When I’m on my desert island with the one product I’m able to bring along with me, I will be soaking up the sun rays as red as a lobster, burnt to a crisp with frizzy hair and starved for entertainment. But I will be coating my lips in lip balm, and I’ll be happy.
I am a self-confessed lip balm addict. Before I even ventured down the path of reviewing beauty products in an official capacity, I had a lip balm in every bag, bedside table and room in the house. Back then, the Nivea Original Care Lip Balm was my holy grail – and while the nourishing formula does indeed stand the test of time, brands have become more creative and advanced in their pout protection.
