I live in a place that is cold and shitty 75% of the year so I go through Chapstick like Canadians go through maple syrup or Germans go through sausage or Irish go through potatoes etc.
Anyway, everyone and their lesbian mother has a raging boner for Burt's Bees. For like 30 years of my life (and I'm only 21) I've heard people ragging on about how awesome it is to put beeswax on their lips. So a few years ago I bought some Burt's Bees chapstick to replace my Blistex and "ChapStick" brand lip balm. I was hugely disappointed and felt like I was just raped by trendy advertising. Burt's Bees did little to remedy my extremely chapped lips, and not long after trying it I went back to using my "ChapStick" brand. I mean honestly hooray for consumerism and commercialism.
A year later my friend was like, "dude, check out Carmex that shit is straight dope!" I was like, "do I smoke it?" He was like, "No, it's chapstick you fuckwad." So I was like, "Carmex...it sounds like a rental car company or an air freshener brand."
Anyway, long story short, Carmex is amazing. It protects your lips, it heals cracks, and it
feels protective. So that's what I have been using for the past 3 years of my mundane existence.
I doubt I will be giving up my Carmex anytime soon, but what lip balm/chapstick do you all use?
