The harsh combination of cold weather and indoor heating can often result in dry skin and chapped lips. If this resonates with you, it might be time to upgrade your lip care routine from a simple chapstick to a more nourishing lip mask.
Beauty enthusiasts have been singing the praises of Naturium’s Phyto-Glow Lip Mask as their preferred lip care product this winter.
This intensely hydrating lip mask, available at SpaceNK for £15, provides essential moisture to restore and replenish lips. It boasts a formula enriched with shea butter, avocado and jojoba oil, along with fatty acid-rich kukui nut oil, offering excellent emollient properties to soothe and relieve dry, sensitive lips swiftly.

With an impressive rating of 4.6 out of 5 stars, customers are raving about the texture and long-lasting effects of the mask. One satisfied user shared: “I’m allergic to most lip products so it’s hard to find one that really nourishes my lips that isn’t too goopy or so thick that it doesn’t soak in. This Naturium lip mask is perfect and it has a subtle, pleasant vanilla scent. It’s thin enough to soak in well and it’s not sticky, it soothes my irritated and chapped winter lips better than any other products I’ve found.”
Another pleased customer wrote: “I have found myself reaching for this mask over my many lip balms, especially as the weather gets colder. As this mask is thick, you don’t need much of it so I imagine it will last me through winter. Would definitely repurchase”, reported Liverpool Echo.
The star component of this sought-after lip mask is stearyl glycyrrhetinate, which originates from licorice root extract and boasts properties that can contribute to more “even-tone” and lips that appear healthier. Reacting to the product, one user offered a mixed review, noting: “While I love the texture, I’ve found its effect not super long lasting – more like a lip balm during the day. It’s a shame but I will still happily use it up.”
A consumer drew comparisons between the Naturium lip mask and the pricier £21 Laneige lip mask, deeming the former “way better” for both efficacy and cost, while also expressing: “I just wish they could make this product in a tube because I’m not a fan of sticking my fingers in the jar and on my lips when I’m out. I would also love to see a tinted version of this.”
It seems Naturium may have taken suggestions onboard as their Phyto-Glow Lip Balm is available in clear and tinted varieties for £12 each at retailers such as SpaceNK and Boots.
For those inclined towards lip care with natural elements, Tata Harper’s Lip Creme shouldn’t go unnoticed. With options ranging from the clear-coloured Bare to tints like Blase, Bubbly, Juicy, and Risque, this creme offers a compromise between a balm and lipstick, providing a plush, ultra-plumped effect and a glossy satin finish. They are stocked at Cult Beauty at £38.
Tatcha’s Kissu Lip Mask, priced at £27, has Molly-Mae Hague posting about the product saying “day made”. The reality star was thrilled to announce that her favourite lip product now comes in a handy squeezy tube – The Kissu Lip Treatment, which can be purchased from Sephora for £42.
