Review: Lypsyl Lip balm with Pure Swedish Beeswax

I have been wanting to do a review of Lypsyl Lip Balm  for so long. This is my all time favourite. I have been using Lypsyl lip balm for over 2 years now. I wasn't a lip balm person back then, because I'm a lazy person and I don't really like keep applying lip balm wherever I go. I think it's not a really good manner to apply lip balm in the public. I see a lot of guy doing that and I think it's kinda gay lol. Anyway, the first time I found this was at my local Superstore. I used have a really dry lip and the skin always peeling off and I think it looks ugly. I was looking for a good lip balm that would improve my lips. I'm a cheap person and wasn't really willing to spend too much on a lip balm. However, this was on sales for $3.99 or something around there. It still not cheap for a lip balm because I used to buy those $1-$2 lip balm. =P but I decided to get it anyway. Because of the beeswax. I love everything when it comes to bees or honey. It just sounds organic or natural. 

Indeed this lip balm is really moisturizing. I really like the texture. However, I'm still not a person that like to apply lip balm whenever or wherever I go, so I apply it before I go to bed. The reason for that, which happens to most people too, is you eat up the lip balm on your lips when you eat or talk and you have to keep applying every 1 or 2 hours, you have to remember of course. 

The first night I applied it on my dried lips, i found that the dried skin on my lip peeled off itself easily without making your lips bleed. I hate that when it happens. It keeps my lip really hydrating for the whole day. The lip balm is really moisturizing, some people might think it's too moist and a bit oily. Yes, I do think that way too, so I only apply it before bed time. Living in Vancouver, which is a place that's really dry in the winter, I like to apply it to sleep, another reason is the heater in my room make my lips dry too.

Another benefits I find about this lip balm is that it lightened the pigmentation of my lip. Because if your lips always get dry and you keep peeling off the dried skin on it, it will darken the colour of your lips, which isn't that good. I do realized the change after using it for this couple years. 


Looking at the description, it contains hydrogenated coconut oils, pure sweedish beeswax, organic shea butter, vitamins A and E. Then it explains why it is so moisturizing and why it can actually lightens the colour of my lips. Coconut oil helps moisturize, shea butter helps heal and protect, and vitamin E is used to help lightening dark spot. 


Lypsyl lip balm is something I always few of them as a backup because I always use before bed time. It is as important as my skincare routine. I will feel weird if I don't apply it before bed time and I would get up to apply it. 

I don't think Superstore sell them anymore but I did see them at my local Shopper Drugs Mart. Definitely check this out. I would prefer this one over any other lip balms. 5/5 for this. ^_~
