Does your basic mint lip balm still cut it? Lip balms and treatments are a big buzz in beauty right now. But which ones are worth it?
Does your basic lip balm still cut it? Lip balms and treatments are a big buzz in beauty right now – and more expensive, too. But, which ones are worth it?
One of the first beauty items I ever fell in love with was lip balm. The Body Shop’s glass pots of flavoured balms, from spearmint to cherry and kiwi fruit, were everyone’s favourites. Many of us have a lip balm habit, carrying one with us around at all times, like a grown-up soother: there’s something comforting about having one with you.
Although high prices have become more of a norm, we know that we don’t need to spend a fortune on a good lip balm –For an Irish option, Pestle & Mortar’s Chummi lip masks are buttery and decent value for 20g, which will last for ages. However, the additional tube packaging, while attractive, seems superfluous, and as a pot it’s rather large to carry around. We love one with a bit of tint, too, or you can mix a balm with lip crayon or colour for the same effect.
