Our managing editor’s secret to ‘noticeably softer’ lips is on sale for October Prime Day

Just call it saving money 101.

Here at Page Six, we could teach a masterclass on how to make the most out of Prime Days — and this year, one of our top picks from the sale is Lanolips 101 Ointment Duo.

While the Australian beauty brand’s hero product ostensibly has 101 uses, our managing editor, Ally D’Aluisio, finds it especially effective for chapped lips.

“The Sahara Desert has nothing on my lips,” she writes, explaining she’s tried everything from pricey treatments to drugstore staples over the years to no avail — until she found Lanolips.

“I apply [the 101 Ointment] every night before bed and when I wake up in the morning, my lips are noticeably softer and more hydrated,” she said. “It doesn’t just put a bandage on the larger issue of dryness; it actually encourages the dead skin to slough off so a soft, plump surface remains.”

She continued, “My obsession with the salve runs so deep that I probably have 10 tubes open and being used at any given time.”

In addition to the original, clear and flavorless favorite, the tinted and raspberry-scented versions of the balm are marked down at the moment.

“I knew the world didn’t need another lip balm, but I think the world did need a better lip balm,” brand founder Kirsten Carriol told us of the lanolin-based formula.

Editors aren’t alone in keeping several tubes on hand;  Lindsay Lohan told the Post’s Alexa it keeps her lips “so hydrated,” while Bethenny Frankel, Gigi Hadid and Alicia Keys have all name-dropped it over the years.
