ChapStick

MARIO BADESCU - Witch Hazel & Rosewater Toner This is actually an empty to be honest. I just refilled it with witch hazel because ai love the container. But while I was using the actual product my skin was great. RATA & CO. - Rose Water & Witch Hazel Facial Mist Toner Honestly I don’t even know if this works. It just feels nice and is kinda fun to use. It has Vitamin C and aloe vera but I will have to use it more. CeraVe - AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion SPF 30 Boring I know but it gets the job done. The pumps are kinda small though, I have to apply to wet skin in order to cover my whole face but It kinda reacts weird with water. Like it doesn’t blend into my skin. CeraVe - PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion I love the texture to this product and have no genuine complaints. HAWAIIAN Tropic - Silk Hydration Air Soft Ultra-Light Sun Lotion SPF50 I feel like this isn’t very good. I love the scent though and the color makes it unnoticeable. I don’t feel like I’m wearing sunscreen. Very lightweight. CeraVe - Resurfacing Retinol Serum I have seen a noticeable difference in my acne scarring but have to use it more. CeraVe - Hydrating Facial Cleanser I LOVE how gentle this cleanser is. It feels super nice. That’s it. #Studio 35 Beauty - Vitamin E Skin Oil[products]#[FourStars] Very heavy but I only wear at night. Also with being on accutane, the first few weeks I would wake up with very dry skin. But my skin isn’t dry at all in the morning while applying this on parts of my face along with the vitamin C serum. NATURE'S TRUTH - Professional Vitamin C Serum I wake up glowing when I apply this at night. Bio-Oil - Multiuse Skincare Oil No I don’t apply this to my face but just in general my whole skin gets super dry with the medication, so this also acts as a moisturizer for stretch marked parts of my legs and works amazing. Aquaphor - Healing Ointment Skin Protectant Holy grail for dry lips and recommended by my dermatologist. ChapStick - Total Hydration Moisture + Tint Lip Balm This came in a gift basket for a white elephant last christmas. But the color is great and it’s just fun to use. Gets the job done, especially before Zoom classes. Vaseline - Lip Therapy Rosy Lip Balm LOVE THIS!!!! World’s best lip balm. Cetaphil - Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream Works wonders for dry accutane skin on your body. Let me note that I have no idea what I’m doing. Please give me any advice if I’m doing something wrong, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!❤️

i’m not sure about anyone else but i love chapsticks! it’s honestly such an annoying thing to me when i have chapped lips so ive searched and searched and searched for the let lip products and here is the personal data i have found! Glossier. - Balm Dotcom super moisturizing and smells great! i’ve had the same one since before december! NIVEA - A Kiss of Moisture Essential Lip Care soooo well at moisturizing and live the scent too! ChapStick - Total Hydration Moisture + Tint Lip Balm don’t really love the tint for myself, but great at keeping my lips soft! BITE - Agave+ Daytime Vegan Lip Balm supperrrr moisturizing, so much to the point where the balm broke and feel out of the application. but it did great things for my lips! DIOR - DIOR Addict Lip Glow Color Reviving Lip Balm super soft for my lips and is super cool because it’s supposed to give you the tint that is made for your lips! although i did not like the tint on myself. Rosebud Perfume Co. - Rosebud Salve in a Tube LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS!! super glossy, hydrating, and smells like roses! LANEIGE - LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask sooo hydrating, and smells great, i just won’t be buying again due to the price ($20) BURT’S BEES - Lip Balm i don’t find this to be very moisturizing, but lots of my friends love it! ChapStick - Classic Skin Protectant Strawberry Flavored Lip Balm can be hydrating, the smell is just too strong for me. Vaseline - Lip Therapy, Original Lip Balm the best for cracked lips!

💗 In order of favorite to didn’t like 😩 For more info/ingredients, check out my full reviews of almost all of these on my page😉💗 unpa.Cosmetics - Bubi Bubi Lip Ampoule $9 🇰🇷 My absolute favorite! Super hydrating & moisturizing with 3 forms of hyaluronic acid & Ceramides. Soft buttery rose scent🌹I can’t recommend this enough. The price tag isn’t even that bad considering you get twice as much product as a typical chapstick style tube lip balm. sun bum - Signature SPF 30 Sunscreen Lip Balm $5 🇺🇸 My current go-to lip balm with sunscreen (Zinc/mineral) So moisturizing & nourishing for an SPF lip balm! Almond oil, Jojoba seed oil & Shea butter are the first 3 ingredients, & Argan oil comes in 6th. Barely there almond scent. LANEIGE - LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask $22 🇰🇷 Scent: Gummy Bear I love this indulgent balm even during the day. Not always in the mood for the grape candy scent though🐻🍇 LANEIGE - Lip Glowy Balm $17 🇰🇷 Scent: Gummy Bear A superb lipgloss-effect lip balm. Very moisturizing but not sticky. Scent isn’t as strong as the sleeping mask. UZ - 38°C/99°F LIP TREATMENT $25 🇯🇵 Shade: ±0 A very thick fragrance free repair balm with prebiotic properties. It’s currently the best selling lip treatment in Japan, but I didn’t feel it was new holy grail. clé de peau BEAUTÉ - UV Protective Lip Treatment Broad Spectrum SPF 30 $65 🇯🇵 A very overpriced chemical sunscreen lip balm that didn’t offer any lasting hydration, but rather made my lips dry & cracked. ChapStick - Moisturizer Original $1-$3 🇺🇸 I used this for years as my SPF lip balm, but it never really “worked” & I would apply it constantly! I stopped using products with petroleum/petroleum derivatives. I find that lip balms with Petrolatum (Vaseline) as the first ingredient/main emollient (moisturizer) just don’t work for me. Rosebud Perfume Co. - Rosebud Salve in a Tube $7 🇺🇸 🥀This is another Petrolatum lip balm that somehow makes its way into “Clean Beauty” at Sephora, but I feel this lip balm is too thin & slippery, & it just doesn’t offer any lasting moisture at all! My lips crave more when I apply this, making it a mess. Being the lip balm addict I am, I had to purchase this from the boutique I was working at last year one day during a shift when I forgot my chapstick. It was the only lip balm we sold😩 💗PLEASE DROP YOUR FAVORITE LIP BALM IN THE COMMENTS, I MUST KNOOOOOO !!!! ( or share one u hate so we can avoid it & save our $ lol)

ChapStick - Original Moisturizer SPF 15 Sunscreen and Skin Protectant ☻︎ i love this chapstick because of the availability and price. I tend to lean towards unscented products due to my sensitivity, but I love the natural smell of this chapstick! ☹︎It feels slightly creamy to apply, slightly waxy to wear, and slowly absorbs into the lips as your skin warms the formula up. My only complaint would be about the waxy feel, but that doesn’t leave any residue on my lips. ☻︎I’m quite a forgetful and clumsy person, so I don’t really trust myself not to lose products I take around with me everywhere (like chapstick), which is why I love how this is affordable and sold almost everywhere! When it comes to a deep moisturizer for my lips, I’ll do a more expensive lip mask nightly, because I trust myself not to lose that.

I figured I would give these slides I made their own post since so many people seemed to find it helpful. ⚠️DISCLAIMER: I’m not a skincare expert. This information is based on my own internet research. It’s easy to find conflicting information about almost any topic or Ingredient, so don’t freak out if you use some of these ingredients. I grew up using all things Vaseline & cheap drugstore products in the house... I think I first had reservations about Vaseline when trying to use it as a lip balm replacement. It didn’t offer anything beyond the illusion of hydration at first, leaving me craving a reapplication. When I learned about what it actually does I understood why. In 2020 there are so many petroleum product free products available at affordable prices, but it’s important to note that these ingredients are still prevalent in so many drugstore skincare products & even in highend products like La Mer crème. Aside from Vaseline brand, it’s uncommon to find information regarding the refinement process of petroleum products in the US, making it harder to know what’s safe... These ingredients are still so prevalent despite the concerns simply due to their very cheap manufacturing costs. They’re also in shampoos, conditioners & body lotions. The use of these ingredients skincare products has been banned in Europe if the full refinement history is not disclosed. Why people use Vaseline: There are 2 different types of moisturizers. Products like essences & serums hydrate the skin without the waxes & emollients that make creams & lotions thick, so they don't clog pores or feel greasy or heavy. This first type adds moisture to the skin & the other stops or “blocks” the natural moisture that your skin produces from being lost to the atmosphere. Due to the large molecule size of Vaseline, it coats of the outer layer of your skin to prevent water loss, but cannot be truly absorbed. (See my last 2 posts to discover an interesting moisturizing product that actually has the same molecular size as our skin particles!) So in theory, Vaseline is used as a skin protectant. Vaseline brand petroleum jelly is purified & refined to a level that the FDA considers non-carcinogenic. Personally I would steer clear of it for lip balm because there are so many other options to hydrate without the consumption risk. 👄I added a slide of a few popular lips balms w/ petrolatum is the 1st ingredient. It’s also important to think about the cleanliness of your Vaseline container. Considering it will trap any bacteria on your skin or wounds under it, what bacteria may already exist in the container? I know for me growing up, the family Vaseline jar in the bathroom was pretty gross. A lot of people still swear by this stuff, just look up “Tyra Vaseline frenzy” on YouTube... but if you have sensitive or acne prone skin, I personally don’t recommend it. Try something like pure vitamin E oil in a dropper to minimize bacteria. It will nourish dry lips & dry skin patches!
