Affordable Products to Help and Prevent Chapped Lips

Winter is not only a rough time on skin, but it is also a rough time on lips. The cold and the wind can take its toll and can leave lips feeling dry and chapped and looking flaky. Some lip products can cost a large amount of money and leave you with the same great results as lower priced items. If you are looking to escape from having chapped lips, or prevent it before it happens, here are some great quality and inexpensive lip products to help you.

Blistex makes great products for whatever type of lip protection you are looking for. Blistex Ultra Protection Lip Balm is very inexpensive but does its job fabulously. It has six protectants to prevent against sun, cold and wind damage and contains SPF 30. This is a product suitable to use on sensitive lips and it is also water resistant. Being very small, it fits right into any size purse or pocket. The price is $2.99 from Amazon.com.

Some of the products by Philosophy can smell too sugary and sweet but this isn't one of those products. Philosophy's Kiss Me Exfoliating Lip Scrub exfoliates all of the dry, flaky skin on your lips that can not only be annoying but doesn't look very pretty either. It has natural oils and butters that leaves your lips soft and smooth. The price is $15.00 from Bloomingdales.com.

Neutrogena isn't known for its fancy packaging and eye catching displays, however they are known for products that work. The no frills products give you exactly what you ask for. The Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Lip Rejuvenating Treatment contains SPF 20, softens and smoothes lips and has no artificial colors. The price is $16.99 from Drugstore.com.

Shea butter is what most people run for when it comes to healing dry and damaged skin on your body, so why not use it on your lips? The Shea Butter Lip Balm Stick from L'Occitane not only repairs lips but moisturizes them. If you are looking for a product with a more sweet smelling scent that also protects and nourishes your lips, L'Occitane also offers Vanilla Fondant Lip Gloss, which has the scent of dried vanilla beans. Both products are available on the L'Occitane website, each for $10.00.

Lip protection during any season is important, especially during Winter's harsh weather. Protect your lips and have them not only feeling great but also looking beautiful.
