Today is Day 1 of my feature on the top lip balms in my personal quest to find the best lip balm for the fall/winter.
Readers may be surprised to see that my first choice is a drugstore product.
Blistex Silk and Shine retails for $3.29 at your local drugstore, and contains a twist-up stick with 0.13oz of product.
Active Ingredients: Dimethicone (2.0% W/W), Octinoxate (7.5% W/W),
Oxybenzone (2.5% W/W). Inactive Ingredients: Arachidyl Alcohol,
Arachidyl Glucoside, Beherryl Alcohol, Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2,
Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Flavor, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene,
Isobutylparaben, Isostearoyl Hydrolyzed Silk, Methylparaben, Mica,
Microcrystalline Wax, Mineral Oil, Ozokerite, Panthenyl Ethyl Ether,
Paraffin, Pentaerythrityl Tetraoctanoate, Petrolatum, Phenoxyethanol,
Phenyl Trimethicone, Polybutene, Polyethylene, Propylparaben,
PPG-5-Ceteth-20, Retinyl Palmitate, Saccharin, Titanium Dioxide,
Tocopheryl Acetate, Zea Mays (Corn) Oil.
Blistex Silk and Shine contains SPF15. I find it to leave my lips silkier than the original Blistex formula. This is a basic go-to, and one that you'll always find in my stash.
It's a bit softer than many formulas, but won't melt from being in your pocket.
