Carmex Classic Lip Balm Medicated, 0.25 oz (Pack of 3)

Carmex is amazing. I've been addicted to it for the last 30 years or so. I have it in every form available - and keep it all over the place. A tube and a stick in my purse...a stick and a pot in my car...all of them in various rooms of my house...I don't want to be without it. If I had to choose a couple of things to be stuck on an island with, Carmex would rank in the top position! I usually buy these pots at the grocery store and try to wait for them to go on sale before I do. (When your addiction is this massive, you can spend a good chunk on lip balm over a period of time. That sounds so sad!) The last few times they've gone on sale, they were sold out. The panic! I decided I'm not going through that again - and ordered these from Amazon. (The seller is the manufacturer of this brilliant, beautiful, luscious yellow lip grease.) The box arrived quickly and in great shape. My little heart almost exploded when I saw the wonderful yellow box full of 12 jars...it was like looking at heaven! I have quickly gone through half the box, replacing the aaallllmost empty pots that I normally keep here, there, and everywhere. Better than xanax, I could feel my inner panic lifting as I gently placed new jars in all the spots I find it necessary to keep my beloved Carmex. I just feel happy when I open the lid and see the wonderfully smooth goodness waiting inside. I imagine it's similar to the feeling a toddler has about their pacifier or blanket. Except my addiction is serious - and someone could get very hurt if they get between me and my Carmex! This is a great way to buy Carmex in bulk - the only way to go if you are a true Carmex addict. (Even if you aren't, this could quite possibly be a lifetime supply - at a pretty good price.) I prefer using the jar at night - I feel like the thicker formula is more moisturizing and conditions my lips to an amazing level of pure bliss. The stick and tube seem to be better for daytime use, great to just slap on whenever your lips get that dry, yucky feeling. (Don't limit yourself - I use the jars during the day, too...I don't discriminate!) A jar of Carmex is *almost* better than a good pair of perfectly fitting jeans...it's like an old friend, with each little jar providing phenomenal lip comfort. A quick tip - some people don't like using the jars because it gets under their nails when they try to get some of the product. (Waaah - I say that's a small price to pay for lip lusciousness...) I have long nails and don't like the feeling of having stuff stuck under them. When I use the jar, rather than just poking my finger in there and getting messy, I turn my finger around - almost like I'm going to flick the contents. I gently scoop a small amount onto the TOP of my fingernail, therefore eliminating the Carmex-under-the-nail catastrophe. (See photo.) Applying it like this also makes my pots last much longer. One other tip? Living in Denver, dry, chapped skin and lips are a way of life. When my hands get super chapped and they hurt, or the split from the dryness, I apply a little Carmex to the affected area. (The type in the jar works best for this application.) I rub it in - and relish the familiar slight sting it produces - and continue to apply it until the area heals. Carmex makes these little cuts and painful spots heal fast - and I love that it provides a protective barrier over the skin and also that it repels water. Once it soaks in a little, I find I don't have to reapply it nearly as often as lotion. I even keep a tub of this in our first aid kit!

Best product for dry lips

Old fashion. Cure that works

Good price fir 2 carmex's. Love this stuff. Great for keeping lips moist.

The Carmex lip balm does the job - it works well and has a pleasant taste. There is one minor drawback. Unlike ChapStick which you simply roll on your lips from the applicator; Carmex comes in a small jar. You must use a fingertip to extract the balm from the jar and rub in on your lips. After each use, there is balm residue on your finger and it is sticky and messy and a little difficult to thoroughly wash off.

Carmex has been a favorite lip balm for years. Works great!

Great product with great price

I grew up using this and still prefer it to any other lip balm. It really lasts without feeling sticky.

Protege muy bien la piel de los labios, es un extraordinario prodcuto. El mejor en su clase. No se encuentra en España,

I buy these by the carton for my partner. I place them all over the house. Every flat surface. My life is much better now. 5 stars,

Amazing product! I always buy in bulk as it works out cheaper. I’ve got lots everywhere around the house and always have one in my handbag. I tend to breath through my mouth when asleep and always woke with cracked lips, not anymore; highly recommend!

I absolutely love this stuff use it every morning and night makes your lips nice and smooth without the cakey feeling

I will forever buy this lip balm
