- A two-pack was recently on sale for just over $8, keeping the celeb-approved balm near the $5 range per tube.

What lip balm does Erika Jayne call a forever staple?
According to Page Six, the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star singled out Aquaphor Lip Repair while sharing must-haves with The Strategist.
Despite her Beverly Hills lifestyle, Jayne still reaches for the drugstore beauty buy. She said she has tried just about everything for moisturizing lips and that very few products come close to Aquaphor.
The multitasking pitch is part of the appeal. “You can use it on your cuticles, you can use it on your heels, you can use it on your lips,” the Bravo star added.
Why does Erika Jayne swear by Aquaphor Lip Repair?
Jayne framed the balm as a long-running essential, not a one-off endorsement. Page Six noted she has used the Lip Repair for years and still ranks it above most moisturizing options she has tested.
The product’s formula is built around shea butter, vitamins C and E, and chamomile aimed at dry lips. It is sold as a single pack or an SPF version, and shoppers have flooded listings with strong reviews — more than 14,000 five-star ratings and praise for fast relief on chapped, cracked lips.
Fans of the brand in her orbit may recognize the loyalty. Jayne previously told Page Six Style she uses tubes of Aquaphor’s Advanced Therapy Healing Ointment as stocking stuffers.
What else did Erika Jayne recommend on break from tour?
While taking a break from touring with Kesha, Jayne also name-checked other favorites with The Strategist. Those picks included La Roche-Posay’s Lipikar Eczema Cream and D.S. & Durga’s Jazmín Yucatan perfume.
When she is not filming “RHOBH,” Jayne also works as DJ Pretty Mess. Her beauty chat still landed on an accessible staple: a purse-and-bedside balm that costs less than a typical New York City latte when bought in a sale two-pack.

Is the $5 Aquaphor balm actually worth the buzz?
The price point is the viral hook. Page Six highlighted a two-pack on sale for just over $8, making each tube an easy, celeb-approved add for dry-lip days without a luxury markup.
Customer feedback cited in the report calls the balm a lifesaver for dry, chapped lips, with users noting nearly immediate relief, hours of moisture, and faster healing than other products they tried.
Jayne’s quote keeps the pitch simple: after trying almost everything, she still comes back to Aquaphor. That combination of star loyalty, multitasking use, and drugstore pricing is why the tip is traveling beyond Bravo fans.
