I have a lipstuff addiction. In high school I could often be found with not 1, not 2, not 5, not 10… sometimes 15(or more!) lip products of various flavors and brands in my purse on any give day. I always have some kind of chapstick or gloss on my person, often stored in my bra, and I have several different kinds stashed in every room of the house. I wish I could say that the item I’m giving away today is my absolute favorite lip product of all time, but that would be a lie. When my family visited London in the Spring of 2003 we visited a luxury department store (Harrods for those who know their shopping) and I went all kinds of crazy and bought over $100 worth of Prada Lip Balm. To be fair the price was in pounds, and I’ve never been very good at math, so I’m not sure I realized exactly how much I was spending. If you really want the best lip stuff ever, go with Prada.
My second favorite balm though, is still pretty dang awesome. Kiehls Lip Balm #1 in the jar. Jar, jar, jar, this is very important. Do not get confused as I have many a time and purchase it in the tube. They aren’t the same formula (well I’ve never actually researched this but after years of using both I’m convinced they aren’t) and the jar formula is better by far. The secret to getting soft and plump lips with this balm is lathering it on nice and thick right before you fall asleep. Let it sink in overnight and you’ll wake up with smackers that are flake free and incredibly kissable. Showering at night and rubbing your lips gently with a soft bristled toothbrush and then slathering this stuff on right before dozing off makes the effect twice as nice.

Enter this giveaway and you can test my kissable lip theory out for yourself. Answer the question below for an entry:
Favorite lip product?

I swoon for Stila Lip Glaze. I have them in over a dozen colors.
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:38 am
Ooo, I so badly need this. I’m a burts bees ‘shimmer’ girl myself…it’s fairly cheap and has the cooling menthol goodness!
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:42 am
I love Maui Mike’s Lip Balm in passion fruit!
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:43 am
I am also a lip balm addict. My current favorite is Badger Sleep Balm – smells like lavender, and makes me sleep better at night. Win!
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:43 am
My favorite is the regular Burt’s Bees. But I too have had up to 15 lip products in my purse at once, so I’m not above trying new things! Thanks for the giveaways.
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:44 am
I, like you, have the same “problem” of always carrying too many lip products. I must ALWAYS have chapstick with me. I order all my make up from Avon. I use their Moisture Therapy lip balm. I also love their Glaze Wear lip glosses. But I also love Burt’s Bees as well.
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:44 am
I love Victoria’s Secret Lipstick in Exhibitionist – I stock up every time I see it because I’m so afraid it will be discontinued!
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:45 am
I have to stay my favorite is my old standby – Classic ChapStick in the black tube!
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:47 am
For awhile my fav was Carmex in the squeezy tube, but since I’ve gotten a “real” job I switched to Bobbi Brown’s lip gloss in Nougat. It’s not all tacky and gross like some can be, and I think it has a nice neutral, go with anything, color to it.
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:48 am
Awesome giveaway. My favourite is the Smith’s Rosebud Salve, which has attained a bit of a cult status. I use it on dry skin on my face too! It’s the best!
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:48 am
I am such a lip gloss fiend and collector! I have at least 5 in my purse at all times and I’m constantly searching for the perfect one. Right now I’m loving Bare Escentual’s (for a pop of color).
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:52 am
I don’t know if I really have a favorite… In my purse at any given time I have: CoverGirl lip stain, Burts Bees lip balm (love the cooling menthol!), Sephora Gloss, Aveda gloss, Smith’s Minted Rose lip balm… umm that’s all I can think of off the top of my head. The real trend here is menthol! LOVE the tingly feeling on my lips!
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:54 am
I love trying out new products, but for my lips I always tend to go back to the classic Chapstick… in the black tube, of course!
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:54 am
Well my favorite lip gloss is Smashbox…I love their colors and it’s not sticky!!
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:54 am
Good to know. My poor lips are a cracked and chapped mess this winter!
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:54 am
I have four chapsticks and glosses in my bag at this time. I love Victoria’s Secret lip glosses, but my all time favorite is Blistex Silk & Shine. Love it!
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:54 am
Burt’s Bees Honey Lip Balm. It’s amazing! Well, and so is the rest of their lip balms too
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:55 am
I like The Body Shop’s Vit E Lipcare with SPF15. Oh, and I love the “winter edition” TBS Lip Balms, right now I am still using Nutmeg and Vanilla, with smells and tastes nice and gives a great shimmer.
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:55 am
My all-time favourite lip balm is actually The Body Shop’s Cocoa Butter Lip Butter. Creamy, moisturising and tasty. It tastes a little like coconut Mounds bars. Except calorie free.
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:57 am
Rosebud Salve for a lip balm, and Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey for tint. (But my lips seem to sort of acclimate to lip balms, so I usually have two or three versions at any given time…also a big fan of Badger lip balms.)
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:58 am
Cabela’s brand lip protection, far and away the best chapstick I’ve ever used.
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:58 am
I’ve always been partial to Mint flavored Carmex and newly trying Mary Kay’s satin lips, but still have yet to find the magic product. This just might be it
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:58 am
What I’m obsessed with right now is Aquaphor. Simple, cheap, and works amazingly well.
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:59 am
Burt’s Bees Peppermint Lip Balm. So yummy!
I also have Madrid Gal Vaseline that I put on at night. It’s almost out and there’s not chance of going to Spain again any time soon. So I’m very sparing.
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:00 am
I really dislike most lip products (esp. lipsticks) but the one I can’t live without is Burt’s Bees Lipbalm.
If I am in a glossier mood I like my Clinique lip gloss in Rasberry, I think it is the most perfect red!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:01 am
I love Softlips in Vanilla flavor. I put some on before bed and when I wake up in the morning. It’s wonderful!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:03 am
I love Cargo lip gloss. It’s not great at moisturizing, but the colors are amazing.
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:03 am
I’m a fan of Bath & Body works lip gloss. It’s shiny, has a little tint and tastes good.
(is that weird?)
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:04 am
I love Burt’s Bees Beeswax lip balm–the cooling peppermint is such a relaxing sensation! If my lips are super chapped, Aquaphor Healing Ointment is my life saver!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:04 am
It sounds like a lot of us have an addiction! I slather Dr. Dan’s Cortibalm on my lips mulitple times a day and can’t stop. It all started after I had severely sun burnt lips a few years back (think Angelina Jolie sized swollen lips) and my dermatologist recommended it. I would love to try something different!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:05 am
I used to love the line of Clinique lipsticks – then they discontinued my favorite color OF COURSE. I’ve always been a bit leary of drugstore makeup (I’m willing to spend more money on makeup than anything else in my beauty regime) – but I just tried the Covergirl Outlast lipsticks – - they really last a LONG time!
I don’t wear lipstick that often because it would just come off in .2 seconds and I hated having to worry about reapplying-but this stuff stays on! I love wearing it because even if I’m just wearing comfy, not terribly attractive clothes, a little color on my lips makes me look like I’m making an effort.
That said – I hope I get to try this lip balm! I love lip stuff.
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:06 am
Well, I always use products from JAFRA, so I like lipstick and gloss… I love it!!!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:07 am
Favorite lip product? Shoot, I don’t really use any. But I do have 2 things in my purse I use on occasion – Kiss My Face strawberry lip balm and Wetslicks fruit spritzers in strawberry (that I think has been there for years).
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:08 am
Have never tried this one… I am partial to things that look and smell good, or shine or shimmer, but the blistex medicated stuff (generally unattractive in every way and with no bells/whistles) seems to be the best when it comes to a serious chap problem….
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:11 am
I’m with you on the Kiehl’s #1! I’ve been using it since high school – although, I will admit, I’ve cheated on it with the Cranberry Kiehl’s in the tube – and it’s pretty nice, for an easy applicable, daily balm
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:11 am
I have always been a Burt’s Bees girl – I love the cooling peppermint, but my lips were so chapped this winter I bought some stuff from my dermatologist’s office. It’s from Iredale Mineral Cosmetics and it is called Lip Drink. It has a slight lemonade flavor and works wonders!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:13 am
I love Burt’s Bee’s lip balms and Satin Lips by Mary Kay (lip mask and lip balm combo-so nice!)
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:14 am
honestly, I’ve never found a lip balm that really helps my dry, flaky lips! I use some products from C.O. Bigelow (sold at Bath & Body Works) but they work for about an hour and they my lips are dry again. Drives me nuts!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:14 am
I love the tingly feeling of Burts Bees lip balm. I also like the Sephora lip glosses.
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:14 am
I love Ulta Lip Tint, it gives you just the right amount of color while mosturizing at the same time. In the winter I rely on Blistex Lip Medex at night which leaves them nice and smooth in the morning.
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:18 am
my favorite lip product right now is actually a baby product.
i love aquaphor healing ointment.
i got terrible chapped lips after i gave birth in july and this was the only thing i had handy at the time besides a+d ointment, but this works wonders! my lips were healed overnight, but then again i slathered over my lips like i was buttering a crossaint…lol.
btw, a few years ago i scored 3 boxes of prada lip balm (both regular and rose tinted) at tjmaxx for 4 dollars a box
SCORE!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:18 am
I’m a Burt’s Bees girl myself. I’d love to try the keihl’s– I love their other products.
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:24 am
I’ve actually never splurged on lip products. I usually buy chapstick or if I want to splash out, Nivea. I had the same off-brand lip balm that I bought at a German drug store for years and I was sad when it was finished. But this sounds great and I’d love to try something a little nicer!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:25 am
I’m a C.O. Bigelow Rose Salve kind of girl. I can use it on my lips, cuticles, where ever! I usually don’t even wear gloss over it because it brings out my lip color so well.
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:25 am
The Herpecin (horrible name, I know!) lip balm in the jar is my favorite for giving me smooth lips. I only use it at night because it makes your lips look white, but it definitely works!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:26 am
Oh! I’m a total chapstick JUNKIE, but I keep it simple- – CO Bigelow stick with VS Fineapple gloss over it!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:30 am
Definitely Softlips… I am a simple girl, and that stuff is just perfect… not gooey, but still keeps my lips perfectly soft. Love it!! (Although, I made the mistake once of getting the tinted kind… bad idea!)
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:30 am
Haha, I’m glad someone else keeps gloss/balm everywhere. The best (and I currently have it in FOUR different places!) I’ve found is Nivea Kiss of Moisture. Love it!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:37 am
i love nu skin’s chapstick. i wear it all day long. but you might remember a recent tweet where i complained about my chapped lips in this utah weather!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:40 am
My favorite is Kiehl’s #1 but the tube kind.
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:42 am
I LOVE Lipe Shine by C.O. Bigelow. You can get it at Bath & Body Works.
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:42 am
I love the C.O. Bigelow mint gloss, but I’ll settle for Burt’s Bees. Classic though, none of that honey stuff for me.
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:45 am
Burt’s Bees…I am hopelessly addicted to it!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:50 am
I use plain ol Vaseline, but this stuff sounds pretty great!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:50 am
Sugar by Fresh. It’s $22 but it’s worth every penny!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:52 am
I have a few actually. I love Stilla MAc and Tarte lip glosses. But my secret is baby vasoline on my lips at night. I wake up to super soft lips especially in the winter.
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:53 am
Fresh Sugar lip treatment!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:59 am
I’m a Burt’s Bee’s girl too, though regular old Blistex does well too. I’m a sucker for lip balm- I may have to pick up that Kiehl’s if I don’t win!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:59 am
I”ve never been a lip balm kinda person but since I do some winter camping with the Scouts I tend to buy whatever’s at the gas station. Thats right you read that right! This is why I need to know what I am missing!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:02 am
I love my MAC cremesheen glass in Looks Like Sin. Too bad it’s been discontinued!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:08 am
rosebud salve
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:09 am
I love C.O. Bigelow’s orange creamsicle lip shine.
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:10 am
Hmmm, tough question! I love pretty much anything Burts Bees, but I have to say classic cherry chapstick is probably my fav!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:11 am
I share your affliction for stockpiling lip products! Lately though, I’m having a love affair with plain ol’ boring Carmex – tube or jar are fine. It’s helping me get through the icky dry winter months.
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:14 am
Gosh, it’s been forever since I regularly used a lip product… and I think I need to start again because the other day before Mr. W went in for a kiss he stopped and said, “Oh, poor little lips, all flaky and chapped!” Then again, I think I can’t find my Burt’s Bees because I loaned it to him and he put it someplace strange.
Burt’s Bees lip balm is probably my favorite, but I used some of their lip shimmers as well. And more true confessions time, I have some WAY old stuff from high school in my makeup drawer that taste like pineapple and cake batter (separately, not together). Sadly, when you actually lick your lips it tastes gross, but the smell was wonderful. Too bad nobody was kissing me in high school.
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:15 am
Believe it or not, my favorite is Chapstick brand with the black label. Ya know, the cheap stuff in the checkout line? LOVE it.
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:19 am
Mine is the cheaper Carmex in the jar – not the tube (it’s too thick).
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:19 am
I’m a lipstuff fiend as well.
My favorite, though, is SmartShield Lip Balm.
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:27 am
I have this in a tube, so am intrigued to see the difference in the jar!
My favorite lip products are Trish McEvoy lip glosses! Over all other dept. store brands – Bobbi Brown, MAC, Laura Mercier, Chanel (well, Chanel is pretty great too) etc. Trish ROCKS!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:29 am
I’m normally addicted to plain old cherry chapstick and keep them everywhere! I also love ELF gloss (cheap and pretty!).
I’d love to try your fave!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:34 am
I stick with what works….Blistex Medicated Balm. Never fails me in the cold Chicago winters.
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:34 am
Ooh this is a tough question. I am an avid user of Chapstick b/c it’s affordable but don’t love it as much as the Kinerase Lip plumper which leaves my lips soft. My favorite ever lip color/gloss is MAC Lip Glass. It is a little sticky but I looove the colors and how long it lasts. Perfect!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:36 am
A Burt’s Bees one that has a little mintiness too it… I am always losing it and then searching frantically for it!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:36 am
C.O. Bigelow mint gloss is my fave..but to be honest I have a lot of lip glosses I love!!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:37 am
I love lip products too! I usually have waaay too many in my purse. My current fave is a MAC lip varnish in Soft Tease – perfect nude lip for me. Thanks!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:39 am
Natural Ice…Only the mint! can’t live without it, REALLY….since I can’t get it in the town I live in I have my brother mail it to me from 2,000 miles away……
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:39 am
I’m a simple cherry chapstick girl
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:39 am
I have always like blue chapstick. But have lately been unsatisfied with anything, so I would love to try this!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:43 am
In my bag right now I have at least 2 tubs of carmex, some burts bee’s, and a rosebub salve. I have the say the carmex heals the best. I’ve always wanted to, but have never tried the Keihls….
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:43 am
I love Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment- I use it all day long and it smells as good as it feels.
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:47 am
I LOVE the Blistex Silk & Shine for chapstick. For lip gloss – I LOVE dazzleglass from MAC. I am liking the shade ‘Love Alert’ for now.
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:48 am
I don’t even wear bikinis! I could not live without Vaseline. I feel seriously uncool whenever someone asks to borrow chapstick from me, but the product is perfect– cheap and effective.
I have a tendency to pick lip gloss (and nail polish!) colours for their names rather than shades, which is funny because my all-time favourite lip gloss–with a minty tingle similar to Burt’s Bees and the ability to make lips look AMAZING– has a name that isn’t anything special: Origins Liquid Lip Shimmer in Pink Bikini.
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:49 am
I bought some of the ULTA brand lipstick a year or so ago and wow, it is my favorite thing. Stays on my lips and off my teeth, little bit shimmery.
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:49 am
I’ve found that Vaseline works the best for me to keep my lips soft. I keep tubes of this by my bed and in my purse. I also love NYX lip gloss.
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:51 am
Yet another vote for Burts Bee’s. Love that stuff. I have Kiehl’s skincare products, though, and they are awesome, so I’d love to try the lip balm!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:53 am
I’m a sucker for Burt’s Beeswax in the little tin. So good!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:56 am
My dermatologist got me hooked on Eucerin’s Aquaphor Healing Ointment for my lips. I haven’t used anything else in years and love that it doesn’t have petroleum jelly in it like other products which just seem to dry my lips out and make them flaky.
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:56 am
My favorite lip stuff is the C.O. Bigelow Lemon Lip Cream (http://www.bigelowchemists.com/product_info.php/cPath/356_357/products_id/4700?osCsid=292106fbeff1fb49b4c882227e17fcac).
It’s super tasty, makes my lips feel super smooth, and provides just the right amount of sheen. Perfect for everyday use!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:57 am
My favorite is the good old Burts Bees – Replentishing Lip Balm with Pomegranate Oil. Working in a hospital with all that dry air (and sometimes no chance for even a drink of water) my lips end up looking like asphalt in winter! The balm helps, most of the time, but sometimes my lips are just way too chapped. I might have to invest in the Kiehls anyway!
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:01 am
I love Benefit Cosmetics lip glosses. My favorite is named “Life on the A List” – it goes on nice, has good coverage, has a nice scent.
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:03 am
Just the old fashion Chapstick for me!
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:04 am
I have a bowl full of lip gloss on my dresser – i’m a bit obsessed too!
I love Burt’s Bees pomegranate lip balm. Love it!
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:14 am
Sugar Lip!! My absolute fave!
http://sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P57002&categoryId=B70
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:17 am
I am usually found with my trust, and thus favorite I guess, TUBE of Kiehl’s lip balm. I’ve never tried the jar.
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:17 am
burt’s bees lip balm, hands down.
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:19 am
My absolute favorite is C O Bigelow Ultra Mentha Lip Balm. It is sold at Bath and Body Works. It leaves your lips with a tingle and smooths them. It is awesome. I ALWAYS have a tube of it with me.
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:19 am
My favorite is the C.O. Bigelow mentha lip shine. I hate the packaging though because it seems like the tube gets dirty and I can’t get it off! I’m addicted to the peppermint flavor!
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:21 am
I don’t usually wear anything on my lips, but my chapstick of choice is Burt’s Bees! Love it! My lipstick and gloss of choice is MAC.
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:27 am
I am most definitely a burt’s bees girl when it comes to really dry flaky lips!
However since you mentioned high school and lip balm addictions… in highschool I was all about Lipsmackers!!!…shh… I still have a few floating around to this day! haha
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:28 am
I like a little color!
http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P177721
Thanks Jenna for these giveaways – what a thoughtful idea.
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:29 am
Chapstick moisturizer in the blue tube – I always have to have one on me!
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:30 am
I do the coupon to get free items thing, and one week CVS had a deal on Nivea. I got 4 tubes of their new Nivea lip balm for free, made money on the deal, and promptly made fun of people who would pay $3 for a small tube of lip balm…
Then I used it. It. Was. Amazing. It’s my new favorite. Nivea might just be putting their body lotion in a tube, but it’s so awesome I really don’t care
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:36 am
I’m in love with the CO Bigelow mint line from Bath and Body Works. So refreshing! I feel like I have fresher breath because of it.
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:36 am
Burt’s bees – either tin or stick; or the Body Shop in the jar.
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:40 am
I’m a strawberry chapstick girl. I love it!!
I always try lipsticks but they rub off and drive me crazy.
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:41 am
Cherry chapstick.
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:44 am
Anything lanolin based – Bag Balm or Lansinoh (now that it is handy).
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:52 am
favorite lip product, hands down, burts bees, beeswax lip balm. i have tubes of it everywhere, not the life guard one, just plain, the sun block one makes your lips look pasty therefore making you look dead…gave my dad a heartattack one day before i realized it!
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:55 am
My fave lip product is: Victoria’s Secret Beauty Rush Soothing Lip Balm!!!
Fell in love with this stuff instantly back in the day when I worked at VS!! It’s amazing!
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:03 pm
Can I pick more than one? Will that disqualify me? I love lip stuff too. DCT by Blistex, Smith’s Rosebud Salve and for color products I love Bare Escentuals Buxom in Dolly (perfect color) and MAC LongWear LipColour in Jazz-Y-Razz.
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:06 pm
I prefer Bert’s Bees original formula!
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:17 pm
I adore the C.O. Bigelow ultra-mentha lip shine. I have them in my purse, bathroom, bedroom, living room… anywhere I need an immediate glossing! Kiehl’s also has a fab colored gloss that I save for special occasions.
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:21 pm
I’m another Burt’s Bees lipbalm devotee, but I’d gladly try out your fave!
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:25 pm
Brambleberry Rose Lip Balm by Rosebud Perfume Company.
I am also a tub lip balm convert
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:31 pm
I really love the C.O. Bigelow brand that you can find at Bath & Body works. I have a really old tube that I’ve been using for a while, but my favorite is their type that’s sheer and ultra minty.
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:31 pm
MAC Lipshine is Viva Glam V!
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:32 pm
I love and use Smith’s Rosebud Salve every day. It works on my dry, chapped lips.
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:50 pm
Dr Pepper chapstick.
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:51 pm
i used to like carmex as well, but now I used peter island lip balm, but I am open to try something new! I must have lip balm everywhere i go.
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:51 pm
Rosebud Lip Salve or plain ol’ Vaseline!
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:53 pm
I must admit, I’m a simple gal, and am a fan of Burt’s Bees.
(I too have a LARGE amount of various lip glosses/balms/etc.)
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:56 pm
I guess my favorites are nothing too fancy–Burt’s Bees, and Carmex
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:58 pm
My current fave is CoverGirl ShineBlast. A $6 cheapie that exceeds expectations. So unlike the two latest verrry expensive ones I bought which suck rocks: Nars Lip Gloss and Fresh Sugar Rose Lip Treatment. Terrible!
February 23rd, 2010 on 12:59 pm
I’m a Burts Bees kinda girl unless I want some color/gloss then I go with MACs Pedal Pusher which is a shimmery pale pink that they discontinued. Luckily I stocked up!
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:02 pm
I love the regular burt’s bees chap stick. not the honey or the shimmer or the lifeguard versions, just the lovely original one- it doesn’t ever feel cakey on your lips
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:07 pm
C.O. Bigelow Rose Salve for everyday. MAC Viva Glam VI lipglass for dressing up. But I also have 5-10 glosses in my purse at any given time.
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:07 pm
Soft Lips in cherry flavor!! I love it. I have always loved lipstick but it never looks good on me.
Just a swipe of Soft Lips and my lips feel soft, taste yummy, and my natural color comes through beautifully!
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:10 pm
I’m currently all about Burt’s Bees! But I love Kiehls, so would looove to win!
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:14 pm
Ohhh man I knew I liked you. I’m addicted to chapsticks myself. If I don’t have one readily available I get twitchy. I should take a picture of my chapstick drawer. It’s a bit… nuts.
My favorite is this kind from this local lady, Wild ‘erb Lip Balm. Seriously AWESOME. http://wilderb.com/products.html
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:15 pm
My favorite standby is good old-fashioned vaseline! It’s like a miracle for my lips when I wear it overnight
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:15 pm
i also always have lip gloss on me…sad are the days when i realize i’ve left mine in a pocket somewhere and don’t have it! and my favorite is strawberry chapstick–it tastes good, is cheap, and stays on a long time!
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:19 pm
Old standby: Burt’s Bees original!
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:20 pm
Or: Rosebud Salve from Sephora!
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:23 pm
Currently, I’m loving Burt’s Bees Pomegranate lip balm (chap stick) … it’s so smooth and adds a slight touch of color that almost everyone I know can wear
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:26 pm
The coolest lip product I’ve ever own (and have been addicted to since I bought my first one) is Gosh Light ‘N Shine Lip Glaze. It’s SO cute! It has little LED lights inside the cap and a mirror on the side of it so that you can reapply anywhere, anytime no matter the lighting conditions.
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:29 pm
My current favorite is regular Chapstick or Vaseline.
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:34 pm
My old stand by is softlips. Love it. Also love the fact whenever I am with my brother and without I know he’ll be able to hook me up! (Carmex in a tube is also great – especially if my lips are in REALLY bad shape!)
If I want a little color I go with the COBigelow tubes found at Bath & Body works. Can’t beat the price to have multiple tints. They also have a great lip buffer!
What really cracks me up is that my hubby loves chapstick – but refuses to use anything that makes his lips the least bit shiny. Anytime he wants to borrow some he says ‘Is this shiny?’ He’ll put it on and then check the mirror to make sure. What a dork
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:35 pm
Plain old Vaseline. Boring, but I love it.
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:47 pm
I’m not picky-Carmex.
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:51 pm
Definitely smith’s rosebud salve – great for lips, cuticles, and, a secret, put a little of it on spots that new shoes are starting to rub to prevent blisters.So multi use! but its great on lips, I once had chapped lips that would not end, and it finally solved the problem
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:55 pm
My favorite lip balm of all time is Dr Pepper Lip Smacker!!!!!!!
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:56 pm
I actually love Mary Kay’s Satin Lip set – it has this mask thingy that scrubs away dead skin and then a moisturizer lip balm that makes my lips smooth and shiny! I’m always embarrassed to admit that, for some reason…
February 23rd, 2010 on 1:58 pm
When I was on Accutane awhile ago for my skin, I lived and died for Aquaphor. I had about six tubes of it stashed around the house, at work and in various purses. I still really like it for intense dry lips!
February 23rd, 2010 on 2:02 pm
I love Carmex, Sephora lip balm in the little pot (works really well to keep lips soft), and C.O. Bigelow – but my favorite, favorite lip product is Nars lip gloss in Chihuahua, Orgasm, or Greek Holiday. Kind of sticky but it works sooo well to moisturize lips!
February 23rd, 2010 on 2:39 pm
Carmex! The regular old stand-by. I love it!
February 23rd, 2010 on 2:43 pm
my fave lip product is this badger lip balm. It’s organic and my best friend got me hooked on it. I love it!! Plus, I love telling my husband to hand me my badger.
February 23rd, 2010 on 2:46 pm
cherry chapstick! mostly cause i’m cheap.
February 23rd, 2010 on 3:11 pm
Carmex with a colored gloss on top like any of the tinted C.O. Bigelow products I love the slight chill it lets off!
February 23rd, 2010 on 3:14 pm
Oh, I love love love lip products! I can’t live without Dr. Pepper Bonne Bell, but I think my new favorite is Korres Full Color Gloss. It’s not sticky, and the red color is divine.
February 23rd, 2010 on 3:39 pm
My favorite right now is Burt’s Bees, but I am in need of something new!
February 23rd, 2010 on 3:43 pm
It’s kind of child-like, but I’ve always loved the kiddie Lip Smackers in all kinds of delicious flavors! I would get probably 25 tubes for Christmas in my stocking when I was in middle school & high school. Loved it!
February 23rd, 2010 on 4:01 pm
i actually LOVE Fresh sugar lip balm. I NEVER finish lip stuff and I’ve gone through three in the past year.
February 23rd, 2010 on 4:05 pm
I can’t say I ventured out too far in the lip product realm (though I’m a totally lip balm.chapstick addict)
but right now I love Smith’s Minted rose lip balm from Anthropologie
February 23rd, 2010 on 4:11 pm
I love the Liplicious lip glosses from Bath and Body Works, they come in the yummiest flavors!
February 23rd, 2010 on 4:21 pm
Mary Kay makes this lip mask and lip balm set that I looove, and I also adore my Chanel lip gloss, it is SO sparkly.
February 23rd, 2010 on 4:28 pm
I absolutely love Blistex’s Lip Medex. Works miracles for dry, wintry skin!
February 23rd, 2010 on 4:35 pm
The only thing I use on my lips is vaseline, which basically works as a chap stick? I would love to have something like this!
February 23rd, 2010 on 4:41 pm
My favorite was bought in England, as well! Nivea Lip Care “Caregloss & Shine.” Perfect balance between moisture & sparkle/shine.
February 23rd, 2010 on 4:46 pm
I love Burt’s Bees best. But I’d love to try something new!
February 23rd, 2010 on 5:12 pm
I really like the little lip balm tins from Lush!
February 23rd, 2010 on 5:14 pm
I love the Covergirl 2 in one (color on one side that dries, then clear lip gloss over). The color I use gives just enough extra color and it stays on all day.
February 23rd, 2010 on 5:15 pm
I am also completely guilty of a lip stuff addiction. My present fave is Alba passion fruit nectar lip balm. Smells yummy and works great. For a splurge though I think you really can’t beat Chanel lipstick. I wear a sheer magenta one all the time. It feels so nice on.
February 23rd, 2010 on 5:17 pm
I love the Bath and Body works lip gloss! I also can’t live without my burts bee
February 23rd, 2010 on 5:37 pm
burt’s bees pomegranate lip balm-smells delicious and adds a little color!
February 23rd, 2010 on 5:38 pm
Burts Bees in the tub allllll the way. I agree that everything is better in the tub!!!
February 23rd, 2010 on 5:41 pm
I’ve tried a lot of lip stuff but Burts Bee’s regular old chapstick still works the best for me. I love how minty it is! It just feels nice.
February 23rd, 2010 on 5:52 pm
C.O. Bigelow Mentha Lip Tint.
February 23rd, 2010 on 6:06 pm
Sweet almond oil right on the lips in my favorite!
February 23rd, 2010 on 6:11 pm
Burts Bees all the way
What can I say, I’m unadventerous!
February 23rd, 2010 on 6:21 pm
I like a good minty lip balm-like-thing, especially before running. Right now, I’m into the mint stick by Yes to Carrots!, but it still doesn’t replace the Bonnie Bell Peppermint stuff (that I cannot find!)
February 23rd, 2010 on 7:31 pm
boots organics lip gloss – so creamy!
February 23rd, 2010 on 7:31 pm
I adore carmex in the yellow tube. Can’t go a day without it. Love me some lip balm!
Good luck to everyone
February 23rd, 2010 on 7:39 pm
The best lip product is sugar mixed with honey and olive oil. I rub it all over my lips in the winter and they turn soft and sweet!
February 23rd, 2010 on 7:41 pm
I’m like you with lip products, except mine are all glosses! I’ve definitely been called the lip gloss queen a time or two. If I can afford it, I love Christian Dior or Chanel, but right now my gloss of the month is Bare Escentials.
February 23rd, 2010 on 7:54 pm
Lancome Juice Tubes! Yayyy!
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:02 pm
I love MAC lustreglass–it’s usually sheer enough to be very wearable and it comes in tons of colors. For lipbalm my current favorite is Burts Bees
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:06 pm
I’m just like that – I’m always trying new lip stuff and there are tons of tubes of who knows what sitting at the bottom of my purse. I do the whole buy something and use it 3 times before trying something else.
I guess my favorite right now is Korres Cherry Oil lip gloss! It’s pretty good. I also really like Chinique’s All About Lips, but only the original and not the tinted.
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:07 pm
Not the most glamorous product, but lanolin — the same stuff you’ll purchase to ease breastfeeding — makes a wonderful lip balm. It’s all-natural (natural enough to let newborns basically eat it!), thick enough to last longer than most balms, calming/moisturizing, and cheap-cheap-cheap!
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:22 pm
I LOVE Aquaphor. I know its sold at drug stores, etc. But I’ve recently switched from Alba to Aquaphor and my lips look and feel better than ever.
I bite my lips out of a nervous habit and it completely heals it!
I’ve heard La Mer chapstick is amazing, but it’s too expensive for me to try ($50).
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:27 pm
I love the pretty lip glosses from Bath and Body Works. They are so soothing to unhappy winter lips and provide a nice hint of color. I’m also a big fan of anything from Burt’s Bees.
February 23rd, 2010 on 8:52 pm
Anything Burt’s Bees will do for me!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:04 pm
Although it does nothing to combat dry lips like your glorious product that you are making me want to go out and buy now even if I don’t win, I love Laura Mercier lip stain. I have the shy pink which is nice and neutral enough for my pale skin but I like that the color lasts much longer and doesn’t kiss off *too* easily.
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:09 pm
How sad is it that I love Carmex. In the squishy tube. It makes my poor chapped lips feel better!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:26 pm
I’ve always got softlips in my purse!
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:34 pm
Lip Sugar Scrub from Bath and Body Works
February 23rd, 2010 on 9:43 pm
My fave stick balm is Neutrogena, but I’d love to try this one!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:10 pm
Currently obsessed with fresh sugar in rose!
February 23rd, 2010 on 10:58 pm
Nighttime – Vaseline. Day time – Bobby Brown.
February 23rd, 2010 on 11:44 pm
SoftLips!
February 24th, 2010 on 12:03 am
I like Burt’s Bees — the minty one — but right now I need something else because my lips are dry and itchy! HELP!!
