EADEM Site →Amazon →Sephora →SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
EADEM's Le Chouchou lip balm is a highly pigmented, glossy formula that several creators call the most nourishing vegan lip balm they've used, with a metal applicator and a sweet scent. Professional makeup artist Nikki La Rose says it "stays on your lips so long" and is ideal for those tired of reapplying, while Amanda Z notes the pigmented shades can cling to severely dry lips and the glossy texture may not sink in as much. Abbey Yung, who tested over 60 lip balms, ranks it her number one for its cushy, moisturizing feel.
