Get answers to your top lip care questions—like how to treat chapped lips, protect from sun damage, and choose the best natural lip balm.
You can apply lip products as often as your lips need love, but we typically recommend 2–4 times a day. If they feel dry, tight, or flaky, apply a balm or treatment to help hydrate and protect. Reapply more often in dry or windy conditions.

Yes! A good lip balm or treatment can soothe, hydrate, and repair dry or chapped lips. Look for ingredients like shea butter, jojoba oil, and coconut oil, and gently exfoliate lips to remove flakes before moisturizing for best results.
Use a lip balm with SPF 15 or higher to help shield your lips from UV rays. Reapply throughout the day, especially after eating, drinking, or swimming. Sun protection is key to keeping lips soft, smooth, and healthy year-round.
Skip harsh ingredients like menthol, camphor, phenol, or synthetic fragrances, which can dry or irritate your lips. If your lips are sensitive, go for gentle formulas with clean, nourishing ingredients that lock in moisture without causing a reaction.
Vegan and cruelty-free doesn’t always mean better for sensitive skin, but they often have simpler, gentler formulas. Always check the ingredient list and look for soothing botanicals and no added fragrance if you’re prone to irritation.
Petroleum jelly forms a barrier to help lock in moisture, but it doesn’t actually hydrate. That’s why eos lip products are 100% natural, paraben-free, and petroleum-free. For everyday lip care, look for products that both moisturize and protect, especially with nourishing natural oils or butters.
