I absolutely love it when I can share that I’ve personally tried the same beauty products that celebrities use on the red carpet. Recently, I was over the moon when Sabrina Carpenter’s makeup artist revealed the lineup of products that contributed to her stunning look at the Grammys. Among the impressive assortment, one of my all-time favorite products made the cut.
I’m referring to the Aquaphor Lip Repair Ointment, which makeup artist Carolina Gonzalez applied to Sabrina’s lips prior to layering on the lipstick. Sabrina sported Prada’s Monochrome Lipstick, specifically the shade Tiepolo, with the B11 Alabaster strategically placed in the center of her lips for that eye-catching touch.
What’s remarkable about Aquaphor is that I initially discovered it somewhat by accident; I borrowed it from my husband, who had been recommended this miracle worker by his dermatologist due to his struggles with dry, cracked lips during the harsh winter months. Now, I can’t imagine my lip care routine without it!
For those in the UK, you can snag this gem on Amazon for £9.49, while US beauty aficionados can find it at Walmart for the fantastic price of $5.24.
I truly appreciate that Aquaphor is flavor-free, although it does have a mild taste that doesn’t bother me at all. It’s also free from fragrances and parabens, which is a huge plus for those who are conscious about the ingredients they put on their skin. Most importantly, I can confidently say that this ointment has kept my lips perfectly smooth and hydrated throughout the winter, preventing any issues with dryness or cracking. It’s a staple in my beauty arsenal that I wholeheartedly recommend!
