What's your favorite brand of Chapstick?

[Anonymous]

I don't typically need or wear it but my lips have been suuuuuper dry lately. So I invested in some burts bees mango Chapstick today.

Also: do you know anyone who had issues with that drama the EOS Chapstick was causing?

[kaylaS91]

I always wear eos and have had no issues with them. One of my friends from school said her friend did, apparently developed eczema around her lips/mouth area. I'm gonna take those accusations against eos with a grain of salt seeing as how eczema is an autoimmune disorder, not something contagious that you can blame on anything other than triggers like cold, dry weather (seasonal eczema).

We did also happen to have a bit of an arctic frost in my area a week or so go during which i found eos wasn't quite up to par. Overly lightweight, so I switched to that heavier rose balm stuff they sell at chapters.

I may be barking up the wrong tree, here, but my usual lip gloss game is enough to keep the chappies away.

I bought about 25 tubes of Too Faced "Mirror Mirror" clear lipgloss when they discontinued it. Should've bought more, I've been going through them at a frightening pace. I wear it either alone or (more commonly) over lipstick.

In terms of currently available products, MAC Lipglass should be moistening enough, I'd think.

I mean, in my values system shiny lips >>> moist lips, but those brands let me have both.

Sounds like it's gonna turn my lips into a lantern :o

[BertMacklinFBI]

So far, the only chapstick/lip balm that has consistently worked for me and hasn't dried out on my lips or been too waxy is Burt's Bees Wax, but only some of them; specifically the 'Nourishing' (with Mango Butter) and 'Hydrating' (with Coconut & Pear).

Oddly enough, though, the Burt's Bees Wax - the original one, doesn't work for me... it feels too waxy.

Chapstick is a brand name, but everyone calls it that when its proper name is lip balm. I dont have favorite brand of lip balm. I've used all kinds. Nivea lip balm dries out quick for some reason.

[Asker]

I figured I'd generate more response from both genders if I said "Chapstick" vs the more feminine sounding "lip balm".

[poppunk]

I don't know about drama per se but I do know some people had their lips literally bleed because of it. I love the nivea lip balms that come in tins, they're super moisturizing and smell like what I imagine heaven smells like

[EmpatheticLady]

I love the green apple flavor from Chapstick.

I don't know anyone personally having issues from EOS, but it sounds horrible. I'll stick to Chapstick, haha.

I don't really pay attention to brand, but I guess the Chapstick brand is the one I use most. I also like Carmex, although it doesn't come in near as many different fragrances.

[PeachSunset]

Burt's Bees is pretty good! Its natural ingredients and it does the job for me.
EOS is an absolute rip off though. Maybe it looks unique but it does nothing for my lips :/

[Prof_Don]

Carmex is the best!

I use Burt's Bees too. I think the one I have now is cherry flavor. It's good stuff and works.

[Asker]

Good to know!

[CHARismatic110]

I loveeeee BabyLips by Maybelline! They have a bunch of different kinds. Tinted ones and all.

[Asker]

May look into it! Have to get used to wearing regular stuff first lol I'm not used to having things on my lips, I bite them constantly lol

[CHARismatic110]

Lol fellow lip biter here so I get it.

[BellePepper]

I use the Nivea sticks now but I loooove Aveenos Chapstick. I just can't find it anymore :/

[Cmasterson]

Lucas paw paw! It's literally the best thing ever, is also used for other things like burns etc.

[Cmasterson]

Papaw*

[Yumix]

I use Labello (if Chapstick is what I think it is, never heard of it before lol)

[Anonymous]

All I can say is stay far from La Roche-Posay's Ceralip, it's totally not worth the price.

[Asker]

No? Never even heard of it before.

[CheerGirl38139]

Lip Medix for the win 👍👍

[evenlift]

Burt's mother-fuckin' Bees.

[fenixx0083]

Isn't "chapstick" it's own brand?

[Asker]

Indeed. Figured I'd get more response using "Chapstick" than the feminine sounding "lip balm" though.

[fenixx0083]

I always thought "lip balm" sounded too medical, like it were for cold sores or something...

[apple24]

I use whatever i find!

[ScruffynateAK]

Chapstick is for the weak.

[rgb008]

Carmex.
