Carmex Lip Balm

I've always had issues with my lips being cracked, dry, sore and chapped until I discovered this product. Seriously can't rave about this product enough. It feels wonderful. Does everything a lip balm should do and I wouldn't be without it. Very reasonably priced and lasts for ages too. I always keep one in my handbag.

I was a little apprehensive to try this after reading mixed reviews but I must say... it isn't too bad at all. Lips feel soft for hours but I can still feel the dry skin underneath. It smells vanilla to start then as you apply it it has a minty sort of flavour. The feel... cool and tingly, non tacky and non greasy. I am still a little unsure if I like the tingly chill, but otherwise it is a good lip balm. I still prefer my trusty balm I was using prior, but would be happy to add this one to my handbag.

Got given this and was unsure if I even wanted it.. has an unusual smell and once applied it has a funny taste but then it kind of goes minty and is quite nice.. In terms of treating my lips its actually really good... if my lips are getting dry this will smooth them up quick! Will re-buy.

I love Carmex as a lip balm! have just recently begun using and have used it everyday, it smells good, is very moisturising and has a cooling effect when you first put it on your lips which I love as I can feel it working! Its on a par with Lucas' Paw Paw ointment for me! which is a huge compliment because I loooove Lucas' Paw Paw!

Lipbalm is one of the things i'm changing up all the time. I never have chapped lips but I like my lips moisturised and non-sticky afterwards. Carmex in the tube made my lips to glossy which I didn't like. But I definitely do like Carmex in the pot and would recommend this one over the other two types. The thicker balm made my lips feel like they were being properly cared for which I loved.

I hadn't ever heard of this brand and wouldn't have ever used it as I tend to stick with brands I know or ones that are recommended to me.

I was lucky enough to receive this as a freebie and it reminded me a little of Blistex's lip balms - that tingly sensation.

I'm not overwhelmed by the scent but I really love that tingling sensation and I do feel like it moisutrises and smoothes out my lips. I carry this in my handbag at all times and I will be repurchasing this again even though I don't like the smell.

This product is a miracle in a tube I swear. I love the original and the cherry scents, I exfoliate my lips and then apply a generous amount of this all over and within seconds my lips are feeling refreshed and slightly tingly. This acts as a perfect base before applying lipstick as it's slightly tacky and has fully moisturised my lips which is great for a matte lippy over top! Definitely recommend to anyone who has severely dry or chapped lips, it's a miracle worker and I am yet to find anything else as fantastic.

This is probably one of least favourite lip balms. Personally, I find it makes my lips almost too glossy and plumped up and I already have very full lips so just end up looking a bit silly. It has a horrible smell - I can literally smell it a mile off. Personally I prefer balms with a bit more of a subtle smell.. And it is just sooo sticky. However, when I do manage to leave it on long enough, it does really moisturise dry, sore, cracked lips so in that sense, it's a good product. Oh, and the sensation I also find really burn-y. It's a very strong tingle; way more so than the blistex balms which have a subtle tingle for a few minutes. This one just keeps tingling! Sorry - not a very nice review, but got to have a range of opinions right? And this product is just not for me!

Whilst I carry this product on in my handbag I must admit that I prefer the cherry Carmex by far. I find this product feels a little heavy and greasy when I put it on. I do however love Carmex and it does work to relieve rough, dry and chapped lips. I would love it if I could get the Cherry Carmex in the tube as I find the tub gets sand, dust and fluff stuck in the lid where the tube is much better. The tube also holds more.

I love Carmex. I have the cherry stick in my handbag and take it everywhere with me. I also keep a Carmex pot at work, so I am never without it. I work in a large air-conditioned mall so I find my lips dry out quite badly and Carmex is the first lip balm that has kept my lips soft and hydrated.
