I use Nivea lip balms. I'm lucky that my lips dont need to much attention. They are generally well behaved? So i just use the cheap ones for some added moisture :)

NIVEA, I've tried a lot like baby lips, pawpaw etc. and I've personally found that NIVEA balms do work the best especially the Hydro care one in the light blue packaging.

My lips are ridiculously sensitive, so I am allergic to a heap of balms. I tend to use Dr. Hauschka lip balm which is 100% natural and organic. I reacted really really badly to Lucas PawPaw Ointment, but I have heard other people rave about it

Baby Lips is a good one for lip conditioning. Available at most supermarkets in lippy form, with different flavors, and at a good price. Well worth a go.

Not an lip balm exactly but Elizabeth Arden's 8 hour cream works wonders on my lips :)

Since I received the Triloy Balm, thanks to BR, thats all I have been putting on my lips. So smooth and conditioning. I haven't tried the Baby Lips but am interested in knowing how they compare to Nivea lip balms

Thanks Lisa for your comment! I can't wait to use mine on my lips too. They have been so bad lately. I think the weather has a lot to do with it. Will let you know how I go with it :-)

I don't use any! I previously used the Lucas Pawpaw everyday - I carried one with me always and constantly applied it because my lips always felt dry without it on. So I went cold turkey because I did not like being so reliant. It took my lips about a week to recover and now I have no problems with dry, chapped lips. I think natural is the way to go!

Nivea Lip butter and MOR lip maceron are my faves. The latter is a little pricier but soooo yummy. They both leave your lips soft and smooth and I never get cracked lips anymore.

I love the EOS lip balms. The mint one is my favourite. Ridiculous price if you find them in NZ tho :( I also love the Nivea lip butter, I've only tried the vanilla and macadamia one.

I also have been dragged under by baby lips. They smell GREAT and make my lips feel amazing. I used to swear by Nivea though.

I used to use Lucas Paw Paw but found it a bit messy, so moved to a mango burt's bees one. I have that in my bag and trilogy everything balm at home. I used EOS balm but the mint one I had made my lips dry. I found baby lips to be really drying too.

Either the Strawberry or the Cherry....gorgeous vintage tins, smells so yummy and has a hint of colour!

I get my sister in law to send it over from the UK for me!

I only every use blistex or Nimue lip balm. They always work on keeping my lips soft, smooth and kissable. Also if I forget to use and my lips dry out with the horrible weather I can count on Blistex medicated to get them back to normal. Works a treat on the kids' lips as well. Blistex also has the benefit of spf.

I tried babylips a few days ago and now I cant imagine my life without it! Love the moisture with a tint of colour for the days and I'm too lazy to apply lipstick :)

Nivea works for me every time. You can pick it up anywhere and don't need a mirror when you apply it.

I've never liked Nivea lip balms, they always seem to make my lips worse. I can't live without Lucas Pawpaw ointment, its the best. Other than that I find the Blistex range really good.

I second the nivea lip butters! I've only tried the caramel one which I really love, sadly its gone walkies at the moment, in my handbag I always have a maybelline baby lips. Love it how they are scented, and different finishes to them.

I do not go anywhere without my Lucas' Pawpaw. I have one on my bedside table, one in my uni bag, one in my handbag, and even one in my car. They are everywhere but always in the right place when I need one. The perfect mix of moisturizing and shine for me. Plus it is great for everything else - from cuts to burns and even rashes. The absolute necessity!

Nivea Strawberry Fruity Shine lip balms are my go-to as they keep my lips feeling soft, give them a slight flattering red tint and smell yummy which is a super bonus. If you're looking to condition your lips, Baby Lips is the best one for the job, but I find Nivea is best in general (and less expensive!).

Lucas Paw Paw is pretty legit. I like the body shop lip balms too especially the strawberry!
