I have dry skin, and very dry lips- so especially in cold weather I need a good lip balm. I've collecting lip balms for years and years- and I've carried around some kind of balm everywhere I go since I was about 8, so naturally I have quite a few by now!
I thought I'd start a bit of a new series or reviews, this time on lip balms (concentrating on the ones that are actually still available; unfortunately quite a few of mine are old and discontinued)
I store my lip balms in an old e.l.f. box (recycling or being overly cheap?) which works really well for me- they're all together and out of the heat (HA! It's freezing today, I'm wearing fingerless gloves to type this!) and light. I decorated it with a little wrapping paper and snipped off the two side flaps to make it easier to open and close quickly :)
Perhaps I have too many lip balms... but I do use them all- I rotate through a lot and have at least 1 in my bag and one on my desk all the time!

What's your lip balm collection like? Are there any lip balms you think I'm missing? (I'd really love an EOS one!)

I have a thing about lipbalm too, I love the blue flava craze and ELF's candy shop ones. Still have some left. I did a post like this a while back (http://enigmatic-rambles.blogspot.com/2010/09/lipsalve-addict-or-chapstick-whore.html) really should update it though a year is a long time for an addict!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sad the lip tins are discontinued- mine are beginning to run low :( Yep, I bet you've gained lots in a year (I know I have...) but it's a good addiction to have- we'll always have soft lips!
