  • I am HOPELESSLY addicted to Burts Bees. It's a real problem. I remember actually really wishing I hadn't forgotten it when I was in labor.

  • My favorite right now is Kiss My Face sliced peach. I also really love the Alba brand. Both are from Whole Foods.

    Not technically chapstick, but Korres lip butter is also amazing! I have the mango one.

  • I'm using the chapstick cherry right now. I love natural ice medicated too....my lips get sooo gross with the dry cold winter.

  • I'm not a huge chapstick person like some people, but I try to keep it on me for when I have dry lips (obviously).  I absolutely HATE any chapstick that makes my lips feel cold/tingly/etc and I'm not big on scents.  So my favorites are the plain old original chapstick or lip smackers pink lemonade.
  • I would DIE without chapstick. Seriously I would die from chapped lips. I use Aquaphor (by Eucerin). It's the best stuff for dry skin. I even smear it all over my face during the winter when I go out for runs to prevent my skin from getting chapped.

  • I always have either medicated or cherry chapstick with me. I also keep carmex in my desk drawer

  • I avoid petroleum ingredients, so chapstick brand is out. I never really cared for the way it felt, anyway. I like burts bees with the purple cap (acia?). There's also a coconut one by Alba that I've only seen a few times. I like that one, too. I also use avocado or jojoba oil before bed

    Best sound ever: baby's heartbeat! (Heard @ 10w1d)
  • My dog is a chapstick freak.  Like, there was a tube of chapstick on the kitchen counter, and our little doxiepin managed a way onto the counter to eat it.  There have been a couple times where she's figured out how to get my purse down off the shelf I put it on JUST to eat the chapstick.  Goofy little mutt! haha. 

    Anyways, I've stopped buying anything since it only ever lasts about a week before she gets a hold of it (which really bums me out...I used to wear Burts Bees all the time). However, my cousins make some homemade lip balm every few months, and every time I see them they give me a little tub because they know our dog always eats it haha.  At least it's all organic foodgrade stuff if she gets those :)

  • I love EOS in lemon or honeysuckle, it is the best stuff ever! I also recently tried Babylips (maybelline?) and it was really nice.

  • I love chapstick, but I never seem to buy it. But when i do it's always softlips.
  • Burts Bees during the day. At night, I put on Chapstick medicated right before going to sleep. I avoid petroleum products in general, but the Chapstick lasts me most of the night where BB didn't. I always am fighting chapped lips, grrr.

  • I use Chapstick in the morning when I'm putting on my make up.  Lipstick dries my lips out.  I put on Carmex at night before bed.  I hate it when we go somewhere for the weekend and I don't have it.  Ugh!  I really don't like the flavored chapsticks.  They smell bad to me.

    Crazy story!  I will never use the Cherry Chapstick!  In 2nd grade, a girl sat at her desk and ate nearly the whole tube and then proceeded to throw up on her desk.  Yup!  She was a  little off.  I still can't use that stuff after watching that whole episode!  Gag!

    I think  I would have the same reaction if I had seen that!
