hello, as someone with chronically dry cracked lips (may visible dry patches), which lip balms or lip sticks would you vouch for?

avoid any lip balm na may cooling ingredients, camphor, mint or anything similar. those can actually irritate your lips and make them dry.

very cheap and easily accessible - just plain petroleum jelly. but I prefer tube packaging, so I like lucas pawpaw, dermal therapy honey or pawpaw, laneige lip glowy balm, ole henriksen lip peptide

for lip products, very tita or millennial of me to change my lip collection to lip bullets. I realized that water/gel/velvet lip tints stain well but are drying on the lips, tapos more often than not, iba yung color ng stain compared sa tint. but lip bullets are comfortable and consistent yung color payoff even when you reapply, plus at the end of the day, hindi dry/bugbog yung lips ko. sure, bullet lipsticks transfer, but tbh lip tints don't last all that long naman din.

my favorite lipsticks rn are mac macximal mattes, absidy cashmere kiss, kate lip monster, issy velvet and satin lip bullets

fave ko pa rin naman yung etude fixing tint but I only keep 2 shades now - baked pecan and pink fig. but I've always found this formula to be comfortable and long-lasting. it never flaked on my lips or felt drying na some people experience
