Review- Lip balms/moisturisers


I have been getting very dry lips for the past few months, so over time i purchased a good few lip balms to try an find something that really works. These are just a small amount of the ones i've tried so far..
(from left to right)

-Coconut moisturising lip balm: I bought this from Penny's for like one or two euro, i wasnt expecting much from this being so cheap, but it not too bad, its quite moisturising an smells so delicious! Drys on the lips very quickly so needed to reapply fairly often. 6/10

-Vaseline: I have used this for a long time, usually aways carry one small tin in my handbag. It cost 1.99.
It feels nourishing an smells lovely and has a rosy tint but i dont think its great for chapped lips, i felt it dryed them out even more. However is still like to use this when my lips are ok for that bit of moisturisng. 5/10

-Chap.ice: I bought this in a chemist over a month ago for 2.99 an love it! i can't say enough about it. Its a very rich lip moisturiser, smells a bit like menthol. Its quite a thick formula, which i personally prefer as it lasts for ages on the lips, so rich you can really feel it working, my lips dont feel chapped an are very soft for a lot longer than other lip products i've used. 10/10

-Blistex med plus: I was recommended this by a few people, i think it cost around 4 euro. But i was so disappointed in this product. It smells awful, a bit like cough medicine, very off putting! Its a thin consistancy almost oily feel to it and because of this it doesn't last 2 minutes on the lips..! an then makes them feel even more dry than usual. This is meant to be specifically for very dry chapped lips but this is by far the worst lip product i have ever used.. 1/10
