Do your lips seem to be perpetually dry? Same! They still get chapped even though I try to drink lots of water. So, like you, I’m on the hunt for the best lip balms for dry lips available in the Philippines!

What ingredients make a good lip balm?

Skincare, including lip care, is still very personal. So what may work for someone may not work for you and vice versa. But there *are* some ingredients that you can keep an eye on because they’ve been proven to be effective in giving the lips the hydration it needs.

Honey is a great ingredient for lip balms because it’s a humectant, which means it attracts moisture. Honey is also known to have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties so it’s great if your lips are extremely chapped to the point of flaking off — no nasty infections with this ingredient in your lip balm.

Butters like shea and cocoa are great for keeping the lips enveloped with moisture.

Good ol’ petroleum jelly is, well, good! It traps in moisture and helps heal chapped lips.

Got discoloration on your lips or you just want protection on top of moisture? Look for zinc oxide or titanium oxide — these help block UV rays.

Now, you have a good idea of what to look for in lip balms for dry lips! But you don’t really need to lift a finger to search further because I’ve narrowed it down for you. Here are the 12 best ones you can get in the Philippines.
