There a few things I detest more in the world of beauty than lipsticks that dry out my already very dry lips—and I'm pleased to admit that Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm is not one of them. Because, yes, even some of the most seemingly nourishing lip balm formulas can turn my lips dry and flaky in a matter of minutes.
And dry lips do not make for a good base for lipstick. Not only does lipstick tend to look terrible on my patchy lips, it also dries them out even more, making matters worse. As a result, most days I avoid lipstick entirely—reserving it only for very special occasions and nights out. Instead, I like to opt for hydrating, tinted lip balms and lip oils. And for the past year or so, the product I have found myself turning to day after day is Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balms.
