EOS!!!! The ones that come in the little balls. Organic, taste nice, and last FOREVER! Lol. Not literally but they last a long time. :)

Lanolin!
I've tried Vaseline, Carmex, EOS- you name it. Nothing's worked against my dry, chapped lips. Lanolin's the only one to cure the problem. Highly recommend it :)

I have tried so many, over the years. Chapstick, Blistex, and those cheap brands just don't do it for me. I find they dry out, way to fast and I end up butting my chapped lips of having cracks. First, I found that little earphone thingy...I think it was med-x or so etching like that. It wave a tingle and the wax just stayed forever. Then, after constantly using thAt, I found I didn't like, anymore. I tried Burt's Bees, original. Love it. I now get the pomegranate one and the minty one. They are just the bees knees, to mee.. :tingrin:

Another EOS addict here. I have seven of the little eggs - five in my purse (I know), one on my work desk, and one in my nightstand drawer. IT'S A PROBLEM!!! But they go on nice and smooth and thick, smell great, taste great, easy to apply. They get rave reviews from me.

My favorite flavor is the new one, Summer Fruit. It's a mix of flavors but is predominantly peach. It smells and tastes soooOOOOOOOooOOoOoooOOO good. My least favorite is probably Sweet Mint. I still like it, but sometimes don't want that menthol tingle (think Burt's Bees), so it gets used the least. Funny because I have two of them! The one in my nightstand drawer is Blueberry SPAM and I use it every night before bed so I have come to associate it with brushed teeth and going to sleep!

The only one I don't have is the tangerine medicated kind.

Neosporin Lip Health Overnight Renewal Therapy has been good for me. I started using it at night, but now have one in my desk drawer for daytime use, too.
