There are, of course, hundreds of lip balms to choose from, from relatively inexpensive (but very good) such as Burts Bees, to all time all year round favourite Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Lip Balm to my current favourite, Clarins Instant Light Lip Balm Perfector.
A lip balm, to me, has to be lipstick shaped so that I can take it anywhere, be applied just like a lipstick with no finger involved, have no or almost no fragrance and either no colour or something subtle. And it needs to do just what it says on the tin – just as these do.
The joy of a really good lip balm is that you can wear them on their own or with your own lip colour and ensure smooth, moisturised lips at all times.
