Good lip balm while working out?

[LeanneM]

Hi everyone,

I've been lurking for awhile on the forum, and have finally decided to start posting a bit! I'm amazed at the wealth of everyone's knowledge, and at how helpful and kind everyone is!

My question is: can anyone recommend a good, thick lip balm that stays put while working out? I've got perpetually dry lips, and nothing seems to stay on when I start sweating. When I take my water breaks during Cathe's videos, I'm also constantly having to put on more lip balm.

I tried searching the forums already, but most of the recommendations were for thinner, everyday products.

Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions!

Leanne,
Glad you decided to jump in and post.

I like Aquaphor for my lips. It's made by Eucerin. It's good, too, for any esp. dry patches and for preventing chafing. Good stuff!

Hi Cathy,

I've heard of Aquaphor being used on the lips, but have never given it a try. Thanks so much for the suggestion!!

Hi Cheetah,

Do you use the regular Burt's Bees in a tube or is there another kind out there?

Thanks for the response!!

I second the Aquaphor recommendation,, it really, really works. But, when I don't want to lug a tub of it around with me, I use ChapStick Lip Moisturizer SPF 15. It's in a blue tube and it truly moisturizes and is soft on my lips, rather than hard. I have a million tubes of it all over--in my office, in my purse, in my car, in my kitchen, just about everywhere. I can't be without my lip balm!

I also use Burt's Bees - pomegranate - lip balm and I love it.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for the great recommendations! I might pick up a tube/pot of each and try them all out! My chapped lips should soon be happy!

I like carmex. I feel naked without it.

I found Palmer's Cocoa Butter in a stick/tube. It's good for any dry skin, but my stick is strictly for my lips. I love it.

A little pricier than Chap Stick, but definitely worth it: Kiehl's Lip Balm #1 (in the tub, it lasts forever). I've been using this for years & love it!!

Also, Smith's Rosebud Salve. You can get from Sephora (either online or the store). About $5.

Both stay on really well w/o feeling sticky.

Keep smiling & sweating!

I'm addicted to Burt's Bees in the tube...

I love Burt's Bees honey in the tube.

I had the same problem and I finally gave up on lip balm because of it. I use Maybelline Shiny-licous lip gloss which stays on forever and has a really nice applicator.

Hi all,

Thanks SO much for the great suggestions! I'll pick up some of them to see which ones work best. I'm a lip product junkie, so it'll be fun to experiment with them!

Thanks again!
