I have the hardest time finding a lip balm that doesn’t actually end up drying out my lips. So I went on the hunt for one that actually does the trick and one that I could make myself! I have tried other concoctions, but this is my favorite so far.
Lip balm or lip salve is a wax-like substance applied topically to the lips of the mouth to relieve chapped or dry lips, angular cheilitis, stomatitis, or cold sores. Lip balm often contains beeswax or carnauba wax, camphor, cetyl alcohol, lanolin, paraffin, and petrolatum, among other ingredients. Some varieties contain dyes, flavor, fragrance, menthol, phenol, salicylic acid, and sunscreens.*..^’
