Having already established that Beauty Wonkette has a certain fetish for lippies of all types, she thought it time to devote some space to lip balms. Not lipstick. Not lip gloss. Not lip stains. LIP BALMS!!! During our Lake Como vacation, lip balm was just about all Beauty Wonkette needed (ah, okay, along with the occasional mascara; good lip balm doubles as eye shadow btw :D ). Here are Beauty Wonkette's 5 favorites. At least, for right now:
FOR A POSH PUCKER
Eve Lom Kiss Mix: In the realm of luxe lip balms, this one, from the renowned British facialist, is our favorite. The formula feels amazing on the lips and leaves the slightest pale, glossy tint on lips. $25 at Space NK
PRINCESS JASMINE
Clarks Botanicals Ultra Rich Lip Balm: An effective all-around balm with an amazing jasmine oil scent we can’t get enough of. $19 at Clarks Botanicals
A POT OF SWEET (and Beauty Wonkette's favorite favorite)
Julie Hewett Camelia Lip Balm: For those who don’t like a thick, heavy balm, this one is so light-textured it can even be used on the face. It comes in a substantial pot that feels nice in the hand and smells faintly like a Creamsicle. $14 at Julie Hewett
MMMMMMM BUTTAH
The Body Shop Shea Lip Care Stick: For fans of the company’s cult body butter, a lush, shea butter-infused balm for the lips that smells faintly of coconut oil. $15 for two at The Body Shop
BEAT THE SUN W/ THIS CONCESSION TO THE RECESSION !
Jack Black Black Diamond Formula Intense Therapy Lip Balm SPF 25: The newest version of this ultra-healing balm has a delicious lemony, vanilla-y scent that reminds us of cake. And the high SPF will make your dermatologist happy. $7 at Sephora
