Burt's Bees or carmex lip balm? I NEED ALOT OF ANSWERS!

Which is better? Which is healthier? Which do do like? WHY?





I need alot of answers! so keep on answering!Burt's Bees or carmex lip balm? I NEED ALOT OF ANSWERS!
well it depends...............





PERSONALLY, i think that carmex works a lot a lot better on healing your lips, however many people don't like it because of its smell or cause it burns ( just a little bit, not badly or anything)..............








on the smell of carmex...... most people don't like the original smell, but now it comes in mint, cherry (not gross cherry medicine cherry, but good cherry), and i think raspberry... so that also makes a difference





HOWEVER, i think Burt's bee works well and i really like the scent and the feeling when you put it on..... it tingles....





it depends on what you want in chap stick





I would say Burt's bees just cause i like the texture in a stick better than the balm carmex came in, BUT carmex now comes in a stick so like that too








well, I HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!!!!!!!!!Burt's Bees or carmex lip balm? I NEED ALOT OF ANSWERS!
I prefer Burt's Bees, even though the smell of Carmex sets off some fond childhood memories.





I prefer BB because the balm generally lasts longer when applied and the ingredients are more natural. And I have a thing for the smell of peppermint, though that's more of a personal thing.





But if you want something to shield your lips vs. moisturising them I would go with Carmex. Carmex seriously feels almost like a shield when I have it on.
Burts bees isn't what it used to be.


They sold the company to Chorox a while ago and they plan to mass market it and cheapened the formula. Burts bees also gets too sticky at times and it doesn't work as well as Carmex.The only good thing about Carmex is the menthol mint affect but its also too gooey and is packed with chemicals. I personally can't use any of them because they contain lanolin (im allergic).

Try the Lypsyl lipbalm,i think its better than burts bees and it uses honey( a natural and effective moisturizer).





http://lypsylhome.com/lypformulas.html





Its avaliable at local drugstores.


You could also use Vaseline lipbalm it works wonders.


I love the packaging on the Lypsyl that little bee stick is so witty!





Hope this helped.
Burts Bees is better FOR SURE !


i LOVE this product, i dont know what i'd do without it


i used to have REALLY bad lips, its was not only dry and cracked, the skin was peeling of a LOT, it was so gross, i tried so many different products, none of them worked. then i bought Burts Bees and now, my lips are so much healthier, all the peelings are gone, i apply every night right before i go to bed and its working GREAT for me. i would definalty recommend it
i use to be obsessed with burts bees the tin the stick you name it i have it couloured ones.


got over that quick works amasing dont get me wrong,


but i now prefer water lip blam its made by water companys most have one.


they keep your lips nice and smooth %26amp; hydrate them which i would have to say is healthy.
I've always been a carmex fan. I guess addicted might be a better term, but recently my husband bought burt's bees for himself.


As it turned out I really like it. I haven't bought my own or anything, but it is really nice, not like chapstick which I hate.
both are ok.





I like the Co. Bigelow lipgloss from Bath %26amp; Body Works. It has sunblock lipgloss, different flavors and tints.





Chapstick is also a TOP TOP TOP brand. Probrably the most popular. Different flavors, too. I applied it one or two times a day for two days and it unchapps my lips pretty quickly.
burt bees cause carmex has this addicting ingredient to it, you can even search it up, burt bee is just natural and it works perfectly fine =]
i personally love burts bee's it doesnt feel like its on your lips when it really is and its not all gunky like carmex. but if you get burts make sure you dont get the lifegaurd one other wise your lips turn white
Burt's is much better.
Burt's Bees has good color I used it for field show. It last along time. =]
Burt's Bees all the way!
BURTS BEEES


my lipps keep moist for a longg timee



Totally burts bees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i thought carmex wuz bad for u.

If I use carmex and lip-balm on lips daily will that make my lips softer?If not what would be the best way?

it will help, but vaseline is the best!If I use carmex and lip-balm on lips daily will that make my lips softer?If not what would be the best way?
Keep doing what you are doing. Soft lips are a part of healthy skin too!





If you discontinue use of lip balm products, your lips will be cracked, dry and uncomfortable.





make it a part of your daily beauty regimen....





...I Do!!!!If I use carmex and lip-balm on lips daily will that make my lips softer?If not what would be the best way?
Make a washcloth wet with cold water and GENTLY massage each lip for about 30 seconds each. More or less time depending on how dry your lips are. After this dab some vaseline on. The exfoliating will plump your lips a little as well, so this is a great method for people with thin dry lips.





(You can also use a toothbrush.)
Your lips can get addicted to carmex and lip balms and may be extra dry when you don't use them. Try vaseline.
i think chapstick works...and o yeah, stay hydrated by drinking water that ALWAYS works no matter what store bought product you use.
If your lips are feeling really dry, open up a Vitamin E capsule and put that on your lips--total moisture.


Burt's Bees is pretty much bomb at softening lips while making them smell good :] check them out, they're for sure at CVS and they used to be at Bath and Body works www.burtsbees.com


Carmex can be addicting for your lips like soemone else said plus it smells reallly bad and burns your lips because it's a medicated formula for cold sores.
well lip balms do make the lips softer so yeah.. also u can wet your toothbrush and exfoliate your lips which will take off the dead/dry skin. then put on some vaselineor lip balm n theyll be soft
I acually use burts bees wax lip balm, and that works really good, but if you want soft lips fast use the Neosporin lip treatment stuff. and don't use carmex because it acually attracts sunlight and which can burn you lips.
Yes, anything that keeps them moist is going to make them softer.

Heating up Carmex lip balm?

On cold days, or wen your hands are cold, wen u spread carmex on ur lips it feels solid and unspradable so wat i do is i put it on the radiator to warm it up. its become quite running/ soft. wat i want to no is but doin this would it lose its effectiveness as a lip balm (not protect my lips as well)Heating up Carmex lip balm?
Carmex also comes in a soft plastic tube with one end sealed off and another end that is rounded (see the ones on top at this page: http://www.carma-labs.com/#/Products/Car鈥?/a> ). Just use that instead of the hard plastic kind and keep it in your pants pocket before using it. The radiator can overheat it and lead to separation and can completely melt the stuff in the hard plastic tube.





It stays pretty soft even in cooler weather. ...but it will be really hard to get out of the tube when it is freezing cold. If you cap it well and just put it in a pocket to warm up it works perfectly.





...and the stuff in the soft tube still tingles and it comes in flavors like the stuff in the hard tube.Heating up Carmex lip balm?
I see no problem in this, though don't put it in the radiator for long. I do not believee it shall ose effectiveness or harm your lips.
not it wouldnt loose its effectiveness, but why dont you try the rose tinted vasaline its easier to spread in cold weather and give your lips a healthy tint of pink!!!!!

Do you like carmex lip balm?

I use it all the time but everyone I know hates it.


I love itDo you like carmex lip balm?
yes the one in the tube works really good i use it a lot in the winter to keep my lips from getting chapped when it's really cold or if my lips are already chapped i'll put a real lot on before i go to bed and when i wake up they'll be fine! i love it :)Do you like carmex lip balm?
I love it. I love the texture.
i'm absolutely in love with it.


it's amazing.


i like the cherry flavor the best.
no, i like burtsbees personally nothing and i mean NOTHING can beat that lip balm
I like it......
I use it because it doesn't make my lips peel.
I don't like them, they smell bad... A little like car lubricant or something... lolz!


but I'll have to agree that it's really good, I uses them whenever i have really dry lips... Cause it is good for healing dry and chap lips..!





Enjoy!
gurl i love it to! it works great and its smells great too! LOL
i love it and use it...i also use chapstick cherry or watermelon flavor
No I don't. I'm addicted to Chapstick, however. Well I'm not so addicted now, but I was for about 10 years.
'Tis the best!
no i dont like it. i never did. kind of burns my lips
i like it but it doesn't moisturize anymore. I must have used it for too long, every night for the past 6 years. I use Blistex now. But my favorite chap stick is Bath and Body works.
Chapstick! Carmex has a funky taste to it.
I love it

  • Carmex Lip Balm? Is it good for lips?

    carmex is amazing. it makes your lips so soft and chapped lips just disappear.some places its like 2 bucks, but you can also find it for like 25 cents. ((same size))Carmex Lip Balm? Is it good for lips?
    Its the best you can find!! I love it good price great moisturization I have never used anything that worked better. I always have carmex in a jar or tube with me at all times. Ive tried using colored or flavored lib gloss/balm and it always did the opposite for my lips My lips are never dry with carmexCarmex Lip Balm? Is it good for lips?
    i actually havent tried carmex. but i love blistex because its very good for curing chapped lips and it feels good too.
    Yes it works good
    This is probably the best OTC remedy for dry chapped lips out there and its extremely cheap. I like the mint chapstick but would choose Carmex over chapstick any day. Use it!! :)
    Yes, it is ... but DO NOT use it every day. Using any 'lip balm' or other product (even lipgloss and lipstick) can 'dry' your lips out to the point that your lips will chap if you DON'T wear them ... but if you want to use it for an 'undercoat' when you are going out, it works wonders ... and the 'color' you add over the top will 'stand out' better, because of the 'moisture barrier' the Carmex Lip Balm adds.
    My dr. told me not to use it because you tend to lick your lips more when you use it making your lips even more chapped.
    yeah, my aunt uses it all the time


    thats the only one she uses


    but if you have like cuts on your lips it stings and heals
    Only if it has a sunscreen and you don't over use it. All of these products tend to become addictive so to speak, and the lips feel moist upon application, but actually cause more dryness.

    Does carmex lip balm cause cancer?

    If it did, I dont think it would be around as long as it has been.Does carmex lip balm cause cancer?
    consumer products are required to go through rigorous testing, if there was any sign that carmex caused any sort of ailment there would be a huge scandal and it would be pulled from shelves immediately.





    if you can't find information easily on the internet about something like this...and have to come to y!a, i'm sure it's false.Does carmex lip balm cause cancer?
    what makes you think that? No it doesn't, cancer's not caused by using a particular lip balm
    why would you think that?





    no it doesn't cause cancer lol
    Lmao. Of course not. Silly.
    Of course not, lol.
    no! lol i love carmex
    they wouldnt make it if they did, so no.
    uhhh I'd be dead if it did haha
