    This is one of my favourite lipbalms - yes, the menthol is a little counter productive, but cocoa butter moisturizes, petrolatum holds in moisture, and salicylic acid exfoliate dry skin, so it is...

    this stuff is the worst for your lips: it Over exfoliates so you feel you have to keep applying. Had something like this problem with Lancome lipstick, too. It has those kind of additives.

    I don't know if this product works at all, because the second I put it on my lips, I start gagging from the smell and have to take it off. It's in the top ten most disgusting things I've ever...

    I would repurchase, yet rarely ever use. I like it better than regular chapstick. But the menthol in it is counterproductive by taking away any chance of it moisturizing your lips well. I much...

    This is the only lip balm that I've ever used that actually heals. With all the others, they're just there for scent and flavour but they don't actually do anything. With Carmex I notice a change...

    I love this product! Extremely moisturizing and lasts for a really long time. But I REALLY REALLY REALLY HATE the scent.

    All time favorite and always works!! Love Cherry smell. The one in the jar is more moist though. I wear the one in the jar overnight. Great for people who get cold sores like me.
