Dr. Lipp CBD Calm Balm

The season is upon us.

The season of chapped lips and wind-whipped bits. And just in time, this lands on our desk, from a Beauty Bible Award-winning beauty name. Dr. Lipp CBD Calm Balm is a brand new addition to their original ‘nipple balm’ line-up, however, tapping into the trend for CBD products.

And it’s really rather a godsend. What we like: the angled tip, for easy application to lips. The texture: quite rich and (yes) balm-y – a great barrier against the bluster currently rattling our windows. (Because of that texture, it stays put, too – unlike many balms which our lips seem to ‘eat’, in minutes.) We also like that it’s 100% natural, and 100% good at soothing skin. Technically, Dr. Lipp suggest it can be used on any sore or irritated bits, not just lips.

As for the CBD? It’s from the non-psychoactive part of the cannabis plant, of course, so we’re not wafting around singing that we’re all going to San Francisco with flowers in our hair, after applying it. (You might have to be of a certain age to get that one, but hey, ho.) However, CBD oil is recognised for its soothing action on skin – and here, it’s further enhanced by a formula that’s 50% lanolin, an ingredient we love for the way it shields skin.

Definitely one for the coat pocket. Hurricanes, gales, sea breezes: we’re ready for you.
