H.I.P.


This product is something I've started to use on an everyday basis. I'm not one who uses much (if any) makeup daily, but my personal opinion is that if you do have to use makeup but want to keep it simple, all you really need is some simple lip gloss. Everything else looks overrated if worn every day. I use L'Oreal HIP Jelly Balm, which comes in a tiny little case that's easy to carry in my school bag! Plus, since it's from HIP, the bright, vibrant color ensures that it's not like the other clear, colorless balms out there, but it soothes my lips just like any other balm does. The one problem I've heard through product reviews and never thought of myself: it has absolutely no SPF protection. If your skin is sensitive and prone to sun damage, you may want to think twice before using it. However, for all the rest of you, I'd definitely recommend it for the $9 price (see title link). Oh, and make sure to buy it in the Ripe shade. It's the most natural-looking one, I think, although that varies a bit depending on natural lip tone.
