Suffering from chapped lips and occasional cold sores, Alfred Woelbing invented Carmex lip balm in Milwaukee in the early 1930s. Formulated with a variety of natural ingredients, the mixture was carefully hand poured into small glass jars, which Alfred would sell to pharmacists from the trunk of his car. Over the last 70 years, people have come to love the kip balm that works like no other. It Soothes. It Heals. It Protects.™ Now available in flavors and with SPF, Carmex comes in squeeze tubes and click sticks; as well as Alfred's original formula in the little jar! The Woelbing family still runs the business today, answering every letter and email! Carmex is tested on family member's not on animals.

I bought this since many people recommend it. But I feel a little disappointed. Yeah, it can smooth my chapped lips and can last for a long time, but it's too greasy and can't be absorbed well. And its smell, it has a strong fruit flavor, but still can't cover some strange or bad taste. In general, this balm is just OK, but I won't buy it again.

I am absolutely in love with Carmex! I live in Minnesota and the air is extremely dry here, especially during the Winter months, and chaps my lips like crazy. Before I tried Carmex, I was using plain old Chap Stick and it just didn't cut it...in fact it made my lips even more chapped and cracked. I love watching the make-up Gurus on Youtube and one of them said she absolutely loved Carmex for her chapped lips since Chap Stick didn't do anything for her. I decided to try it out and now I'm hooked! I keep 3 or 4 around because I'm so afraid of running out! I will never use another product again as long as Carmex is on the market. This is an absolute must have, especially if you live in a drier climate like I do.

I love the cherry carmex, I have always been a carmex user but i will never go back to regular carmex. The cherry has a great smell that everyone seems to love. It also gives your lips a good glossy shine. LOVE IT...LOVE IT!

This is affordable, and i use this all the time. It makes my chapped lips look smooth again. I got reactions from everyone. If you cant afford neutrogena lip gloss or victoria secrets lip gloss, get this!
