Product Description

Nivea Original Care Caring Lip Balm 4.8g

Nivea Original Care Lip Balm is an everyday stick for dry, tight or chapped lips. It's made with shea butter and natural oils, goes on clear without feeling greasy or sticky, and Nivea says it keeps lips moisturised for up to 24 hours. The 4.8g stick is small enough for a pocket or bag, so it's easy to reapply when winter wind or dry indoor air catches you out.

The formula is mineral oil free and described by Nivea as dermatologically approved and suitable for all skin types, including sensitive lips. It works on its own for a natural finish or under lipstick as a smooth, hydrating base. If you know you react to particular ingredients, check the full ingredient list on the pack first.

Key Features:

  • Up to 24 hours of moisture, according to Nivea
  • Made with shea butter and natural oils
  • Mineral oil free formula
  • Clear, non-sticky finish that works alone or under lipstick
  • Pocket-size 4.8g stick for daily use.

How it works

Lips have no oil glands of their own, so they lose moisture quickly in cold wind, central heating or dry air. A balm like this sits on the surface and softens the skin with emollient ingredients such as shea butter and avocado oil. It also forms a light protective layer that slows further moisture loss.

Ingredients:

The key ingredients are sunflower seed wax (Helianthus Annuus Seed Cera), shea butter (Butyrospermum Parkii Butter) and avocado oil (Persea Gratissima Oil). The wax gives the stick its structure, while the shea butter and avocado oil soften and nourish. This is the highlighted list from the product description, so check the pack for the complete ingredient list.

How to Use:

  • Apply to your lips as often as needed through the day.
  • For best results, smooth on a thin layer before going outdoors or before bed.
  • Wear it alone, or apply it under lipstick as a hydrating base.
  • Click the cap shut after use to keep the balm clean and fresh.

Frequently asked questions

Does Nivea Original Care Lip Balm contain mineral oil?

No, according to Nivea it is a mineral oil free formula. Its highlighted ingredients are sunflower seed wax, shea butter and avocado oil. If you avoid particular ingredients, check the full list on the pack.

How long does the moisture last?

Nivea states it keeps lips moisturised for up to 24 hours. In real use, eating, drinking and licking your lips wear a balm away, so reapply whenever your lips feel tight or dry.

Is it suitable for sensitive lips?

Nivea describes it as dermatologically approved and gentle for all skin types, including sensitive lips. If you have a known allergy to plant-derived ingredients such as shea butter, or your lips are sore or cracked, check the ingredients and ask a pharmacist before using it.

Can I wear it under lipstick?

Yes, it has a clear, weightless finish that works as a hydrating base under lipstick. Give it a minute to settle before applying colour.

Does it contain SPF?

The product information we have doesn't list an SPF, so don't rely on it for sun protection. In strong sun, use a lip product that states its SPF on the pack.

What if my lips stay dry or cracked even with regular use?

Persistent dryness, cracking or soreness that doesn't improve after a week or two is worth checking with a pharmacist or GP. Ongoing cracking at the corners of the mouth or lips can have causes a balm alone won't fix.
