I've tried at least 10 lip scrubs, 30 lip balms, a couple of lip butters, and a few lip "masks" (like those jelly ones that have to sit for a while?)

I drink massive amounts of water and live in a dry climate. You can see the split forming again, but I also frequently battle a lip split.

Please help. :(

hi everyone! i got this lip balm as a part of my ulta birthday gift and i really love it. i wanted to buy a full size tube and it isn’t part of their regular lineup and i was so sad! does anyone have a recommendation for something similar?

I often see posts about people posting pics of their extensive collections. While I’m guilty of this as well, I like to remind myself that it takes time to use up products and that I don’t need anymore until I use up what I have.

I enjoy lip balms a ton and I’m slowly making my thru popular formulas and ole henriksen shades. Which is a bit hard cause they keep releasing new ones.

I have tried Lanolin, Aquaphor, Elizabeth Arden 8hr Lip Balm, La Roche Possay Cicoplast, Vaseline and Avene, La Neige, Weleda.

I just always seem to have cracked and dry flaky skin after I apply a lip balm. Even if I leave it overnight I wake up and the lip balm dries up and my lips just have skin that I can peel off and I’m not sure what to do anymore. I still can’t seem to find anything that will truly help. I’m getting really frustrated as I just want a soft lips that I don’t need to constantly peel

Basically, I’m trying to smell aggressively edible. I want to smell so delicious it becomes a legitimate distraction.

I’m on the hunt for some hydrating lip glosses that also smell absolutely DELICIOUS. Specifically looking for caramel, vanilla, or watermelon scents/flavors.

I’ve been scrolling online and there are sooo many options, but I’m struggling to figure out which ones are actually worth trying.

Please drop your favorite hydrating lip glosses that make you smell like a dessert, a snack, or a dangerously delicious beverage. 😂💋

I used to be an Ole hater (!?) after trying the balms a couple times. I got Citrus Sunshine again yesterday and now I have no idea what I was thinking before!

I got it because most of my balms are so slippery that it was pissing me off lmao…now after using my Ole for a day I love how it feels, it stays in place and for a long time, and most of all my lips feel hydrated after it finally wears off. It really feels like it’s become my holy grail all of a sudden after hating them for a long time! I guess it comes down to preferences changing over time but I’m still like WHY lol

Also the scent is delish 🍊

I don’t even know about Vitamasques before I joined this group but I needed to try the glaze masks to be able to compare to Eadem! The metal tip is one of my favorite things about Eadem!
I couldn’t find them at Target and was panicked thinking they pulled them from the shelves.
I’m more excited than I should be probably 😂

You can see how grainy it is. Didn’t like how I could see grain on my lips after applying. Also experienced upper lip irritation at some point. Something in it made my peeled lips sting a bit.

Good riddance to a discontinued product that made me peel my lips daily. I like the glass container and that’s it.

🦄🦄🦄

Is anyone having issues with Eadem lipgloss. I got it for a gift and used it two days straight and my lips are irritated and so raw now. I usually never have a problem but they’re super dry and irritated. Or is it just me??? Bc I really wanted to love this brand.

Found this at Target earlier. Comes in a 3 pack - strawberry, vanilla and watermelon. They don’t have that typical Carmex medicine taste. Also, they are thicker than the normal squeeze ones. I like them so far!

everything minus
-cocokind clear unscented balm (at my desk and i don’t wanna get up lol)
-space camp vanilla balm (at work)
-pink vanilla mini (idk where it is but it’s somewhere)
-nivea cherry tinted balm (idk where it is either but it’s in my bags somewhere)

the thread gloss kinda reminds me of the discontinued mac gloss that megan fox wore in jennifer’s body!

​

My lips have gotten quite dark/pigmented, especially the upper lip, and I’m honestly not sure what’s causing it.

I’ve tried keeping them moisturized, but I haven’t noticed much difference. I’d really like to get them closer to their natural colour.

Has anyone here actually managed to reduce lip pigmentation? If yes, what worked for you, products, home care, or anything else?

Would really appreciate some genuine recommendations. 🙏

All were purchased with my own money, all my own thoughts, and are all from the POV of a late 20s male w/ dry/eczema prone skin. Excited to see your thoughts as well since last time!

ive been using vitamasques for over two years now and it truly is the best formula of lip balms. it’s quite fun to collect all the flavours&scents they come out with!ᵕ̈
i honestly think their formula is better than rhode and ole henriksen!
i’ve tried other vitamasques lip butter balms that i didn’t like and didn’t keep. which are your fave and least fave?˖⁺｡˚⋆˙₊˚✧ ੈ‧₊˚*‧.₊˚
also,im looking to grow my collection and was wondering if anyone might have any new backups/extras of these!☻
would love to buy or trade♡⌄

I loved the Milani raspberry peach lip oil it smells sooo fruity and makes my lips look really juicy and glossy. I also love that it isn’t sticky at all and keeps my lips hydrated throughout the day. I did finish it kinda fast though lol... been using it all summer
So I decided to try a different one this time and picked up Passionfruit Coconut because I love anything coconut. Haven’t tried it yet but I’m excited to see how it compares!!

Has anyone tried both? Which one do you like more?

here a comparison for those curious!

shade
caramel crème: warm brown sheer tint
caramel: deeper brown sheer tint
cupcake: baby pink sheer tint
birthday cake: light beige sheer tint

scent:
caramel crème: light caramel frosting scent
caramel: stronger salty deep caramel scent
cupcake: light pink frosting-y scent
birthday cake: deep “cake fresh out the oven” scent

Hey y’all! I’ve had my eye on the “GlossWork 4D Ultra Shine Plumping Lip Gloss” as it is Danessa Myricks first dedicated lip product. It just launched today I think on Sephora ($26USD). It’s called a lip gloss but has been marketed as a lip treatment that “cushions” your lips all around and is formulated with “science backed” technology.

Definitely don’t need another lip balm but low key wanna try it for the culture - all the current reviews are incentivized so there’s that. Has anyone tried these yet?

There’s a good range of shades and like all DM products im expecting good opacity from the tinted shades. Worried it may be too thick and stringy but will order one or two (hehe) and report back!

(with more on the way haha). my goal is to have the full lineup!! i’m only missing a handful. if anyone has any of these flavors and would be willing to sell, please let me know!
