CarmexClassic Lip Balm Medicated, 0.25 Ounce (Pack of 12)

Carmex is the best. Nothing else even comes close. (Although Burt's Bees will do in a pinch.)

Item as described by the seller

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!

only product I can use to keep my lips from drying out - winter or summer

Great value, I think

Can’t leave home without it… I’m a professional lip pealer and once my lips are dried and cracked I moisturize with Carmex and they’re like new again sleeps with it wears it everywhere and keeps multiple in every bag … w out carmex idk where I’d be lol

This stuff is amazing. It fixed my grotesquely chapped lips and saved me from what could have been a life in the circus. It took about two or three days of applying it, and completely solved my issue.Another reviewer mentioned that it actually works on sunburns, which I got while working at the same time as my chapped lips, and it worked on that as well. Nothing but praise for Carmex! I keep this on hand in my bag now and at my desk.

My wife likes Carmex do I buy a dozen at a time
