Vaseline Original Pure Skin Jelly
Nothing beats the Vaseline mini jelly jars which you get at your local mom and pop chemist. Perfect for those notorious for misplacing their lip balms like me, since it’s so cheap. If it’s healing you’re after, Vaseline is still the most basic, effective, time-tested lip balm.

Himalaya Herbals
Himalaya’s lip balm is made up of completely natural ingredients if you’re into the organic revolution. It’s enriched with the hydrating oils like castor, coconut, wheat germ, and carrot to provide healing and protective benefits. More than like a balm, it glides on like a smooth and soothing cream.

Khiel’s Lip Balm #1
A favorite among beauty editors, this one has made the list of top beauty products many a times. Plus, it doesn’t leave a waxy feeling on the lips. The trick with this is to apply liberally and allow its vitamin E infused formula to absorb into the lips, leaving it supple and protected.
