Luxury Lip Balm
12 Luxurious Lip Balms Worth the Price Tag
When blustery weather hits, that's the time when soft, supple lips shrivel up into a chapped mess. While Vaseline will do the job well enough, these products are for lip balm enthusiasts. We're talking the crème de la crème of lip care. But the price isn't just in the packaging — you'll find the top ingredients to hydrate extremely dry lips in these picks from La Mer, Rodin, and more. We've already rounded up our favorite lip balms from the drugstore, but don't your lips deserve a little luxury this season?
3 Lab Healthy Glow Lip Balm ($55) is the lip balm we keep stocked in our carryall bag (buried right underneath the laptop and next to the breath mints). This sheer stick goes on lightly and quickly absorbs into your pout.
Putting on lip balm is the first step in our daily makeup routine. We like to let the lip conditioner sit while we apply all the other powders and creams. This Omorovicza Perfecting Lip Balm ($45) melts away dry skin and creates a great base for pigmented lipsticks.
A dozen roses aren't cheap. But you can still get your flower fix, thanks to this By Terry Baume de Rose ($56) balm, which is packed with rose wax. Shea butter and botanical oils also season the moisturizing mix.
Castor oil is one of the most moisturizing elixirs around, and it's the main ingredient in Rodin Lip Balm ($34). You'll also find jasmine, beeswax, and aloe vera in the compact.
Looking for a balm to remedy cracked lips overnight? Turn to the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Intensive Lip Repair Balm ($33). The original Eight Hour Cream is a Hollywood favorite, and this lip treatment will be on your Winter must-have list, too.
Peeling, chapped lips, and your favorite matte lipstick don't go well together. Stock the Chantecaille Lip Potion ($43) in your makeup kit and apply a dab before your lip color for smooth results.
Sisley Paris Comfort Extreme Nutritive Lip Balm ($74) is the formula you want to pack if you're planning a holiday ski trip. Sunflower and hazelnut oils soften lips, while shea butter will barricade against Winter winds.
OK, so we know men and beauty don't generally mix, but you'll be able to convince him to pack this Tom Ford Hydrating Lip Balm ($25) in his back pocket. It's one the two of you can share.
A plump pout that doesn't look greasy is a hard feat to achieve. However, Rodial Glam Balm Lip ($24) makes lips appear fuller and adds shine without the sticky finish. Plus, vitamin E provides long-lasting moisture.
Is there anything more luxe than Crème de la Mer? Yes, La Mer The Lip Balm ($55). Expect the same marine ingredients that make the original cream so effective — plus, it has a refreshing mint flavor.
Why not add a touch of 24-karat gold to your kiss? The Tatcha Gold Camellia Nourishing Lip Balm ($36) has a gilded leaf inside that adds a subtle shimmer (and a lot of moisture) to your pout upon application.
The La Prairie Antiaging Eye and Lip Perfection à Porter ($160) has the two top skin care essentials in one compact. Not only are you getting a luxurious lip balm, but there is also an eye cream. Insider tip: use these creams on cracked cuticles, too.
