Diamonds are a girl’s best friend, and lip balms come in a close second. As far as I can remember, a lip balm has always held my company since 6th grade. A very common phenomenon, this lip balm craze is the beginning of every girl’s makeup stash which then transforms into a lipstick hoard. Don’t get me wrong, we still dearly love our lip balms as adults, we just metamorphize cute and dandy lip balms for intense lip treatments. After all, our body’s collagen production has lowered since our teen years, work and college hustle have us missing our hydration breaks, and we’re still on the lookout for a plump pout. Our solution? Gorgeous luxuries that pamper our lips to the max.
