Say what you will about Nivea but they do have their timeless pieces when it comes to keeping skin healthy. Their lip butter has been around for a long time and is a fall back that I resort to often when my lips just get beyond help and other balms/treatments stop working.
It is a thick balm that spreads out over lips giving them a shield like an effect when damaged or that niggling starts of chapped lips. It is really rich which is why I don't use it on the daily but when I am run down and my lips are taking damage this is my go to. The only problem I have is the tin is so small I lose them all the time and probably have half a dozen littered in bags, coat pockets, desk drawers, etc. But when I need one they all vanish so I end up buying a new one.
I love the Vanilla & Macadamia Lip Butter. Lovely smell and feels great on the lips. Stays on and coats the lips nicely. Comes in a lovely tin which is easy to open and a great size. The unscented lip butter is also good but my first preference is the Vanilla. Often on special at The Warehouse and Supermarkets. Awesome value and lasts a long time.
