Best lip balms for dry and chapped lips || Honest Review

Chapped lips? Your lip balm is right here at your service. Whether you are experiencing dry or chapped lips, lip balms work as a good solution to all your problems. So here we have come up with a good review of a bunch of lip balms so that it is easy for you all to choose.

 



1. Maybelline New York Alia Loves New York Lip Balm

This lip balm comes handy when you want to go subtle on your lips. Neither you want a bright lipstick nor a boring transparent balm. It gives you the right tint for such occasions. While the brand has launched 4 variety of shades from which Brookyln Bronze is my personal favorite. Just one swipe of this balm gives a good tint to your lips. Moreover it contains SPF 20 which is makes this much more beneficial. It remains for good 5 hours.

2. NIVEA Fruity lip balm 3 benefits in one

This is one of my personal favorites. A lip balm which I have been using from over an year now. It just gives me no reason to switch over. It comes as a 3 in 1 formula which claims to give relief to dry and chapped lips immediately which absolutely proved to be correct. Although it clear white and transparent but it’s a life saver. It blends onto your lips while giving a strawberry  luster. It stays up for more than 3 hours which is pretty good. Overall it’s a worth for the price charged.




3. Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Lip Moisturizer

This is another kind of transparent lip balms. Not only lightweight but also gives a smooth lip. It contains SPF 15 which is definitely an added bonus. However it contains no fragrance or odour which is not so good about this lip balm. It requires reapplication within 2 to 3 hours. You can easily buy this on various online stores.

4. Biotique Bio Fruit Whitening Lip Balm



This lipbalm is a perfect formula for lightening dark lips and making them healthy and supple. Being dermatologically tested for safety it proves to be a best choice for a person with not only dry and chapped lips but also uneven lip tone. It is worth a shot! Above all it is organically pure and preservative free giving it a plus point.


5. Lakme Lip Love Lip Care

New super moisturizing formula that bits good bye to dry lips which claims to be lasting for 22 hours. However 22 hours claim is a question mark for me. Not only does it have SPF 15  but is also available in six shades and one colorless variant.



6. Mamaearth Natural Lip Balm For Women With Shea Butter & Strawberry 

Mamaearth natural lip balm claims to contain natural ingredients such as olive oil and coconut oil that gently moisturizes dry chapped lips whereas shea butter and vitamin e soothes and repairs damaged lips. It’s a natural lip balm with no artificial ingredients. Also it contains strawberry fragrance which makes this lip balm definitely a worth to try.

Going to college everyday with a busy and hectic schedule can be really tiresome, so to manage it all your college bag must have space enough and at the same time be stunning so that you go smart.So here are some college bag must haves which you should not definitely miss them out!

 

First thing’s first have a good size bag so that your things fit in very well. May be a tote bag will work well or a backpack!

So just start of with a small size common notebook, that is very obvious. Next, keep a hair tie or a scrunchy so that you can tie your hair whenever you feel like.

Make sure to keep a hand sanitizer, because travelling by metro or any other conveyance can get germs in your hands.Do not forget to keep some safety pins, these are handy many times. Now girls out there must carry an extra piece of jacket or a fabric just in case if your **Pd_date** is nearby!

A hand cream is very handy during winters when hands become dry more often, so make sure to keep a small size cream with you.

Don’t forget to keep or tie  a scarf on your  bag handle to protect yourself from dust and sun-rays, even it is helpful during rainy season!
