Grid two is balms by the handful. The Lip Balm Trio comes in a reusable tin, and the Lip Service Duo pairs Mint and Shea. The Summer Splash squad and the Balm Squad each hold four balms, the second set built on the bestselling Intense Therapy formula in limited holiday treat-inspired aromas. The brand lists avobenzone and octinoxate as the sun filters in the Intense Therapy formula, petrolatum to prevent water loss, and shea butter and avocado oil for softness, so the Intense Therapy balms in these sets work as an spf 25 lip balm on a long day outside. What I like about buying in sets is that you stop losing balm. One goes in the truck, one in the gym bag, one on the desk, one in a jacket pocket. Try this: put a fresh one in each place on the same day, and use the tin for the flavor you like least, since you will still finish it.

Grid three goes beyond the tin. Jack Black's Face and Lip SPF Set pairs a Double-Duty Face Moisturizer SPF 20 with the Intense Therapy balm in Mint and Shea Butter, so the face and mouth get the same daily cover. Kiehl's traces back to a single pharmacy on Third Avenue in New York in 1851, and its Ultra Meltdown is a lip gel built on glycerin and dimethicone. Fresh started in 1991 in Boston with a handmade soap, and its Sugar Advanced Therapy balm is described as clinically shown to improve the look of damaged lips. Augustinus Bader grew out of a wound gel that the Leipzig stem-cell scientist developed in 2008, and The Lip Balm carries his TFC8 blend. What I would skip is picking at chapped skin and then reaching for a balm with menthol. Let the gel or the plain balm do the slow work, and see a doctor if lips stay sore or split.

New to this, I would start with one Intense Therapy tube in the flavor that sounds least like a candy shop, and keep it where you already reach for your keys. Then decide if you want a gel at night or the SPF in the truck. The nicest thing about this edit is how little it asks of you. Pick one, use it daily, and let the tin and the tube handle the rest.

Lip balm is the easy way into Jack Black, and the rest of the line is the obvious next step. If you want more tins, the Blackberry, Grapefruit and Natural Mint & Shea Butter Intense Therapy are on this shelf, and Kiehl's Since 1851 Lip Balm, MALIN and GOETZ Mojito and Le Labo Lip Balm are the alternatives. For the face, the Jack Black Turbo Wash, the Pure Clean Daily Facial Cleanser and the Face Buff Energizing Scrub make a plain morning routine. Add the Oil Free Sunguard SPF 45 on days you are outside, and the Post Shave Cooling Gel after shaving. Keep a lip balm in your jacket and a cleanser by the sink, and you have covered the day. What I would skip: the Tom Ford Ombré Leather body spray if you only came for skin care.
