More than lip salve

It worked great! it helps hide the signs of the lines around your eyes, brightens under your eyes right up. Yes, I used it on my lips to make them soft, not just a preventative. Honestly, I bought it for under my eyes to bright t..." Read Full Review »

Yeeach!! This lip balm ...
"Yeeach!! This lip balm tastes pretty bad. Every time I put it on even a little, I would have a crayon taste in my mouth. This thing has camphor which may sooth skin temporarily, but constant use would actually make it an irritant. Also, why is there Salicylic acid in this? That ingredient would make your lips worse by making it peel even more when it's already chapped and it did happen to me. That sucks! Carmex ..." Read Full Review »

"I love this product! It is no frills, no fuss, but high functionality- totally different from all of my other lip glosses.

I recently moved to a fairly dry area near the mountains so the climate/environment change has taken it's t …" Read Full Review »

"I'll admit it, I'm a product snob. I tend to gravitate toward higher-priced items, so the fact that good old Carmex worked better than most other balms has been a surprise. It lasts as well or better than others I've tried, including Burt's Bees; while it has a similar menthol smell and taste, I don …" Read Full Review »
