The weather in my side of the world has only two seasons--the wet and dry. During the transition form wet to dry and vice versa, I always have hard time not only with the health of the children but also my skin. For the past weeks where the weather is such a bipolar, I have been dealing with my dry lips to the point that there is always tugging effect when I apply lip product and I don't like it. Not only it looks unhealthy but also accompanied with pain because of dryness.
I am obsessed with lip products and admittedly, I have more lip products than my foundations and other make-ups. Much like eyebrows, I cannot leave the house without any lip products on. Because you know, lips is life also. Haha!
Again, I have tried a lot of lip treatments and lip masks that I have never heard of, but still nothing happened. I was really looking for local sellers of the the overnight lip mask from Laniege, but to no avail.
Then I saw Vaseline lip therapy which comes in a small jar but sadly it was sold in Divisoria, scared as hell, I wouldn't want to risk buying it because it might do harm than good in my already dry lips. But thank goodness because I found one seller online which sells the UK version. I have been treating my lips every night for almost thee weeks now and I must say, I am loving it! Dryness is gone and I have now healthy looking lips.
The product is much like any petroleum jelly but it has added Rose and Almond oil benefits to it. The texture is pretty much the same but the smell is fragrant. It smells like floral with a slight hint of sweetness to it. It also makes lips quite pinkish because the product is pink. When applied to the lips overnight, the lips feels moisturized in the morning. The reason why I am loving it.
The only downside to it is that it comes in a tin can which sometimes is hard to open and quite unsanitary as I have to poke the product with my fingers and apply it to my lips. However, what I do is that I just make sure that I sanitize my hands everytime I touch it so as to prevent cross contamination also.
This will be a must product to my skin care for me to maintain that healthy looking lips all the time.
By the way, I got this from Anne De Guzman in facebook. She sells make up products and othe skin care products. Link to her profile here: Anne De Guzman. Oh she's legit, I had several transactions with her already.
