I have been using ChapStick as my lip balm for as long as I can remember. It was probably the first product I ever put on my lips!
ChapStick comes in many flavours and styles now. Traditionally it comes in a 3.5g plastic tube case with a removable lid, and a wind up base like a bullet lipstick. The most recent one I have tried is the Total Hydration, which comes in a silver case with blue accents. It claims to be 100% natural. The product is cream coloured, and vanilla scented.
I think ChapStick is a very reliable and consistent brand. They know how to make chapsticks, and they make them very well. After using one of their chapsticks my lips always feel better. They do not leave my lips feeling too greasy, and the vanilla scent is mild and pleasant.
I think if you are looking for a chapstick to hydrate your lips, you cannot really go wrong with ChapStick’s lip balms.
Basically your best friend in those winter months when your lips decide they don't like you anymore. Chapstick is a basic necessity, although if you want to spice things up, try the different flavours. It's nothing fancy but it will keep your lips moisturized.
Tips: I usually have two. One in my bag and the other on my bedside table so it's with me wherever I am.
