We tried lip balms from Boots, Asda, Superdrug and a £2 tube worked 'instantly'

It's that time of year when the weather turns cool and you have to start reaching for the lip balm that little bit more.

Cold weather, central heating and the inevitable winter coughs and colds can leave your lips feeling parched. Fortunately, there's plenty of products in the shops and supermarkets to rehydrate your lips and this week we've been putting them to the test.
