Clean Lip Care That’s Summer-Approved

Not to harp on the summer weather already, but we’re really feeling these record high temps. Particularly, when it comes to our skin and lips. And for those in active treatment, chances are your skin is feeling even more parched than usual. Thankfully, there are a slew of clean lip-care products that promise results far beyond your typical lip balm.  

Best Buy: Give A Care Natural Lip Balm

We may be partial to this packaging (and the cause it supports!) but there’s no denying the power of this balm’s hero ingredient: Argan oil. It’s a mega moisturizer that features high levels of vitamin E, phenols, carotenes, squalene and fatty acids. In other words: This delivers on its moisturizing promise. Available at Giveacare.ca  


Best Texture: Beautycounter Lip Conditioner

Name any moisturizing ingredient and it’s likely in this lip conditioner that nourishes and protects. Avocado, jojoba and shea butter promote super smooth lips while calendula and chamomile get to work at calming and healing dry skin. The best part? The formula is goop-free and won’t offend you if you’re sensitive to smells. Available at Beautycounter.com  


Best Lip Enhancing: Odacité Adventurine Kiss Lip Serum

Sure, a pricey lip serum sounds superfluous, but it might be worth a try if you’re looking for lip care benefits like plumping, firming and moisturizing—all in one (crystal) application. This new triple-threat serum boasts skin-softening essential oils like baobab, moringa, and jojoba and thanks to coenzyme Q10 and Vitamin C, antioxidant power that stimulates collagen and elastin. Available at The Detox Market  


Best Smoothing: HENNÉ Organics Luxury Lip Balm V2

Not just a pretty package, this USDA-certified Organic formula is ideal for sensitive skin types looking for an unscented and essential-oil-free option that works. Chock-full of moisturizers like coconut oil and beeswax, it’s no wonder this balm has a cult following. Available in-store at Murale and on beautyBOUTIQUE.ca
