Carmex Lip Balm

I've been using Carmex after a stranger in the supermarket recommended I try it, and I am so grateful she did! It's the longest lasting balm I've used and it got me through winter without the dry or wind-burnt lips like I usually have. However, after using it for a few months, I've found it doesn't moisturise my lips as well as my usual Blistex balm, so I now use this as more of a repair balm than an everyday one. The tingly sensation after applying is quite odd and took me a little getting used to, and I'm not a massive fan of the scent/taste, but the texture is great and it works really quickly- my lips were noticeably less chapped within a few hours after I first applied it. I have it in the stick format which makes it super easy to carry around and use. It won't be for everyone, but I would definitely recommend you give it a go!

This is the best lip balm I have EVER used. I started using this when being treated for acne with isotretenoin - an acne medication with the side effect of severely drying lips and skin. Nothing else worked to relieve the pain of sore dry cracking bleeding lips exact this. It feels great and tingly when applied, and lips do not become reliant on it like other lip balms often cause. Whenever I put this on my guy mates also always love the smell!

I love this lip balm. Its not only a great product, its easy to travel around with, tube and pottle. Although similar to the brand Blistex, I find Carmex better, as it does a better job on chapped lips and overall conditioning of the lips.

The Carmex Lip Balm is a super nourishing, softening balm. I really like this product, although for several reasons I don't think I will be purchasing again.

Firstly, the packaging isn't that appealing. I'm a girly girl at heart, and for me bright red on bright yellow just doesn't quite do it. I also received the jar-style packaging of this product, and I naturally don't really like lip balms in jars.

The lip balm itself has a really nice consistency, however, and immediately feels nourishing and nurturing on your lips. It does, however, smell VERY strongly of menthol product! Was not expecting that. It also had a tingly effect on my lips, causing them to plump out considerably.

Other than that, however, this balm is long lasting and definitely helps to soften up my lips when I apply it overnight.

I received this in my Goodiebox and was put off by the resemblance to Vicks Vapour Rub. However, after using it for a few days I'm officially a convert and on the cult bandwagon.

This lip balm leaves my lips so insanely soft, I don't know that I'll ever need a different lip balm. It smells like a mix of honey and menthol, which is weird but it grows on you. Even after an entire day of not using it, my lips are still really soft and moisturised because of liberal use before bed last night.

I like the way this lip balm is addicting, and the cute old-fashioned packaging. Huge recommendations from me!

I love this lip balm! At first it was a little strange, it was as though I was applying Vicks on my lips. It has a scent of Vicks mixed with a butter.

When first applied it gives a tingly or mild cooling sensation but I actually quite like that, the sensation doesn't last long tho. The product stayed put for a reasonable length of time and left my lips feeling nice and smooth.

I now apply it every night before I go to bed and I've not had any problems with dry or chapped lips since using this lip balm.

I received this lip balm in a package about a week ago, and it came at just the right time! My lips were cracked and dry and I needed a balm to sooth them back into line... This product did just that! I am now hooked on carmex lip balm and would have no hesitation recommending it to a friend. It certainly saved me!

I get really dry lips during winter and it sucks because I love applying matte lipsticks and it the crack hurts my lips as well.

Goodiebox included this on one of my boxes, and I gave it a go. I love the cooling sensation that it gives my lips. And it was smooth to apply and my lips feel as if it's drinking all the moisture.

I woke up next morning and my lips were smooth and feels like baby's lips. I am inlove with this product and will continue to use it.

Generally fantastic softening lip balm. It has a pleasant slightly minty smell, which I think is from the menthol. It really does feel soothing and gentle on the lips, and works wonders for softening them.

The only reason this isn't my go-to lip balm is that I prefer a creamier balm than a gel-type like this.

Wonderful when I was getting acne treatment (which causes really dry lips) I've only used the jar which has its own problems; in itself unrelated. But overall its wonderful! Simple and you can really feel it when it is moisturizing your lips, not just coating over it. I only wish they had more variety in flavors.
