Vaseline Lip Balm for Instantly Soft Smooth Lips Crème Brûlée Lip Balm Locks In Moisture to Improve Hydration 0.25 oz

I naturally have very dry lips. As a kid, they were always split and bleeding. (Attractive, I know). Now that I am adult, I try many things to keep my lips from flaking and peeling away like the crust of a croissant. Croissants are good, but they are not something you want to kiss! I would also like to note, I am on an antibiotic for acne (which is drying), as well as Rentin-A (which is also drying), plus I do a wash with 10% benzoperoxide (also drying) every morning. So you can imagine why my poor lips go through. I was using Burts Bees chapstick, before I decided I needed something better. I did a lot of Amazon searching and here are a few I ended up buying.Vaseline Lip Therapy, Creme BrûléeVaseline Lip Therapy, Creme Brulee 0.25 ozThis chapstick is basically flavored vaseline that comes in a tiny container. I really like how small and easy the container is to carry around. The chapstick flavor is good and subtle, it isn’t too overwhelming. This chapstick does a great job soaking in. My lips feel well nourished for 4 hours during the day with occasional lip licking and food eating, and it lasts all 8 hours through the night (I wake up with very soft lips). The chapstick leaves your lips looking like you put a lip gloss on them/greasy, there are time and places where that is bad and good. 5 out of 5 stars.Himalaya Herbal Healthcare Nourishing Lip BalmHimalaya Herbal Healthcare Nourishing Lip Balm, 0.16 OunceUpon initial use, this lip balm tastes very similar to bubble gum. I am not a huge fan of the bubble gum flavor. If you like that flavor, you might like this then. The lip balm goes on very smooth. However, it doesn’t last as long as the Vaseline Lip Therapy does. You get soft lips for about 2 hours with daily use, and it doesn’t quite make it through the night. However, this lip balm is much lighter than the Vaseline, leaving your lips not feeling heavily greased. Overall 4 out of 5 stars.Aquaphor Lip RepairAquaphor Lip Repair, 0.35 OunceThis chapstick is gel like in a squeeze container. This chapstick went on glossy/greasy like the Vaseline, but it wasn’t as thick as the Vaseline. I thought that maybe that it might be good that it is a bit thinner. However, this chapstick just wore away too quickly. I have to put this stuff on every hour to keep my lips moisturized. It does really good for an hour, but is gone too quickly. No smell or flavor, which is good to keep someone from licking their lips (if they have that problem). Overall, 3 out of 5 stars.My own chapstick, 1 part beeswax, 1 part coconut oil, 1 part Shea butterThis chapstick has no flavor to it at all. Which is good to reduce lip licking. The chapstick goes on smooth, though when you use the stick down, the product is kinda lumpy inside the container; this can be a little odd at first, but I just image it working as a lip exfoliator. The chapstick does an amazing job on nourishing my lips. It lasts a fairly long time as well, close to 4 or 5 hours in the day time, and all through the night as well. It is a very light chapstick, not leaving your lips covered in thick greasy stuff. Overall, 5 out of 5 stars.Burts Bees 100% Natural Lip BalmBurt's Bees 100% Natural Lip Balm, Beeswax, 0.15 oz., 4 CountThis chapstick has a very minty refreshing feel when you put it on. It tingles your lips. However, this chapstick made my lips worse, not better. After using it every couple of hours for a week straight, my lips were bleeding and there were multiple layers of flaking occurring. I felt like I was a little kid again. I did research online, and I found out that the Minty (peppermint, spearmint, eucalyptus, or anything similar) is very drying to your lips. If you have chronic dry lips like I do, this will only make it worse, not better. I do not recommend this if you have dry lips. Overall, 1 out of 5 stars.The winners were the Vaseline and my own personal mix. They both work equally as well, but glossy chapstick can only be used in specific situations. However, I am not disappointed in the Himalayan chapstick. I don’t use the Aquaphor unless I cannot find any of my chapsticks, and I refuse to even use Burts anymore.

I've been dealing with dry lips all winter and tried several chapsticks an lip balms and this is the only one thats truly helped. My lips are finally soft and smooth again. Definitely the best I've used. Will be keeping this on hand from now on. Can't recommend this enough for dry lips.

Good product

This is the only thing that will soften my dry chapped lips in winter.

This tub of creme brulee Vaseline "Lip Therapy" is unexpectedly tiny. It's pretty cute looking, and is an ideal size for travelling, or for throwing into your pocket or purse. This would fit easily in a lot of different places if need be.I just wasn't aware of how incredibly small this product truly is. It's only .25 oz., or 7 grams, and you have to bring the tub closer up to read the smallest words on the front label.I'm checking out a regular Chapstick label right now... It's only .15 oz. Or 4 grams.The reason for that weight difference? Vaseline is thicker and heavier than chapstick. If that's not true? Then the long tube version just makes the product appear larger.Also, the chapstick tube has a screw going up and down through the middle of the balm, which is how it screws up and down easily.The picture and description online seems to have fooled me. But then again, I already had a pre-conceived notion in my head. I never knew such a small size of Vaseline product existed.I doubt I'm the only one to be surprised.The price was really low. But now I see why it only cost $1 or $2. That's exactly what this is worth. And I thought I was getting a fabulous deal! Anything under $4 would be an appropriate price for this specific product.This tub of Vaseline lip therapy is pretty self-explanatory. It's a mini tub of regular old Vaseline with some type of artificial flavoring thrown in. It doesn't exactly scream creme brulee, but then again, finding a substitute for a dessert that heavenly is certainly a difficult task.The scent is very sweet and it does smell a bit like cream. It somewhat resembles my favorite (the absolute BEST) Chapstick flavor, Cake Batter. It's a major favorite among Chapstick users. It's seriously good if you ever want to try it out. It was put out just for a season, but since it sold so phenomenally, they can't get rid of it now!Anyway, this Vaseline stuff isn't too far off from that creamy flavor. It's not an overpowering smell or taste. I do like it. It's not bad at all.It's pretty low-key, so I'd assume most people wouldn't be super passionate about hating or loving it. I'd much prefer a subtle sweet flavor to that of a strong, potent one.This is just a mini version of the regular Vaseline tub that we are all familiar with. Just exponentially smaller and with a sweet scent.Vaseline has always been well known for having great moisturizing and healing properties to it. So it's not very surprising that this lip therapy is moisturizing.Overall, this product is fairly good. A little easy to lose, and the plastic cap may pop off if the tub is squeezed. Otherwise it's mostly secure.If you've tried Vaseline before on your skin, then you know what to expect. This is just a slightly sweeter version.In the past, out of desperation, I've tried to use lip balms on my dry skin when I haven't had moisturizer on hand. Although it is slightly moisturizing, it still doesn't work very well, since the balm doesn't spread as easily as a bottle of body butter for instance.With this particular Vaseline lip therapy, I sometimes spread some of it on some dry spots on my cheeks, as well as on my lips.The vaseline itself is mostly in a tough, solid form in the tub. I have to try to scoop at it a few times to get a little chunk out.The formula helps my skin a bit, and I discovered something interesting. Although I'd scooped out a tiny bit to use on my face, afterwards, my fingers weren't too sticky. I thought they would be.If you just wanna know if this stuff works, yes,It does moisturize and help protect your lips and skin.Although Vaseline is a heavier material than regular lip balms, It can be used up easier as well.I think plenty of you will not be happy about having to use your fingers to apply this to your lips. When at home, there's an easy solution, since there are tiny sample sticks sold on Amazon for cheap.Plus at home, you can easily wash your hands before and/or after if you want.To me, it's not a huge deal. I'm fine with it. But lip balms in convenient tubes ARE more efficient and easier to use.I can't wait to make my own natural lip balms and skincare products soon! But until then, I'm trying out some more brands. I'm trying to figure out what the best flavors/scents/ingredients are comprised of.
