Best Products for Nourishing Dry, Cracked Lips

The Inkey List Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm

According to The Inkey List, this lip balm is "clinillay proven to plump lips by up to 40% in 4 weeks." It features a tripeptide complex to increase lip volume as well as ultra filling hyaluronic acid spheres to hydrate and fill lines. It's not too thick and doesn't contain added fragrances (good to note if you have sensitive skin!). This one is a great pick, for both the quality and the price!

Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment

Hailey Bieber's skincare brand, Rhode, released some of the best lip balms we've ever tried. The Peptide Lip Treatment comes in three mouthwatering scents as well as an unscented version. Applying these balms feels like luxury and they're sure to add hydration, naturally plump with peptides, and lock in moisture for hours on end. My favorite is the salted caramel!

If you're looking to add a little color, try the Peptide Lip Tints — if you can get your hands on them, that is!
