Kiss New York Peptide Pout Lip Treatment in Watermelon Review

Press Sample (Affiliate Links)

If you love hydrating tinted lip treatments, then I just discovered one that I would like to share with you. Kiss New York Peptide Pout Lip Treatment in Watermelon is a tinted lip balm that feels more like a non-sticky lip gloss, and gives enough of a watermelon pink flush that is infinitely flattering. It deposits color evenly, does not bleed, and it leaves lips soft, supple and hydrated. I do not find the scent unpleasant, or long-lasting, but if you do not like to have a taste or smell to your lip products, this may not be the best choice for you. 
According to Kiss New York,

Experience luxury lip care with the KISS NEW YORK Peptide Lip Treatment, a lip balm designed to hydrate, plump, and smooth in one effortless swipe. This advanced lip treatment infused with peptides helps reduce the appearance of fine lines while delivering a natural, fuller look to your lips. Formulated by Tripeptide-1, a skin-rejuvenating active known for its age-defying benefits, this treatment improves lip texture, elasticity, and hydration over time. Whether you're dealing with dry, cracked lips, this balm restores your pout to its softest, healthiest state. This lip gloss also includes skin-loving ingredients like Shea Butter, Castor Oil, and Squalane to deeply nourish and lock in long-lasting moisture for plumper, smoother lips that look naturally luscious and feel comforted all day long. The non-sticky formula glides on smoothly with a glossy, elegant finish that's perfect for daily wear or as a conditioning base under your favorite lip color. The cooling metal applicator adds a refreshing touch, making every application a soothing self-care moment. The Unscented and Mint scents apply clear, while the other scents offer a tinted finish for a hint of color with every swipe.
Features & Claims:

  • Peptide-rich formula instantly boosts hydration and lip volume while repairing dry, chapped lips.
  • Reduces the look of fine lines and lip wrinkles with powerful Tripeptide-1, naturally smoothing and plumping the lips.

Trader Joe's Sunscreen Lip Balm SPF 30 Review

Purchased (Unaffiliated Links)

By now, you can surely see a purchasing pattern: I go grocery shopping at Trader Joe's peruse their beauty aisle, and invariably come home with some new find(s). That is precisely what happened a few days ago when I picked up the Trader Joe's Sunscreen Lip Balm SPF 30. It wasn't as though I really needed another lip balm, but I did want one with sunscreen. It is already feeling like summer here, and as a huge proponent of sunscreen use, I really want to keep my lips as well protected as the rest of my skin. This is a very hydrating lip balm that is emollient and that has the perfect amount of cushion for comfortable wear. It contains chemical, rather than mineral, sunscreens that offer an SPF 30. It has a very light citrus aroma, but it is neither long-lasting, nor is it unpleasant. At $2.99 for 0.17 oz., it is a good deal and from a brand that you can trust. If, however, you prefer mineral to chemical sunscreens, then this lip balm isn't for you.
According to Trader Joe's,

Trader Joe’s Lip Balm protects the sensitive skin around your mouth with a smooth SPF 30 sunscreen. (SPF or “Sun Protection Factor” 30 means that just 1/30th of the burning radiation of the sun will reach your skin, when properly applied.) 

The Balm’s bright blue twist-applicator centers this sunscreen right on your smackers and also delivers moisture-locking ingredients—including beeswax, raspberry seed oil, and vitamin E—for lips that are both protected and hydrated. And its pleasant, ever-so-slight scent of citrus will make you want to use Trader Joe’s Lip Balm liberally and often, as you should! 

When you do apply this Balm 15 minutes before sun exposure, it will ensure that your lips are sealed. Then wherever you go—go there with confidence, knowing you’ve done your part to protect your lips from sunburn and the other harmful effects that can come along with sun exposure... lip, lip, hooray!!!

Active Ingredients: Avobenzone 3% - Sunscreen, Homosalate 7% - Sunscreen, Octisalate 4.5% - Sunscreen, Octocrylene 9% - Sunscreen.

Inactive Ingredients: Beeswax, Octyldodecanol, Butyloctyl Salicylate, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Octyldodecyl Neopentanoate, Punica Granatum Sterols, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Flavor (Aroma), Sodium Hyaluronate, Rubus Idaeus (Raspberry) Seed Oil, Tocopherol, Limonene, Tocopheryl Acetate, Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil.

Overall Assessment: This is an effective lip balm that hydrates even the most chapped lips and it has an SPF 30 for sun protection. This was an excellent purchase, and I will definitely repurchase it!

I leave a tube in my desk drawer and one in my purse, and I buy two at a time! This cruelty-free lip butter is worth its weight in gold for me, and I will continue buying as long as they make it!

According to Weleda,

Weleda Skin Food Lip Butter intensively nourishes even the driest, chapped lips. Leave lips feeling sublimely soft, especially in cold weather conditions, with this ultra-hydrating plant oil blend.

Trader Joe's Jelly Bean Flavored Lip Duo Review

Purchased (Unaffiliated Links)

I recently found myself with very chapped lips, and when I reached into my purse I realized that I had left my tube of lip balm in my book bag instead. I was out running a few errands, and ran into Trader Joe's to pick up a few missing ingredients, and saw the new, and limited edition, Trader Joe's Jelly Bean Flavored Lip Duo and thought why not. Normally I wouldn't choose a jelly bean flavored lip balm, but I was desperate to put something on my lips immediately, and the duo consisted of a lip balm in a convenient squeeze tube and an overnight lip mask in a little pot. 

The moment that I got back to my car, I opened the package and applied the lip balm. It doesn't overwhelm the senses with a jelly bean taste, or aroma, and is actually quite pleasant. It is super emollient, has a nice glossy finish and it lasts for quite a while. More importantly, however, it is very moisturizing and healing for dry lips. I actually use the lip mask interchangeably with the lip balm, and find that it leaves my lips soft, smooth and hydrated. Both went a long way to healing my chapped lips, and they are quite pleasant to use. 

According to Trader Joe's,

Spring has just about sprung—and with it comes the arrival of another luscious, limited-edition, candy-inspired Lip Duo! Like its Gummy Bear Flavored predecessor, Trader Joe’s Jelly Bean Flavored Lip Duo comes with one tube of Lip Balm Butter and one pot of Overnight Lip Mask. They’re both packed with some of mother nature’s finest moisturizers (like coconut oil, avocado oil, and shea butter), and they come packaged together in a cute, perfectly Easter-basket-sized gift box with a convenient, ornament-style loop on top. 

Keep the Jelly Bean Flavored Lip Balm Butter on hand for those moments when you need some midday moisture or a boost of shine, then at night, right before you drift off into dreamland, apply a generous amount of the Jelly Bean Flavored Overnight Lip Mask to help soften your smackers while you sleep. Thanks to their sweet and slightly fruity Jelly Bean flavor, lip care has never tasted so good... Quantities are limited, though, so pucker up and head to your neighborhood Trader Joe’s posthaste!

Overall Assessment: I only bought this because I was in desperate, and immediate, need of some lip balm for my very chapped lips, but I am glad that I bought it because I have been reaching for this duo regularly! They both did an impressive job healing my very chapped lips, and this duo is an excellent value since you get two lip products for $6.99.

Y'OUR Lip Balm Review

Press Sample (Affiliate Links)

Y'OUR, a personalized skincare brand that is cruelty-free and made in the USA, makes wonderfully clean and effective products, and I am thrilled to have recently discovered to their fantastic lip balm. 
About Y'OUR,

When beauty entrepreneur Jenny and a MIT data scientist Hannah discovered their shared frustration with finding the right skincare and mutual desire to help people feel their best, Y’OUR Skincare was born.

Jenny had spent years in the beauty industry—talking directly to customers about their concerns and getting past bogus claims. When she finally cured her own acne, she understood how powerful the right routine can be to transform your skin and your confidence.

As a consumer concerned about toxic ingredients, Hannah had been using her analytical skills to test and research products with natural ingredients herself—looking for the right non-harmful combinations to fix her oily t-zone and sensitive dry patches.

Together, they created a unique algorithm that’s driven by powerful AI and human insights to fully assess your skin’s needs, then create a personalized regimen that changes with you. Because they believe every person should be able to have the confidence and “I can do anything” feeling that comes with having great skin.

Y'OUR Lip Balm is a deeply moisturizing balm that works wonders on dry and chapped lips. This cruelty-free brand, which makes highly effective products, did an enviable job formulating this lip balm. It is ultra-emollient, has the perfect amount of cushion for comfortable wear, and it has the perfect thickness. It is neither sticky, nor runny, and it applies easily with the slanted tip applicator. Filled with nourishing ingredients, it locks in moisture and leaves lips soft and smooth. Furthermore, the Hyaluronic Acid offers lips sustained hydration and it gently plumps fine lines. The peppermint oil is refreshing, but it isn't in the least bit overpowering.

According to Y'OUR,

Y’OUR signature lip balm is packed with antioxidants and natural emollients to nourish dried and chapped lips. Not only does the formula create an effective barrier to lock in moisture, it also deeply hydrates for a long lasting soft and smooth lips. With intensive hydration from Hyaluronic Acid, Y'OUR Lip Balm attracts moisture to the lips to plump and helps reduce the appearance of fine lines.

Directions: Squeeze out an appropriate amount and gently swipe across the lips. Tip: Apply a thick layer before bed as a lip mask and wipe off dead skin cells with a soft towel.

Overall Assessment: I have been carrying this lip balm with me since I received it, and I reach for it more than often than any other lip balm these days. It is that good!

BeeSpa Honey Lips Hydrating Lip Masque

 
Press Sample (Unaffiliated Links)

If you have been seeking an alternative to those petroleum-based lip balms, then you may want to consider the BeeSpa Honey Lips Hydrating Lip Masque. It is cruelty-free, deeply moisturizing and it leaves chapped lips soft, smooth and comfortable. Constantly being exposed to the elements, lips are often quite vulnerable. The beeswax in Honey Lips creates a barrier around this delicate layer of skin, and therefore offers your lips protection from the elements. It does not include an SPF, but it definitely protects lips from drying out and becoming chapped. It has the thickness and consistency of a lip masque with a slight sheen to it. I have found that it delivers tangible results that live up to its claims.
About BeeSpa, 

BeeSpa™ was founded by beauty and spa visionary Diane Cook in 2012. The BeeSpa story really began more than 20 years ago when the well-known beauty and spa entrepreneur built one of the most successful spas in the Twin Cities, the Day Spa. During her years in the spa industry, Diane made it her business to seek out the best products for her clients, products that lived up to their promise of a more beautiful you.

According to BeeSpa, " A restorative lip treatment that addresses chapping and dryness. 7% beeswax and natural oils."
Ingredients
Overall Assessment: My lips look and feel so good using this masque, and I have used it at all times of the day. It is definitely worthy of your consideration if you are looking to really pamper dry and chapped lips.
