A single lip balm is something you buy when you happen to need it — not something you give as a present. As a set of two the picture changes: it works as a small gift, it covers both characters, and anyone keeping it has one stick at home and one for out and about. That is the most common reason lip balm goes missing: it always sits exactly where you are not.

Lips have no sebaceous glands and therefore no oil film of their own. That is why they dry out faster than the rest of the skin — in winter from cold and heated air, in summer from sun and wind. A balm lays a layer over them that slows moisture loss. Regularity matters more than quantity: better a thin application several times than one thick one.

Reaching for the stick only once the lips are already cracked is too late — and licking your lips in between makes it worse, because saliva takes additional moisture with it as it evaporates. Together the two create the familiar cycle of reapplying and drying out again. The way out is unspectacular: start early, apply regularly, leave the lips alone.

Take Care is a French manufacturer that designs care and beauty products under licence — from Hello Kitty through Barbapapa to Disney. The approach is always the same: simple products you need daily, in packaging you are happy to leave lying around. From this brand the shop also carries hand creams, sheet masks, hot water bottles and plasters.

Mickey and Minnie have worked as a pair since they first appeared together in 1928. That is exactly why a set of two makes more sense here than with other motifs: the two belong together, and the set reflects that. If you only like one character, you give the other away — that is a legitimate use as well.

As a small present among friends, as an addition to a larger gift, as advent calendar filling or for your own handbag. Also suitable for children from school age who are starting to have their own care products.

• Wind the stick all the way back before closing, otherwise the cap squashes the balm.
• Do not leave it in the car — in the heat the balm softens and runs out of the tube.
• Apply before going out in winter, not only once the lips already feel tight.
• Keep the two sticks in two places, then one is always within reach.
• Replace the stick after a cold, just as you would change a toothbrush.
