I like this product. It actually does what it's supposed to. A lot of lip balms don't work for me. But this stuff does.

This has camphor and menthol which are DRYING and irritating to lips. Stay away if your have very dry lips. Also smells/ tastes awful and has an ugly tube and tub.

i use the original lip balm only at night because this lip balm has no SPF value at all. i think other than being moisturising, it also helps to renew the skin on my lips. i always find dead skin...

This is one of my favorite lip balms. It is very moisturizing and I don't have to apply for a long time after using it. Very affordable too. I like it in the little tub, but the stick form doesn't...

Let me start off by saying that I used to love this chapstick, my HG for my dry, chapped lips! I started with the squeeze tube kind and once I realized how horrible the experience was when it got...

Bought this after using Blistex which made my lips itchy and sore. Was a bit worried about the burning sensation it caused, but after a few uses it subsided to a slight tingle. This is the best...

Carmex is best used when you really need it. I originally bought it over other healing lip balms in the store because of the no-nonsense, industrial-looking packaging. I thought, "Well, this stuff...

Carmex is alright as a lip balm to me. It doesn't moisture my lips that much. At first I didn't like the strong wax taste but after awhile I got used to it. After many use of carmex, I think it dry...

Saw it on sale for 1$ and needed a lip balm so voila! Its very moisturizing (more so than expected) and comparable to the blue medical blistex.
