Show of hands – how many of us have dry, cracked lips during winter?
Let’s face it – when Tuesday’s 32 degrees felt practically tropical here on the East Coast, it’s bad news for your skin.
Superbalm
I recieved Liz Earle’s Superbalm a few weeks ago and immediately loved how it soothed and softened my lips. I am a huge fan of the Liz Earle line in general, and especially the Superskin line, and Superbalm is a great go-to product, especially for lips and cuticles. Just smooth a tiny bit over your lips and you’ll see an instant difference – dry areas calm down, and those little vertical lines smooth away.
The Experience
I love the texture – it goes on smooth and light. In the jar it feels a bit softer than shea butter, and it feels a little lighter than melted shea butter when it’s on the skin. I really don’t like the waxy feel of most lip balms, and Superbalm doesn’t feel waxy at all. It has a great roster of ingredients – not limited to Vitamin E, Avocado Oil, Rosehip Oil (a great lipid), Chamomile Extract Oil to soothe skin, West African Shea, and Lavender Oil gives it the great scent.
When I’m applying makeup I’ll smooth a bit on my lips and apply my lip color last after Superbalm has had time to soak in and make my lips soft and even. It gets to work and you will have a perfect canvas for your lipstick!
Find it at LizEarle.com for $29.00 for a 1 oz jar and $8.50 for a very purse-friendly .1 oz pot.
