What is a great long lasting moisturizing lip balm?

And im not talking bout chapsticks and other cheap glossy pretty ones. I need a good moisturizing balm, creme etc., specifically to nurture sensitive lips. Is there such a thing? What brands etc and pro/cons please? I dont mind if its pricey. thanks guys!What is a great long lasting moisturizing lip balm?
Vaseline is bleached petroleum. Not exactly chemicals I want on my mouth.





Most other products have chemicals with known health risks.





If you want the best, get some shea butter and jojoba.





Mix the two together in a tiny container.





Shea is incredibly nourishing. Unlike petro-chems, your body can use and process the nutrients in this incredible oil.





Jojoba is a humectant, meaning that it draws moisture to the top layers of your skin - perfect to control chapped lips. Again, any nutrients that are dermally absorbed are good for your body.What is a great long lasting moisturizing lip balm?
softlips from boots or vaseline r the best 2 u'l find!
Before bedtime, I use Burt's Bees Honey Lip Balm, and my lips are very soft . But many people swear by plain ole Vaseline.
'Maybelline' have a balm that is in a grey tube and that is very good for your lips. it also adds a bit of shine.
Burts Bee's is great. Also has other stuff for hands, etc. Works awesome.
vaseline is still the best out there
I prefer carmex lip balm, blistex, or chapstick but it can contain campher, which can dry lips. Try to avoid ingrediants such as sterols, alcohols, campher, and glycerol. I have used the cheap chapstick and its okay, but I dont like the flavor. I dont like the medicine tasting kinds, but sometimes they work better. For the price, I think chapstick is the best buy. But carmex doesnt cost much more.
Bees wax ! It is rather hard so warm it a little bit first. You can also add a drop of your fav flavoring, vanilla, mint, buttered rum (my fav) ,cinnamon etc...
try Cortizone, that's the stuff you put on your skin for itches, etc....my old fashioned doc told me about it...works much better....although you have to rub it in very well, so you don't have white lips...lol..but it is the greatest thing for lips....
Vaseline is great, but if you can't stand the taste and thickness there is no point. I don't know if you can use Bag Balm on your lips, but it is amazing-- (originally used for cow teats). Have you tried good old Blistex--I find those the best.
Avoid anything with petroleum as the first ingredient (i.e. Vaseline). It forms a barrier but doesn't actually moisturize.





Look for lip balms with natural moisturizers that can be absorbed. Shea butter, cocoa butter, aloe, almond oil, coconut oil, etc. are great ingredients. If possible, test he balm before you try it -- thicker balms will stay on longer. Anything too greasy may work great but probably won't ask as long.





In specifics, I agree that Burts Bees is a great choice. They offer lip balms both with and without color. :)
There is a product by Beauticontrol that works great. It is called LipApeel. Check out their web site.
Blistex is great for sensitive lips. If you need to, you can get the medicated one. It feels cool when it goes on and it's more of a creme.

Good luck!
Carmex is the best thing I've tried for chap lips. It does not taste very good, but it works awesome and it only cost about $1
BURT'S BEES. I swear by this stuff. it's about 4$ a tube and it is absolutely fantastic. It comes in plain (beeswax flavor that smells a bit like peppermint), honey, pomergranite, and more. It mousiturizes and also helps when your lips are already chapped. It doesnt feel sticky or gross and you dont have to reapply often
my Friend got me soft lips it works great they have it at walmart!!
Vaseline is by far the best





Really cheap, great quality and comes either in a huge tub for 99p or a lil handysized tin for like 50p =]





Or theirs a coconut butter not sure what its called tho =[ Really sorry =[
Have you tried Burt's Bee's? It's an all natural product and I'm pretty sure they have a website. The stuff is great! They have shampoos and soaps and all kinds of beauty products. I do like their lipsticks and balms though.

Do you think it would be dermatologically beneficial to use olive oil as lip balm?

i just realized it looks good, so i was wondering, lol.Do you think it would be dermatologically beneficial to use olive oil as lip balm?
Definately. Olive oil is a VERY natural moisturizer. It's better than using lip balm because it doesn't have any chemicals in it. Olive oil is great for moisturizing hair and skin, so you can use it on the lips too.Do you think it would be dermatologically beneficial to use olive oil as lip balm?
well it would porabbaly mositurize ur lis really well but i think it would be odd to wear olive oil coz it probably wont stay on for long ul porbably need to reapply it but it should be good for ur lips since its all natural
I think so yep.


It's a natural moisturizer


Is not a bit runny on it's own?


Try mixing it up with some other lip balm.

Do you think parents will want to buy lip balm for their toddler girl?

Do you think parents will want to buy lip balm for their toddler girl if it were geared toward their age group?Do you think parents will want to buy lip balm for their toddler girl?
You can buy lip balm for her :)





Like the smacker kind with the flavors or some thing :)


Just show her what to do and the no no's but it woudn't do


anything to her :)





Give her a little purse to put it in too.!!





lolDo you think parents will want to buy lip balm for their toddler girl?
The only reason why I would want to use lip balm on my 22-m-o daughter is if she were to have chapped/dry lips. I would not be interested in something that is marketed to the cosmetic area, i.e., Lip Smackers or something ';make-up-y';. I'm quite hoping my daughter won't show intereest in makeup until she is at least 13. (However, since daughters often take cues from their mothers, she may not get much interest in makeup. I hardly wear it myself, and when I do, it's just foundation.)
toddlers can use lip balm... my daughter uses '; lip stick'; all the time... if this is something you're thinking of making to produce.. then no.. I wouldn't buy my daughter special lip balm just for her to waste it and make a mess.. most of the lip balms they make now are ok for occasional use at any age
I highly recommend this ...

Hope this help :) Good Luck!
Only if she were being entered in pageants. Otherwise,such is not necessary.
You already can..well in the UK you can..there are a number of brands aimed at toddlers and little girls...
we use it on our 3year old when she has chapped lips or cold sores. although she likes to put it on anyways.

Can lip balm with vitamin C cause cavities?

Sometimes I can taste a bit of a citrus-y-ness after I put on lip balm with vitamin c. Also a lot of lip balms are made with bees wax, does that contain sugar?Can lip balm with vitamin C cause cavities?
No :) Don't worry. That doesn't make sense :) Its not enough sugar to cause cavities. You would need to be more directly exposed to sugar. Don't worry and keep hydrating your lips.Can lip balm with vitamin C cause cavities?
No. lol.
no. you put lip balm on your lips
No, not at all :)
of course not! it won't cause a cavity...

What is the best lip balm with SPF and a tint?

I would prefer for it to be in Walmart, Ulta, Bath and Body Works, Target, or any similar stores.

Blistex Silk%26amp;Shine at Walgreens.

  • What is the best lip balm/chap stick for chapped lips?

    Something I can purchase at the nearest Walgreens, Walmart, CVS, places like that..





    Thanks in advance!What is the best lip balm/chap stick for chapped lips?
    Burt's Bees MEDICATED Lip Balm healed my chapped lips overnight. But then again, they weren't that chapped. It's about 4 dollars and you can find it at target. It feels so cool and minty and icy on your lips.What is the best lip balm/chap stick for chapped lips?
    Burt's Bees is definatly the best choice. Get the regular honey one because, oddly enough, it's not as sticky as the pomegranite one. It's usually somewhere around 4 bucks a tube at CVS.
    carmex of burts bees wax


    hope your lips feel better soon!
    Carmex or something with medicine in it.


    Chap-stick is a 'preventative' %26amp; protective lip product. THey don't have medication in them, as a rule, but...


    They do make Medicated Chap-Stick, too.


    Blistek makes them, any with medication for sore, chapped lips should do.


    Blistek's are better smelling, imo.
    SOFTLIPS (really the name of the brand)!!! I know it's sold at CVS and probably Walgreens. It's like $2 and it makes your lips feel amazing and it comes in vanilla and raspberry. I use the raspberry and my bf loves it, so do I!
    vaseline or any petroleum jelly (they have pharmacy generic brands too. is cheaper, lasts much longer, and has many other uses. i always keep a small jar in my purse. you never know when you're going to need it.
    My favorite is Blistex Complete Moisture. It's the blue tube and I get it at WalMart for about $1.96. It goes on really smooth, has a pleasant flavor, and keeps my lips moist longer than standard chapstick or gloss. I swear by this stuff and always have at least 1 tube within reach :-D Hope you find what works best for you!
    Colorworks lip gloss, Maybelline lip tints, Blistex.
    burts bees! all the way
    Vaseline lip treatment...its in a small tube...i have very sensitive lips...i pretty much tried all the brands you can find...i talked to my doctor and my doctor told me to try vaseline brand
    burts bees is the best. it is medicted too
    THE best is DCT in the little yellow tubs, or carmex in the blue tubs. It is medicated and works great. Yeah, you can get it about anyplace like cvs or something for a couple of bucks.


    The tubs have a screw top lid, they are like small cannisters, or you can ask the pharmacist. Works better than beeswax
    Burts Bees..
    I use Burts Bees. Its great stuff.
    The best possible thing for chapped lips is to drink plenty of water so that your body can hydrate itself. Other than that, almost any lip balm will work, just stay away from ones with salycylic acid.
    burt bee's
    I like blistex with extra moisture like lip infusion. I also use vaseline for dry lips,cherry flavor. Anything with lots of moisture will work. You need extra moisture in the winter.
    try some lip butter form the body shop it works great =)
    Alba Coconut-Walgreens


    Burts Bee's Honey Balm-Walgreens
    Blistex Silk %26amp; Smooth- it is a glittery gray tube and it is in the isle where medicines are.

    Body Shop Vitamin E and SPF 15 lip care!
    Burts Bees or Valseline wrk best.


    You can get either of hem at a drugstore like Walgreens for $2.
    Burts Bees is the best. A make-up artist in LA recommended it to me and it's been a life saver!!
    Get Chapstick or Blistex the most popular brand and it available in K-Mart even the quickie marts have it...! Should not cost more than two bux
    Vaseline is good not only for lips but can soothe dry skin also. I use Vaseline and find it effective.
    Believe it or not, my lips used to get wicked chapped and then I started putting Bag Balm on them, they are soft now.....check it out, works for me..........
    Juice ';badizzle'; that is
    Blistex medicated lip ointment
    the best thing right now on the market for chapped lips is called aquafour.
    Carmex is great and also really cheap you get it at walmart walgreens or and drug store even dollar stores have it





    Pure petroleum works great to and you can get it any where and its cheap as well it last a long time and makes my lips shiny
