Is it the bees wax lip balm or the honey lip balm?

And is this the 'tinted' ones? :)

I've only used the Beeswax Lip Balm. Never tried the Honey.

It kinda tingles (prolly because of the peppermint oil) when you phrist put it on. :D

I used the Raisin tinted one. It stays on pretty well. Not great, like Bobbi Brown lipstick, but it sure pheels good. :D

I can get really grumpy without my Burt's Bees. I'm so glad our local pharmacy carries it. :D

I get grumpy if I don't have some kind of lip balm on...I keep tubes in the car, pockets, purse, tote bag, work...wherever I can. I can not stand dry lips. I've used many different ones, can't say I've ever been thrilled with Carmex tho. I always heard such great reviews about it, but wasn't too impressed with it. Right now I have chapstick medicated cuz it was on sale, but normally don't like Chapstick or any of the other waxy ones. Have used Burt's Bees in the past, and of course Blistex. I have a couple of Hawaiian Tropic ones that I like cuz they have a lot of SPF in them. I also use the tube lip glosses over my lipstick, they stay on pretty well.

Ok, it's been tested ... and in the competition between Burts and Carmex Tube..



I'm sticking with Carmex. :)

Sorry, but I tried. And I bought the tinted one too. Regular is too much like Chapstick in texture.. waxy feeling and not 'greasy' enough .. and the tinted one feels like fiber in it.


I'm sure you all were waiting to know this. ;)

The tinted is a little grainy....I use the regular every day...the tinted during the winter when I need some color.

Sorry you didn't care for it. Don't know what I'd do without it. :D

if your lips are already chapped I think the only thing that clears it up quickly is old fashioned blisted. The others are more of a preventative.

Good to know about the grainy.. didn't know if it was the tube I bought or not, Terry. :)

And no worries.. I'm just fussy about 'lip goo'. :D I can see how pholks like it.. and hey, I tried. :)

Without a doubt Neutrogena is the absolute best. Expensive, but put it on at night, next morning, no chapped lips.
