Love carmex. I have only tried the tube so far. Its slightly thinner formula than lucas papaw. And quite glossy. A previous reviewer said the pot is a thicker balm compared to the tube. Went camping over Christmas my lips got dealt to with all the sun and wind etc being outdoors alot. I popped into the local chemist to get something with some grunt as my lucas papaw ointment wasn't helping. Was given this. 2 days later I have smoother, glistening healthy lips. Better than they have been forever.. feels like. I get dry lips in winter too. Now I can't leave this stuff alone. Even my husband asked where my papaw cream has gone.. not a huge fan of the taste of carmex.. Bit icky. If you dont like a minty/vaseline type taste you may not be a fan. But i see they do a cherry flavour. So if you like a lip balm with a good taste maybe try that. But I can forgive it that because it works so well. Give it a try. It works. Better than papaw...yes I said that.. and I have had a long time love affair with papaw. Until recently. Now it is dead to me.

My hubby got this from USA I am in love with this product one work amazing, totally worth trying.helps making lips smoother, great product
I always have a tub of Calmex in my bag, It moisturizes and soothes my lips. My lips stay moisturized for hours without having to constantly apply the lip balm, the flavored ones smell amazing as well.
This product is amazing. It is my go-to favourite lip balm. It tingles and makes your lips feel cold when you first apply it - this really shows that it's working. For only $5 you must buy this product!
bought this product when in desperate need of relief from sunburnt lips and am very happy with the results.
On application, my lips tingled for a bit but after that stopped they were very soothed and moisturised. After a few days of use my lips were back to normal again! Very pleased.
A great product to have on hand!
I use this if ive got sunburnt lips and it workes wonders! i love how it feels so tingly and cooling! just what you want when you have sunburnt lips :)
Tips: My partner works outside all day and gets burnt/wind burnt lips all the time! he swears by this and have even got all his work boys (tough bushmen) on to it hahaha!
I was sent this in one of my Sample Bar packs and had heard some good things about it. I tried it and love it!! I work in a factory environment and it really helps my lips from drying out and it stays on your lips for quite a while without having to re-apply. It tingles when you first put it on then goes away but I guess that means its doing its thing.
I love this product because my lips and very sensitive. I get coldsores a lot and when I get the first tingly feeling of one coming on I reach for my carmex always!! This stuff is seriously magic and has saved me from so many 'possible' coldsores. It has a nice tingly feeling which makes me think it's doing it's job. I would buy a tub of this stuff if I could. Just so good!!
Tips: Great for people who suffer from coldsores!!
I've had a rocky road with balms. Mostly, in fact always, I find they tend to dry my lips and I end up applying more and more and my lips become drier and drier until I give up and my lips return to normal. Not so with Carmex! Carmex went on easily and I loved how it tingled a little on the lips. Most importantly it moisturised without eventually drying - which makes me happy as now I can wear a tinted lip balm one day and although it'll make my lips a little dry the next day I apply Carmex and they're good as gold again. Carmex for the WIN!
This product is awesome I originally bought it for my partner who had a coldsore cause someone recommend it for that an we all have been using it ever since its such a good all round product
