(Part 3) Best lip balms & moisturizers according to redditors

http://www.amazon.com/Rosebud-Salve-Perfume-Company-0-5/dp/B002VF4MVK

I treat mine by this:
1 Drink more water
2 Laneige lip mask
3 Lanolin, I prefer the lanolish brand but also own it in chapstick form, but I have to keep it in the fridge and can only apply it by dabbing it on, since I live in Houston. It doesn't always help because I also have a horrible habit of picking at my lips. It's an idle hands thing, I don't even realize I'm doing it.

Medical Grade Lanolin Skin and Lip Balm Green Label (4) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N9DHVC6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_DVh6BbW2XKN48

I rely on 2 items, but they are more in balm form than stick form, not sure if that matters to you...

smiths rosebud salve which you can get at Sephora, is petroleum based like vaseline.

dr lipp nipple balm for lips also available from birchbox. this is 100% medical grade lanolin. This can rescue the most dire of dry lips.

Both of these LIVE in my purse.

Burt's bees is pretty solid, but consider checking out dermatone

Edit:link

why stop there we must go deeper

/sings ~~NIVEAAaAaAaa~~
Their lip butters in the tins are great, but for my purse I keep this, or aquaphor also makes one that's specifically for lips that's also awesome. they're not quite AB, but i haven't found anything better.

I have used this stuff for years. It was recommended to me by an aesthetician who said my chapstick addiction was bad for my skin.

thanks! I think it is actually the same product as this which lists all the ingredients if anyone is interested https://www.amazon.com/Dermatone-Medicated-Balm-0-15-Ounce-Count/dp/B00N2RS6SG

I use the one with vitamin E and peppermint oil. I usually just pick it up at Walmart or CVS or something.

I'm addicted to lip balms! This is the one I use at night and enjoy it.

I also have repurchased the balms from Maple Holistics, and a repurchase is rare for me!

My total is $18.27.

$4.00 Lip balm ($4 + free shipping)

$4.00 Used book ($0.01 + $3.99 shipping; used version available at this price from multiple sellers)

$8.00 Nail polish ($8 + Prime)

$2.27 Batteries ($2.27 + free shipping)

I spent sooooo much time on this! It was a lot more difficult than I thought it'd be. ツ Here's a screenshot in case the prices change. They tend to do that, especially for the cheap stuff. The batteries in particular go up & down more than a few times a day.

Lip balms that make your lips tingle dry out your lips - I majored in music, and I have found (through trial and error, and discussion with my professors in my brass program) that Dr. Bronner's Naked Lip Balm works best for me, and I used Lanolin and Vaseline as back up.

https://www.amazon.com/Dr-Bronners-Organic-Lip-Balm/dp/B00PX0ARAK

Most "medicated" lip balms are medicated with things that remove pain, but also increase drying. If it has things like Menthol and Salicylic Acid, you need to stay away from those! Camphor and phenol are both bad as well!

You also need to drink a lot more water, and one thing that has helped me with my chronically chapped lips are lip scrubs from Lush!

https://www.lushusa.com/face/lips/honey/07132.html

Yup! It doesn't even need to be nipple cream specifically; a rich, natural lip balm (such as Burt's Bees or these (there's also an all unscented version)) can also do double duty.

I use this kind as a sort of lip mask, since it's a bit goopy.... but I really like it, since it actually stays on my lips and doesnt have unnecessary added ingredients: https://www.amazon.com/Medical-Grade-Lanolin-Green-Label/dp/B01N9DHVC6/ref=asc_df_B01N9DHVC6/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312176484635&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=377613478014360347&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9033303&hvtargid=pla-568152821190&psc=1

I love this emu oil one for an all-day touch-up balm (it is a larger stick = easy to cover lips in one swipe): https://www.amazon.com/Montana-Emu-Ranch-Therapy-Unscented/dp/B01M8LI1PR

The emu ones come in single sticks and different flavors, but the 3 pack is the best deal. I'm pretty picky about lip stuff but.i know preferences really vary person to person!

**Skin type and skin concerns:**

Main concerns: Dryness, acne (cystic and general acne all over chin and cheeks), and splotchy discoloration all over my face (my dermatologist said it was melasma). My skin is consistently congested and breaking out, yet my entire face is sensitive, dull, itchy and flakey. After years of reading tips here, I've finally gotten to the point where redness and the majority of flaking is gone and products don't burn when they touch me, but my skin remains dull and feels tight.

​

While the products I've selected are relatively affordable, they add up. Plus I'm worried I'm doing more damage than good by overwhelming my skin with all these product. Mostly though, I'm so jealous of all your minimalist routines I see on here, and I want to create one that would work for me. I don't know where to start. What are your thoughts?

    **Daily behaviors possibly impacting skin:**
    
    My diet is crap. While I don't eat a lot of processed food, I eat too much sugar, too much oily and fatty foods, too much red meat and not enough vegetables. Because of my family, it's going to be difficult to make adjustments, and honestly I'm not sure where to start. Caffeine consumption is pretty high, while I only have the occasional coffee, I drink a TON of green tea and oolong tea. Water intake is fair, and I usually refill my 32oz water bottle 2 times a day (yes, I have to run to the bathroom at least every 30 minutes). I pretty much stopped wearing makeup a little over a year ago, now I only wear for special occasions and the occasional eye liner.

I think that this chapstick would be ever so useful for me to keep my lips hydrated and soft! Plus it's <$3 with free shipping!

Vaseline Lip Therapy Advanced Petroleum Jelly, 3 Count https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AUJ11N0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_sUp7AbBFPK6QW this is the best stuff but I prefer the scents so I like Palmer's or Burt's bees

Heh, I've been on for three months and when I got your pack I've been on 75mg ED with no nosebleeds yet :D (almost done with the first pack). Tried 100mg yesterday but felt even more of a lethargic zombie than usual. Super strong stuff. Had to end up buying this because my lips got way more dry than with another supplier's accutane at 60mg ED: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001B4X1YQ/ref=mp_s_a_1_2_a_it?qid=1466504522&sr=8-2&keywords=cortibalm&pi=SY200_QL40

It's supposedly highly recommended for accutane users.

On the left of the search page you can choose the seller. I usually click on AMAZON and feel like that weeds out all of these random sellers out there. Also, some beauty brands have accounts on Amazon where it shows the actual company name as the "seller" on the right of the product details page. Example - My favorite lip balm.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000052YDK

This stuff is amazing. It's better than anything, even the more expensive stuff. It makes your lips feel better immediately, and softens up the cracked part so that you can exfoliate it off. I use it every day before bed, and I have since high school.

http://www.amazon.com/Dr-Bronners-Organic-Lip-Balm/dp/B00PX0ARAK/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1456857514&sr=8-1&keywords=dr+bronners+lip+balm Here is a brand that uses cannabis oil. Still significantly less than Onnits bullshit.
EDIT: As a matter of fact, the Onnit lip balm doesnt even use cannabis oil. So this is irrelevant.

I've been dealing with a persistent and awful cracked lip situation - specifically, really desert-dry flaky patches at the corners of my mouth. I've put various kinds of oils on it, hydrocortisone ointment, layers and layers of lip balm etc. Any recommendations for really moisturizing lip masks/balms?

I'm using these at the moment: https://www.amazon.com/Beauty-Earth-Organic-Multi-Pack-Pomegranate/dp/B00NO8DT2G/ref=sr_1_14_s_it?s=beauty&ie=UTF8&qid=1493278062&sr=1-14&keywords=lip+balm

Sound advice, but you must use this.

TUBES NOW. GUYS. IT COMES IN TUBES.

Here is the mobile version of your link

One day a twenty-something girl was walking down the street when she saw some cat butts in front of her.

"That's weird..." she thought to herself, as she pulled her Burt's Bees out of her pocket and applied it to her lips. "I wonder if those cats are plotting to kill me?"

"Oh well" she decided, walking past the suspicious cats. "At least I'll have one last geocaching experience before I die"

In the end, the cats didn't kill her. But when she got home her pants were wrinkly from wandering around in the woods. Good thing she had an ironing board to smooth them out!

I've been loving Nivea lip balm lately, and they also make versions with SPF added. I also have a chronic habit of biting and licking my lips, and when I put a thick and nourishing lip balm on like these it helps remind me not to chomp on my poor lips. These do have a slightly sweet scent and flavor to them, so that might not help you if it tempts your taste buds. :P

I also do a quick exfoliation on my lips every other day when I get out of the shower by wetting the corner of a towel and gently buffing my lips for 5-10 seconds to slough off the dead skin that softened up in the warm water - helps keep damage from peeling at bay.

I would like to enter for this lip balm, please!

Thanks for the contest! <3

Nivea lip balm is the first lip balm I ever thoroughly used a whole tube of, then bought another. I like the blue ones the best, a kiss of smoothness and a kiss of moisture I think. The lip butters in the tins are nice too and smell really good! I recently bought a Palmer's cocoa butter lip balm on a whim from a 5 Below store and it's actually really nice! When I first opened it, it was a bit hard so it takes your body heat to warm the product up but once you use it several times it's good to go and it's really moisturizing. I'm really picky about lip balms and chapsticks! :P

Yes, that one! It's not that much cheaper on Amazon.co.jp, but I have lip balms/masks in that price range and above that contain 15g instead of a measly 1.5g, that's what bothers me the most :/ still, the reviews are great, I'm so curious.
