Lip Balm

Lips have no oil glands, so they dry out faster than the rest of the face and need a balm that seals as well as soothes. Look for petrolatum, shea butter, ceramides or lanolin to hold moisture in, and hyaluronic acid or glycerin to add it. Two extras are worth paying for. A balm with SPF protects the lower lip, which gets steady sun and is where most sun damage on the mouth shows up. Tinted balms give colour with far less drying than a matte lipstick. If your lips are always cracked, check the habits before the product: licking lips, mouth breathing, dehydration and flavoured balms that invite licking all keep them raw. Persistent cracking at the corners of the mouth is worth showing a doctor.
