if your lips are crying, this helps
My lips are extremely sensitive and prone to allergy..... I was literally crying one day because my lips were so raw and had minute cracks all over and around my lips. I'm not really sure how to describe this sucky condition, but basically if your lips are broken, ILIA works!
Yes, this is expensive and it does leave (for me) a kind of gross looking white ring. I also went through it like *that*.
BUT!!!! it cured my lips. I would 100% buy this again and recommend to anyone who's lips are in a desperate state.
Results, but...
It has a sort of neutral bland muddled scent/ taste. It would strongly benefit from adding a flavor like vanilla or chai. That being said, it works better than *anything* else I've ever used (and I'm a serious lip product junkie). It stays on well, and works even better after exfoliation. No more flakes or dryness or cracking. I just wish it wasn't so expensive or I could get it in bulk, because it's hard to justify paying high-end lipstick prices for small tube of plain lip balm.
HG LIP BALM is the *BOMB*!!
I have been hunting for a replacement for my Carmex as I'm wishing to transition away from unnatural products to natural ones that actually work and this balm from ILIA is my new all time fave! I love that it comes in a nice stick formula and I don't have to dig into a jar with my finger, which let's be honest when you're on the go there's not always a place to wash your hands. But the BEST part of this yummy stuff is that it truly conditions lips and seems to keep them moisturized without making me feel like I need to constantly reapply- you know those lip products that claim to moisturize only to make your lips worse if you stop using it?! I will def be ordering more of these, for me and for gifts!!
