nobody wants to kiss dry lips !
18:40I have always had a problem with dry skin and dry lips. The dry skin part wasn't that big of a deal. I mean, it is annoying and I do have to apply lotion and cream more often then the regular person does but it really isn't that big of a hassle. Dry lips however, is the bigger problem.
If you naturally have lips that are prone to chapping and dryness, you would already know what I'm about to tell you, but for those who are blessed .. let me tell you why it sucks to have super dry lips.
1. They are constantly cracking. Just smiling, yawning, or even just opening my mouth a little too wide when I am taking a bite of my burger. BAM cracks and bleeds. NOT PLEASANT.
2. They're flaky. The dead skin sometimes peel upwards, and it is extremely tempting to just peel off. but if you peel it, no matter how lightly and carefully you do it, you always end up ripping off a whole chunk of skin. PAINFUL.
3. Can't wear lipstick. the colour will sink into the cracks and look absolutely horrible. YUCK.
4. NOBODY WANTS TO KISS A PAIR OF DRY AND CRACKED LIPS.
It took me forever and a day to try and find some good lip balms that work for me, so if anyone else has extremely chapped lips and is looking for lip balm that doesn't just smell good but also get's the job done, maybe these can get you started.
I know that what works for me, might not work for everyone, but maybe this could give you an idea on where to start looking !
So here it is, my list of moisturizing lip products that works ! (For me)
1. Blistex Natural Cooling Comforts: I actually was introduced to this by my boyfriend surprisingly. He took my Burt's Bees lip balm once cause he liked it and he said I could have his lip balm instead. It turned out to be this, and I ended up loving it ! It moisturizes well, it soothes my dry lips, easy to apply, and it even makes a good base for my lipsticks. However, what I noticed about this product is that it does fade away quickly and needs to be reapplied quite often. A lot of people also complain about the texture and consistency of this product and say that it is not comparable to the other Blistex products which have a thicker, waxier consistency, but I actually prefer this lighter consistency much more. Some people also say that this lipbalm gives a gritty feeling sometimes, but I have never experienced grittiness with this product. Overall, I really do like this and it just works for me. I do have to reapply it quite a bit but like with my lotions , I really don't mind that much. $1.99 @ most drugstores
