Lip Balm With Menthol

• Burt's Bees

Menthol is the substance in mint that gives it its cooling sensation. It's included in many personal care products y cosméticos because it helps you feel fresh and clean. When added to lip balm, menthol has a soothing effect that helps improve your comfort by reducing pain.

Menthol lip balms may aid healing of chapped lips, cold sores and other common conditions, as menthol helps kill bacteria and fungi to keep your lips clean. It also has an anti-inflammatory effect that helps limit swelling, redness and other symptoms while your immune system heals the injury to your lips.

You can use lip balms with menthol several times a day. Many products are suitable for use whenever you need them, making them one of the most convenient products for managing dry or peeling lips.

Most lip balms are solid sticks that you can glide across the shape of your lips like lápiz labial to apply the product smoothly and coat every surface easily. These products have a good hydration level suitable for most needs, and you don't have to touch them with your fingers, reducing the risk of contamination.

Extremely dry lips can benefit from a heavier cream-based menthol lip balm, such as  Carmex. Because Carmex has other soothing ingredients, such as beeswax and camphor, it may be more effective for severe chapping or peeling. 

To apply lip balms from jars, wash your hands first, then take a pea-sized amount on your fingertip. Trace the product across your lips by hand, then press your lips together a few times to help it absorb. If you don't want to touch the product, you can use a lip brush, such as the e.l.f. small angled brush for neater application.
