Yes, £52 is a ridiculous amount of money to spend on a lip balm. However, if you're feeling bougie, just know that this spenny lip saver comes recommended by nearly every makeup artist working in Hollywood. So while La Mer The Lip Balm (£52) won't give you lips like Angelina Jolie, it will make the lips you have soft, smooth, and perfectly prepped for any lipstick you layer on top.
