SCMP Reporter

Lip balms help to soothe and moisturise chapped  lips. Use it alone or as a base for lipstick, which tends to be drying. Remember to reapply after eating and at bedtime.

Caudalie Lip Balm ($120)

Moisturises lips without leaving a sticky feel. A great boost for dry winter lips.

Apivita Propoline Lip Aid with Chamomile & Olive Oil SPF15 ($40)

Contains chamomile and olive oil to soothe and moisturise lips while providing protection  from the sun. But it has a gluey feel and the moisturising effect is not intense.

Fancl Lip Cream ($62)

Soothes dry lips without leaving a shine. The fragrance-free cream can be used  as base for matte lipsticks, as it won't cause smudging. A good treat for delicate lips. Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Lip Moisturizer SPF 15 ($42.9)

A super-moisturising lip balm that leaves lips feeling soft and healthy while  protecting against sun damage. Suitable for both girls and guys.

Face Shop Delicious Lip Balm ($45)

The Honey Bee flavour has an appealing peach colour and aroma. It's slightly sticky, but leaves a luscious, glossy sheen and is a great moisturiser for dry lips. The only drawback is the ingredients list, which contains a half-dozen chemicals.
