 I know it seems a bit inappropriate to be discussing dehydrated lips in July but...
a)  It's national kissing day today!     ;)
b) England is currently pouring with rain
c) The aircon in my office has caused some serious lip peelage which has enabled me to bring out the big guns...

All three of these are phenomal in their own way, 24 hours with the three of these and lips are back to being full and plump, without a flake to be seen      :)

The Overnight Lip Treatment - Dr Lipp Original Nipple Balm For Lips
This is saved for my overnight maintenance times, usually applied before bed as it's very rich and sticky hence why its saved for evening use where there is no wind to attach my hair to my lips. It's a bit of a wonder balm, great for healing any dry skin, I even use it on my cuticles! It's very thick, unscented and quite greats but one big slathering of it and I wake up to fully nourished lips! (Also great if you're on roaccutane and are suffering from dry lips!)


The Long Nourrishing Lip Treatment  - Nuxe Reve De Miel - link to post 
Took me a while to get into this one, as it's matt and includes little gritty exfoliating beads that melt away when rubbed into the lips. It's the perfect base to keep on all day as it seriously lasts a good eight hours on the lips. It's the best for keeping lips nourished throuought the day  as I often find myself waking up to plump lips and coming home with cracked peeling ones. Perfect for day use under a drying lipstick like Mac.

The SOS Lip Treatment - Dermophil
I always feel terrible mentioning this one as it's impossible to get hold of in the UK. I'm sure most decent pharmacies that stock french brands would have it but I stock up on mine from France. It's very white and pasty but layered as a thick treatment works like a charm. If lips are feeling particularly sore and dry I massage a couple of layers into my lips for ultimate moisture. 
Just be sure to check that it's all rubbed in before walking around with white lips like I did in the office recently - wooops!      ;)


What are you SOS lip treatments?
