Chapstick Chapstick

I have been using these for as long as I can remember and so has my mother and grandmother. they truly stand the test of time. They moisturise and last. What more could you ask for?

This comes in the standard lip balm packaging which twists up. I've had this in strawberry and original. The strawberry has a nice taste to it.

I feel that these ones were a good touch up lip balm but are definitely not my pick for when I need actual hydration and protection. These don't last for very long and I have to constantly reapply throughout the day. I feel like my lips also feel a lot more chapped after using it. I do like that is has Spf as it's important to protect the delicate skin of the lips from uv radiation but ideally there should be both UVA and UVB protection. They're also really handy for on the go use.

Chapstick's chapstick would be one of those products that I grew up with.

As a lip balm it is more gender neutral than most lip balms due to the the more gender netural colour and styling of the packaging.

However, as a product I think there are better ones out there. I find chapstick ends up drying my lips out. The scents choices of the chap sticks are all pleasant, but I need something more moisturising.

The chap stick stic itself was standard quality and some lasted the whole time the chapstick was used while others got stuck half way through using the chapstick.

I think it's great chapstick packages itself in a way that make both men and women feel they can wear it, but I think they are short changing men since women will most likely go for more moisturising lip balms elsewhere.

I don't know anyone from my childhood who hasn't come across this product. Unfortunately for me this chapstick had the reverse effect on my lips.

I used to buy this earlier on in high school from the supermarket. I can't recall how much it was back then but it was affordable. I would buy this whether I had chapped lips or not and what I found was that if I used it when my lips were fine; I'd eventually get chapped lips. If I used it when my lips were chapped, my lips would remain chapped and become worse.

The stupid thing is I never quite latched onto that until I had gone through a few. Back then I just didn't think too much about products not working for everyone - if it said it would moisturise the lips I believed it would work (oh to be young and naive again haha).

They come in a small cylindrical white tube and are very easy to lose in your bag (even in your school pockets)!? I think I repurchased a few just because I had lost them only for them to turn up once I did some more digging. I always used to get the strawberry scent because it was kind on the nose but not on the taste buds. When applying it did go on smoothly; it wasn't too sticky but there were times where I put way too much and found that it was quite tacky.

Aside from drying out my lips it was annoying once I hit pan because there was actually quite a bit of product left below so I'd try and scrape out what's left. Since then I've found a product that works for me; but personally I don't see people missing out on anything with this chapstick.

I remember having chapstick as a child and I loved it because it smelt and tasted like lollies. Now I'm older and I still love chapstick, but I now understand that it is really beneficial to my health. It keeps my lips hydrated and if I happen to have dry or chapped lips, it works really fast to get the hydration back into them. They have such a huge range of flavours I'm always spoilt for choice.

I forget about these little guys and how good they really are. I think we get caught up in the hype of new product and forget to go back to basics. This is the perfect chapstick to keep in the car/in your bag/at work...this list goes on. It really does soften your lips, its smooth - not chunky - to apply and it feels great on. Added bonus - it's not strictly for the ladies.

have used these for as long as i remember... mostly during winter! but otherwise also good to have on hand esp with the SPF content. no complaints at all, esp at that price

I love some good old Chapstick, because it's quick, simple, and effective. My favorite is the cherry (or is it strawberry

Chapstick is a beauty essential - I have been using it since I was a child. It's a no fuss lip balm and is cheap so you can afford to have multiple ones on the go. It has a pull off cap and twists up from the base. It's a waxier lip balm, but goes on smoothly and provides reasonable hydration. I prefer the classic formulation, which has an inoffensive faint vanilla scent, but there are multiple flavours and scents available to choose from - something for everyone.

A classic that will be around for years to come in my makeup bag.

This is my go to favourite for cheap, affordable and simple lip balm. Love it. This is always in my purse
