Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15
We love that there are so many options of colours to choose from – ranging from berry’s, pinks and nudes, Fresh’s Sugar Lip Treatment has got our lips covered. With SPF 15, it protects and smoothens the lips with real sugar—a natural humectant—delivering delectable and dependable moisture.
Aesop Protective Lip Balm SPF30
This hydrating balm from Aesop is enhanced with UVA and UVB filters to shield lips from the sun’s damaging rays. The botanical oils in the balm help to soften and nourish the lips, whilst keeping them hydrated all day. What we love is that it’s formulated without silicone, paraffin, beeswax or other animal-derived ingredients.
Tatcha The Kissu Lip Mask
All the hours indoors and under the airconditioning will continuously drain the lips of moisture. Finding myself constantly reaching for lip balm during the day, at night we level up to a lip mask. Tatcha’s The Kissu lip mask is a great option as it intensely comforts, hydrates and locks in moisture for overnight renewal.
Blistex Lip Medex
No bells and whistles with this formula, but it truly works like magic. The Blistex Lip Medex instantly soothes sore and super dry lips. Its medicated ingredients deliver immediate relief with its subtle cooling action that restores the moisture balance of the lips.
