Dr. Lipp Original Nipple Balm for Lips - 0.5 oz. Customer Reviews

I've been using Lansinoh on my lips for 12 years -- it's the same product (but marketed to breastfeeding mothers for their nipples). You get 1.4 ounces for about $6-$9 (depending on the store --grocery, Target, WalMart, etc.), instead of this puny 1/2 ounce size for $14. If you want a small size for your purse, just squeeze some into an empty lipgloss pot, put it in the microwave until it melts into liquid; put it in the fridge until it hardens again and -- voila! -- you have the perfect lipbalm/gloss. It's the best thing out there for your lips, hands down. I swear by it and would never use anything else.

I've tried so many lip balms and glosses, and have my favorites already, so I was not excited to receive this in my box. However, after trying it a few times, it really grew on me. It's super thick you squeeze it and it comes out as an almost solid tube of balm, that's almost too solid to spread. As it warms, it spreads more easily. What I love about it, is that this thickness makes it last. I've started to use it at bedtime, after putting on my moisture mask and eye creams, and it's like a final step of overnight protection for my lips. Especially when I have congestion and I'm breathing through my mouth. I wake up with it still on, my lips protected all night. I'll definitely be buying a full size to replace my sample.

It's great. Really great. I just wish I'd realized that it really is just 100% lanolin which you can totally buy for a LOT cheaper. I've seen it for less than half this price for a bigger tube at target. Really, you are just paying for branding here. Oh well! I like it, I just feel like I got duped.

I have tried every chapstick/lip balm available and nothing compares to this. Moisturizes thoroughly and stays on longer than anything else I have tried. If I squeeze out too much I just massage my cuticles with the excess and it works great for that as well. I haven't tried it on my nipples yet but I imagine it would work very well for those too.

This is too sticky, leaves a mess. It’s thick consistency makes it hard to rub in as well.

This product is super thick. It advertises use on cuticles, lips, and dry skin, but I don't see it being possible to put this on your skin without feeling how heavy and sticky it is. It was heavy on my lips, I can't imagine it on my skin.

I would foresee this product being excellent for chapped lips but I live in Florida where chapped lips is not an issue for me personally.

This product is moisturizing, just not too sure about use on the cuticles. I tried it on my nail beds and was not too impressed...

It moisturizes well and I don’t feel like I have to keep reapplying. Goes on like a thicker, verging on sticky, Vaseline. Hard to get out of the container if it gets cold because it becomes incredibly thick. Will probably stick to my regular brand

So, I struggle with CONSTANT peeling lips, so thin or waxy formulas have never really for me. This felt thick, but not waxy, and very rich. My lips felt great while using it. No chemical smell like other glosses either. Definitely recommend.
