Beauty buzz: lip balms

Keeping your lips soft and smooth in winter requires maintenance. Whether you need a daily hydration fix or want fuller, glossier lips, these balms are sure to keep the smile on your face.

(HK$240) is a minty, pale balm with a soft texture that makes it a joy to apply. The balm absorbs quickly and gives a pleasantly cool, tingling sensation - proof that one of the key ingredients - menthol, which freshens and stimulates skin - is at work. Another ingredient, zinc oxide, serves as a natural sunscreen and promotes healing. Available at Joyce Beauty and 10/10 Space.
