Pretty By Critty

I'm really curious to know what do you girls use for the daily lipcare regimen? Any night treatments or special stuff that you use for the lips? How often should I exfoliate them?

I only exfoliate my lips when they are dry and peeling. I use a bit of Vaseline on an old toothbrush and lightly rub them. I found it works best after a shower. That's pretty much my only lip routine besides lip balm. I like moisturizing lipsticks and glosses, I hate the dried out feeling. My fave lip balm is Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15 http://sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P570... which is ridiculously expensive, so I only treatment self about once a year. I only apply it once a day, the rest of the time I use Lobello from the drug store. Great question, i am interested to see what other people are doing for their lips ...

i don't really do anything too special for my lips......i always put lip balm under l/s & l/g........and i exfoliate them with sugar & olive oil whenever they get rough.........HTH!!!

lol, i go crazy when it comes to lipcare.. i love trying and buying the newest stuff around, and only use hydrating lipsticks or moisturizing lip glosses..
my favourite lip balms are from The Body Shop (god i love those lip butters.. they're really moisturizing and smell great, but look quite white if you apply too much.. not a good look), the Vitamin E chapstick (it has also SPF 15), and also the Hemp lip balm.. these would be my practical, yummy choices.
But for the most intense results, I always use Nutrilogie Levres, from Vichy.. it comes in a little tube, it has a cream consistency and a great hydrating power, i always try not to run out of it.. :)
Anyway, I have also tried and liked the lip balms from Lush (Honey Trap is my favourite), Carmex (this is really good.. and soothing), and Yves Rocher (the coconut and vanilla balm.. it's incredibile. not only deeply moisturizing, but it's great for getting a nude lip. and tastes great!).

Aww, another thing. the last, I promise :D In the summertime, I use an extra lip balm with the highest SPF I can find.. now i have one from Piz Buin, and it goes on really well. SPF 20 and a lovely vanilla scent, also very moisturizing.

I have tried Nutrilogie Levres, it is great in the winter! It's a weird texture to get use to, but it works really well on super chapped lips. I also like ROC lip balm, sometimes they have it on sale 2 for 1 so I stock up!

indeed, it takes a little while to get used to the.. not entirely gel, not entirely buttery, neither creamy also feel, but i like it.. and the sheen that it leaves on the lips, feels light :)

another lipcare product I like but forgot to mention is the fragranced vaseline with vitamin E from Agatha Ruiz de la Prada.. i got all the 6 kinds that were available here, and loved them all! but this tins in which the product comes into are.. huge! 15 ml each.. opened them all, and i was afraid i won't be able to finish them till the deadline (12 months after opening the tin) so gave a few to some of my friends.. Passion fruit, Raspberry and Papaya are my favourites :)
not only that they're super-adorable, but they do a good job softening the lips. :D

Mmmm, those sound nice!

yeah.. but they look even nicer :)

and my favourite, the passion fruit scented one..

oh my goooood... girls, you have to try the Cocoa Butter stick from The Body Shop.. they're not too expensive and they're absolutely divine. They literally have chocolate taste, and leave a soft sheen on your lips.. apply them overnight and I'll promise you'll wake up with the softest lips in the world. And it is also light, doesnt feel heavy on your lips..
I like it more than the Vit E chapstick from TBS.

Oooo, that sounds goooood!!! :)

I've been using the Bourjois Baume de Nuit before I go to bed and I love it. I sleep with my mouth open and have woken up with dry cracked lips for years. When I use this my lips are still moist in the morning.

I love sugar and honey scrubs, it works wonderful and it tastes delicious. Other then that I don't do too much. besides using burts bees tons.
