms too but they're so freaking expensive
Actually...my parents are in LA and I'm visiting memorial weekend hahahah. But yeah cool!! I just went to Korea but can never get enough stuff there :)
carmex will always be my light and savior 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 but it has to be the little tub one, not the tube (for some reason that's the only one that works for my full lips)
i am trying to incorporate more gloss in my life (especially since summer is about a month away), so lately my routine has been carmex/lip gloss or carmex/lip tint or lip pencil/lip gloss
typical Vaseline (rose) is the best for me,. I was using EOS for a while bc it was cute as heck, but that tended to dry me out faster and I was constantly applying lipbalm all the time, so I was nhf that.
It's the same for me about EOS, it's actually not that great I just like it for the novelty haha And because they came out with a coconut scented one, I just live for coconut anything.
I loved the shape, i loved the taste (especially the berry and strawberry ones), but it was just. so bad for my lip health, so i gave up on them T____T
but urgh. i love coconut everything as well. i'm tempted to buy it, just to try it for a little while. for the novelty. oh no.
Carmex? Eh. Chapstick, Nivea, Blistex, Burt's Bees, EOS, Mini Vaseline's all give me a rash on my upper lip. And since Shea Moisture is cancelled, their lip balm is out (and doesn't do anything at all either, tbh).
i used to use that swedish military hudsalva thing that my mom loves, that was okay. for the past few years i just use mango butter or any random oil i have at hand.... mango butter is my fave.
too much effort~~~ besides most of the time i put on lipstick right before i arrive at my destination and by then i forgot that i have a whole routine for the lips so...
Has anyone tried the white nivea balm? The one that has sunscreen in it? My sister used to have the strawberry shine thing that ikon advertises but its not moist enough so she bought the blue one. I hate the texture but the white one is pretty okay for me
I use Nivea Fruit Shine Cherry and Maybelline Baby Lips in Chai Tea Latte to add a hint of color to my lips when I don't feel like using lipstick. The Nivea one is a bit drying so I don't use it that much, the other one is okay but it's very pigmented for a lip balm. I also have the Nivea Essential Care (the dark blue) for when my lips are dry but ngl the best lip balm I ever had was one from Avon around 5 years ago - inexpensive and did the job quite well.
Christian Dior's creme de rose lip balm when I'm at home and before I go to sleep at night. Blistex medicated mint lip balm w/spf 15 when I have to be outside. My lips are really sensitive to most lip products and are really prone to peeling.
Green Apple Hydrating Chapstick brand. It's the only one I can find that doesn't have that tocopherol shit in it (which I'm super allergic to). Even Chapstick's other flavors in the hydration line all have tocopherol except the green apple LOL. For years I had no idea why so many lip balms made my lips more chapped and now that I know what ingredient to avoid, I have basically no options.
