This AM, I was thinking how grateful I am to any old tube of lip relief. Ahh, the parched winter lips are a perennial annoyance! So let us stop, however briefly, and pay homage.
This one, above is good and more like a lip gloss, so you get a little fashion while you are at it. It comes from Bath & Body Works and you can get a little tint with it, or, not. Kind of pricy, $7.00, but you do get a hit of mint in each mouth breath you take.
Carmex is actually the best, don't you think? I was lead to this by mysister in NY, Barbie, who is forever more practical than me. She is right, as usual, and my kids go bonkers for this one. I think that you ge a nice shine here, at no extra cost and it costs only about $2-3 dollars. They have a few higher end products now, I just noted, when I added the link.
To me this may be the original, even the "classic" as it says on the label, but this is the "kiss" of death for lip balm. My son likes this. When he comes home from college, it is always laying in the bottom of the dryer. At that point it is empty and I wonder to what clothing the chap stick stuck. In its defense, it never seems to ruin the clothing it washes with. I heard once that this is actually really bad for your lips. I only use this in a desperate moment.
Found this one in a card store one day last year and I love it. It is almost all gone, but you cannot tell by this angle.
It is like a mini Yankee Candle...I fell for the gimmick, what can I say?
Well, this has nothing to do with photography, or my job. I threw a few lame product shots in for you to make it interesting.
So let's take a poll: What is your favorite lip balm?
