This is probably one of the only products I NEVER run out of. Being from Canada, we have some long, dry winters that call for heavy moisturizing. This lip balm is the most moisturizing thing I have ever used. It gives me a great tingly refreshing feeling which is nice when your lips are chapped and burning. This has a way of cooling, healing, and moisturizing all at the same time. Each time I use this I feel like it's repairing my lips a little more each time! Such a nice, smooth formula and gentle "medicinal" scent which i love. Highly recommend you try this!

I got this at walmart for $1 USD each which is a great deal.
pro:
- glides on easily and smoothly
- extremely effective. I put it on before going to bed at night and my lips still feel moisturized in the morning
- can't beat the price

con:
- no security seal. It could easily be contaminated
- the smell is very unpleasant although it goes away after a little while. This is what stopped me from purchasing it after trying it out from a friend.

Everyone but me seems to love this product. I bought it on a friend's advice, but found it didn't have the desired effect. It often left me with a scummy layer on my lips that was a visible white colour, leaving me embarrassed when I noticed in the mirror. I found the taste hard to take and also hate the burning/tingling sensation.

Sorry Carmex, count me out.

I've been using Carmex Original Lip Balm for many years! I really love this product, not only is it for Cold Sores but also for dry lips. I love the scent Carmex Original Lip Balm. I always have some on hand. It works so well, it even helps with the itchiness from cold sores. I also love how fast Carmex Original Lip Balm woks not only dry lips, but cold sores too. I recommend this Product to everyone. Thank You. :)

Carmex works great for chapped and dry lips. It instantly makes my lips feel moisturized and relieves any dry or cracked feeling my lips may have. You don't need much to apply either. It has a menthol smell, which is great if you have a cold or stuffy nose. I have found it helps clear up a stuffy nose, as well. Therefore, I will apply a tad bit right under my nose to help clear it up when I have a cold. It actually works and if your nose is raw and red, it actually relieves that too. It makes it not raw anymore and it won't hurt anymore. Really weird how it does that but it does work. However, if your nose happens to have any sores or is really raw so the skin has cracked, then Carmex will burn/sting a little at first, when you put it on. It will go away soon though.

This is the best lip balm for the winter months! When it gets -50C outside my lips instantly shrivel and crack. This is the only thing that works to keep my lips smooth and moisturized!

This is the most effective lip balm I can use for chapped lips. I highly recommend it and it's well priced.

Although it feels like lip gloss, I use this to effectively fight my constant chap lips. I use it before bed to get softer lips in the morning.

I love this product, it works great on dry cracked lips by keeping it moisturized. it goes on smooth and it was very effective for my dry lips.

It is soothing and does so quickly. There is no waxy pasty feel afterwards Love this and it will be y new go to lip balm.
