Lip Service


One of you asked me about lip balm, specifically a lip balm that was light and non-waxy, and matte, and I was thinking what's the point? I always thought a lip balm should form a heavy film, a physical barrier, and be richly moisturising. What do you guys think? I like Sisley's Nutritive Lip Balm (it's about $80, possibly the cheapest item in their catelogue) for its tenacity and soothing thickness. There's no other way to describe this: It's sticky, it's there and it lasts. Smooth some on and it lasts a five-course dinner, a wintery walk, a six-star kiss, an eight-hour night.
