This Seemingly Magical Drugstore Product Is An All-In-One Balm And Lip Tint

There seems to be a tradeoff in many lip products: Buy an actually affordable product that provides color but no hydration, or pay two or three times that amount for pigment and moisture, and let your wallet suffer.

And, for folks with chronically dry lips, including as a result of hard-earned age, the Julep lippie “is a great answer,” providing nourishment and color without feeling heavy or overdone.
