All the lip balms I'm using right now
It’s Valentine’s Day, so naturally lips are top of mind. Lip balm is a constant in my life whether I’m at home or on the go, and I ALWAYS have one within reach. Today’s post is a shout-out to Cupid—and a glimpse at how I keep my lips soft and kissable 365 days a year.
The balm: Glossier Balm Dotcom in “Coconut”
The locations: Kitchen and office
These are the two places I spend the most time, so that’s where I keep my favorite balm (I bought three the last time I placed an order). Super-hydrating and oh-so-delicious, it stays put for hours at a time even after eating and drinking—and one tube lasts forever. I’ve tried all of the Balm Dotcom options (which include Birthday Cake, Mint, Rose, Cherry and the Original unscented/untinted version) and they’re all amazing.
The balm: Dior Lip Glow
The location: My bag
This balm is my go-to when out and about because the color adapts to my lips for a natural-looking flush. The original version is still a favorite but the recent launch of new shades and finishes (i.e. holographic and matte) make hydrating my lips all that more fun.
The balm: Patchology Lip Service Gloss-to-Balm Treatment
The location: My bathroom
Whether getting ready to head somewhere or simply freshening up before the hubs gets home, I love this product because it’s moisturizing, glossy—and it plumps as well thanks to hyaluronic acid.
The balm: Emile Cordon No. 29 Dorine Cashmere-On Lip Pot
The location: My nightstand
My bedroom is my sanctuary, so I like to keep nightstand clutter to a minimum and take aesthetics to the max. This little pot of lip balm is more than pretty, it’s helps me end my day on a luxurious note. Available in a variety of scents (mine is lemon and neroli—and unfortunately sold out), the anti-aging formula features evening primrose oil and vitamin E, and it can be used on dry cuticles as well.
