NIVEA have reformulated all of their lip balms and they’re absolutely disgusting and don’t work anymore.

The one I’ve been using for years is called: NIVEA Hydro Care Caring Lip Balm SPF15.

I need some recommendations for a replacement please and it has to be in the form of a chapstick, no tins or tubes.

So far I’ve tried O’Keefe’s Lip Repair and Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Lip Balm which weren’t suitable.

Thanks

    Palmers cocoa butter formula lip balm.

    Although it may help if you say why the others aren't suitable.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Carmex lip balm.


    They do pots and tubes but also the stick.
    I've seen it in Boots, Savers and Bodycare.

    Blistex Relief Cream - only thing that I find medicates my lips when they're really chapped. Also helps if you are prone to cold sores.

    Anyone tried O'Keeffe's lip repair?


    I rate their 'working hands' and 'healthy feet' but not tried the lip stuff.

    I used to use carmex, but now prefer blistex when my lips are really sore.

    However, my favourites at the moment are actually the coca cola lip smackers. They work fabulously.

    I always use Vaseline lip balm - they have quite a few different varieties .
