Does beeswax lip balm make your lips look bigger?

i have this beeswax lip balm and i read somewhere that it makes your lips bigger, and that lip balm makes them look bigger without it. Is this true, and how can i make me lips bigger they are already very red.Does beeswax lip balm make your lips look bigger?
No





:]Does beeswax lip balm make your lips look bigger?
Thats what they do day. But yes , I think it does make them look bigger. Because when your lips do not like chemicals in a lip balm , they tend to shrink. If you the lip balm is natural they shine and grow to their fullest. Its doesnt taste that good.. But you can try Lip Smackers.
they jusst make them look healthier they have new lip venom type of lipgloss from good names now like covergirl and stuff so its not harmful or irratating.
Lip gloss makes them look the biggest
I think it does... I use it bcos I've got small lips and I look for things that can to emphasise them more.

What is the best lip protectant/ lip balm to use on my lips?

Burts bees It is medicated so it heals your lips and it doesn't taste badWhat is the best lip protectant/ lip balm to use on my lips?
Best is plain ole' vaseline. That's the main ingredient in the better lip balms, and the cheap ones just coat the lips with paraffin or beeswaxWhat is the best lip protectant/ lip balm to use on my lips?
I like carmex (It is rreally soothig for cracks on your lips and prevents dry lips) and burts bees (Some of them even have a color tent!). Anything with a SPF 15 or higher works well to.
Plain old Vaseline works best.
carmex is really good.

What tinted lip balm do you recommend?

i need a tinted lip balm that moisturizes and is loaded with vitamins and all the good stuff for your lips. Any suggestions. ps i live in Canada and there's no walgreens or target or anything here. so plz i need products that i can find in canada.What tinted lip balm do you recommend?

chapstick


nivea lip care

  • Chapped lips does anyone know of any lip balm or gloss that really helps chapped lips?

    I keep using vaseline but they still seem to be very dry and chapped after an hour or so. Chapped lips does anyone know of any lip balm or gloss that really helps chapped lips?
    The Body Shop's ';Lip Butter'; in Shea Butter.





    It's so good and works a treat :)Chapped lips does anyone know of any lip balm or gloss that really helps chapped lips?
    Try any lip balms that say ';intense moisture'; or something along those lines. Don't get any generic ones because they usually end up drying it out even more.





    I used to have dry lips but I apply vaseline every night before I go bed and in the mornings when I wake up and about a month after I started my lips no longer needed it because they were never dry but I do it anyway, it's become a habit.





    So try doing Vaseline every night but not as your main daytime lip balm.
    Make your own... it's much better for your lips and it works well.





    Get some beeswax, coconut oil, and essential oil (if you want flavour... I mix 2 drops of peppermint with 2 drops of cinnamon leaf)





    Melt 1 tsp beeswax, mix with 1 tsp coconut oil and essential oil, fill the container you wish to use, let harden and then use,





    Or, buy chap stick brand lip balms... they work pretty decent.
    Burt's Bees.


    Without a doubt, the best lip balm ever. They have tinted lip balms and lip shimmers and lip glosses too. Some of that stuff you'll have to maybe buy off the internet, though. Drug stores and Wal-mart have the plain lip balm and sometimes the lip shimmers. I've seen stuff at Cracker Barrel too.


    Good luck!
    Arbonne SPF 30 Lip Saver Great for Summer or Winter. I use it all the time. Botanical Based so it nourishes the skin does not just cover it like any mineral or petroleum based product will.





    email me if you want more info!





    Best wishes,


    Karen
    Carmex, and soft lips.


    They are both sold at major stores and drug stores.

    What color lip stick/lip balm would look good on me?

    I want something not too bold/deep, but something with a bit of color.


    I have green eyes.


    Light brown hair.


    And I'm not pale, or tan. I'm somewhere in the middle. lol.What color lip stick/lip balm would look good on me?

    Red can look good for evening, if you don't want it too deep choose a sheer lipstick or gloss, see :

    What is the best type of lip balm?

    I don't necessarily have the most chapped lips, but I like keeping my lips soft, and smooth.


    I've been using Chapstick, the Moisture kind, in the blue wrapping. But it doesn't keep my lips soft for that long. I also tried Burt's Bee's, the normal kind, and I think it made my lips scaley, i dont remember...








    So what's the best kind?What is the best type of lip balm?
    i used burt's bee's and it happened to me too:/





    i suggest anything from bath%26amp;body works...its great.


    you can also always stick with carmex and blistex!


    those two are always the best!What is the best type of lip balm?
    NIVEA- it's the smoothest one i've tried and has NO problems.


    and at night, try putting on a coating of Rosebud Salve before going to sleep, you'll wake up with super soft lips that;ll last.





    soft lips left a residue on my lips


    burt's bees only had a good feeling but did not do anything to moisturize, it actually made my lips burn


    chapstick had a residue too.
    best stuff ever is called LypSyl. its a pretty big chap stick, with an olive green top and yellow bottom. it has a bee slider thing on the side. you can find it ANYWHERE but i got mine at CVS


    its really light, and has a tingly minty flavor, and it doesnt make your lips slimy or anything. and its great for chapped lips too, it heals em fast.


    hope that helps :D
    omgg, chap aid!


    it has the black wrapping.


    it looks like thiss:

    it makes your lips soo moisturized.


    you don't feel any cracks or anything at all :D
    softlips - strawberry is my fav
    blistex, vaseline, rosebud salve, the body shop,


    lip smackers, etc.





    my favorite right now is the body shop,


    i have the mtv one and it smells really good :)
    vasaline extra strength its kinda greasy and will make your lips feel scaly so i suggest putting it on at night before bed. But after about a week your lips should feel a lot softer to the touch and you can start to use regular old chapstick
    omg i use a chapstick called soft lips and its the best chapstick ever it keeps your lips nice and soft and it comes in sooo many different flavors and they all smeel very good ! so definatly buy soft lips !
    coBigelow spearmint from bath and body works!!! AMAZING! heals chapped lips in less then a day. plus it taste great and smells really good.


    but if your not into spearmint they have tons of different flavors and all work amazingly well!
    My favorite is Soft Lips. They have cherry, strawberry, and vanilla.


    I love it, it makes my lips SO soft.
    Original Carmex...it is awesome.
    The best chapstick I've ever tried and use is Carmex.


    It cools your lips down. And makes it really smooth!!


    My favorite is the strawberry flavor. It smells delightful.
    I use Blistex Complete Moisture.
    I use regular Blistex, and I'll never use anything else. It's not greasy or waxy; it just soaks right in but keeps my lips soft for a long time.
    Carmex.
    Lipsmackers or blistex.


    If you dont mind the smell, carmax


    and vaseline should work.

    I put it on at night before I go to bed, and my lips feel great by the morning!

    What is the difference between lip balm and chap stick?

    Nothing, ';Chap Stick'; is a brand nameWhat is the difference between lip balm and chap stick?
    Chap stick is more of an instant relief for dry lips. Lip balm, on the other hand is more of a deep nourishing mositurizer for the lips. It lasts longer and is more rich. I hope this helps!





    xo tinkerbell xoWhat is the difference between lip balm and chap stick?
    As far as I know....Chapstick provides a protective layer on the surface of your lips while Lip Balm has moisturizers to soften the lips.
    lip balm prevents chapped lips, and chap stick helps heal chapped lips. i think!
    lip balm is more for style and chapstick it more for keeping your lips from drying
    nothing
    yah chapstick is a brand but it is lip balm so they are the same and do the same things. either one is good. %26lt;333 emily
    There is no difference. ChapStick is the name brand of a lip balm. The difference lies between lip balm and lip gloss. Lip balm soothes dry/cracked lips, lip gloss is usually tinted and makes lips shiny/goopy.
    Chap Stick is a medicated form of lip balm, but with less flavors.





    Chap Stick also has MANY more uses then lip balm.


    For example: Chap Stick can be used as a lubricate to take off a stuck ring, or rub on joints of tools that are begining to rust. It can also be used on leather as a buffer, or a ';grease'; that you can rub along your hairline when dying your hair. Chap Stick can be used to ease the pain after a nic or cut, and/or can relieve the pain of a sore nose during the extreme winter weather.





    Chap Stick has many uses!
    Nothing.
    Actually, they are the same thing, although lip balm is using known as being applied with your finger and ';chapstick'; is usually know as being applied in a stick. I believe this is rather slang now however can be very confusing - this is a very good question! Thanks for bring it up, I'm sure a lot of people are confusing about it!

    What is the best lip balm to heal chapped lips?

    Vaseline is totally the best thing you can do for your lips.


    Also a great tip is to exfoliate your lips with a damp washcloth and then put the vaseline on and VOILA! you have perfectly moist, healed, and luscious lips!!


    Hope this helped!!!!What is the best lip balm to heal chapped lips?
    I get chapped lips all the time and i find that carmex really helps. I have one for every bag literally !





    The cherry one smells lovely, or if you don't like carmex vaseline is just as good, theres all sorts on the market (ones with aloe vera, SPF, tinted)





    Hope this helps. What is the best lip balm to heal chapped lips?
    I've used every kind there is by now, including the really expensive one from Aveda. The best thing is to not let them get chapped in the first place. But mostly I use the flavored kind I get at Deals or the Dollar Tree. I have Good and Plenty right now. There are lots of other candy flavors, and that's what I like. For serious healing, Vapo Rub, but it tastes yucky. It's good for feet and elbows too. Just be careful to keep it out of your eyes. The store brand or the cheap kind at Deals is fine. Slop it on your feet, put on socks and you'll have really smooth heals in the morning.
    I lovelovelove Burts Bee's, anything works well, specifically the ones in the little tin circular container. You can get it almost anywhere as well.
    Nivea lip care essential.





    I have super chapped lips and this stuff is great. Makes my lips feel really soft.





    Vaseline is pretty good too. But i prefer nivea.
    I LOVE this lib balm called ';Soft Lips';. You can find it by the cash registers at Target. In my opinion is smells and works a lot better the Carmex! And I thought that was impossible.
    vaseline is the best...


    other chap sticks and lip balms work for ';quick fixes'; but end up making your lips dryer than they were in the first place.


    put vaseline on your lips at night and when you wake up they will be moisturized :)
    I use aquaphor by eucerin on my lips. it's like this petroleum-jelly looking stuff that's GREAT for lips
    Burt's Bees!!!


    It doesn't contain petroleum too so it won't pretend your lips are moisturized and then make them more dried out! Plus, its really cooling too!
    Vaseline With Aloe Vera


    It work wonders


    just put it on in the night and the next morning you have flawless lips
    Vaseline petroleum jelly. can not be beaten for healing put it on at bed time. (Gets rid of hard skin on the feet too).





    Use a lip salve during the day
    The Chapstick brand. Like the ones you see on TV commercials.
    Vasline with sebamed lip balm

    Beeswax Lip BalmWhat is the best lip balm for dry, chapped, palely discoloured lips?
    nivea!
    vaseline is very good =)
    the best lip balm is vaselene that i think
    Best I have found is called Carmex...it is medicated and also moisturizes the lips. It also helps heal sores around the lips, like cold sores.
    The earliest and most natural lip balm was beeswax and oil. Then came synthetic ones (I don't really know their names) like Vaseline and those alike.
    oh dear, this Q is quite tough for me...i have very sensitive lips...i've tried vaseline and nivea...none of them worked for me...i cant even use lip gloss and lipstick...i went to my doc and get a lotion/cream for me...
    take it from someone who lives in -30 degree weather. Dry lips and dry skin is a fact of life.





    I've discovered Blistex to be the most effective.
    There is no such thing as best cos the lip got to feel comfy enough... I have been using vaselene for the last don't know how many years and it worked for me.

    Try Vaseline, not bad.





    I always believe in Averine. Good lip gloss and lip sticks with ginseng abstract, long lasting too, keep your lips looks nice, juicy and wet lips.

    Why do my lip's skin peel off when I put on lip balm?

    I believe this happen before, but I just don't know why. When I start to use lip balm again, a day or two later of use, I the skin would crack and peel off slightly. When I tried to removed the semi-peeled-skin off my lip (without hurting myself), it then feel very smooth and SOFT. Do you have any explanation for this?Why do my lip's skin peel off when I put on lip balm?
    sorry, i cant raelly answer your question


    but to get rid of the rough lips


    take your tooth brush and just brush your lips! they'll be super smooth and its better


    than just peeling it off. btw try using vaseline (the jelly stuff) instead of the lip balm your currently usingWhy do my lip's skin peel off when I put on lip balm?
    maybe its an allergic reaction with regards to the lip balm you're using... or, the lip product you're using isn't right for you... it may be too harsh that's why your lip's skin is cracking and peeling off.. try finding a new lip balm that's not that harsh on the skin and contains vitamin E and SPFs for protection.
    Oh my goodness, thats a new one. Maybe your lips dont react well you the lip balm your using, make sure its a CHAPSTICK like blistex and make sure its an all natural one too.

    Is Blistex lip balm ok for your lips?

    I know some lip balms are quite bad for you and end up making your lips worse but is Blistex good????Is Blistex lip balm ok for your lips?
    Blistex is good. I love the silk %26amp; shine and also the lip revitalizer.


    Depends on how your lips are feeling?


    Another good one is carmex but that one is very strong, it makes your lips tingle.Is Blistex lip balm ok for your lips?

    Is there a lip balm that can make your lips lighter?

    I have very dark lips and i was wondering if there a lip balm that would make my lips lighter, not just lighter when i have the lip balm on but also light when i don't have it on or is there anything else i can use to get my lips lighterIs there a lip balm that can make your lips lighter?
    I'm not familar with anything perminent, but if you are looking for something long lasting try lining your lips with a lipliner and filling in before applying gloss and you will find it last a lot longer...i'm not sure of your exact skin tone, but you could try Chocolate Chip lipliner by Clinique.

  • Is it not hygiene to use a lip balm for long time?

    Because I would imagine everytime your lips contact the lip balm there will be bacteria and all that germs sticking on the balm. Overtime it will get dirty? Should people buy a new one every year?Is it not hygiene to use a lip balm for long time?
    How long does you lip balm last??? I use chap stick all the time and mine only lasts at the most a month. Most make up is supposed to be replaced something like every six months, so my guess is that it would apply to lip balm to.

    Does long term use of Lip Balm Dry your lips out?

    I heard somewhere that using lip balm/gloss every day over a decent period causes your body to stop producing natural moisture, thereby causing your lips to always be dry.Does long term use of Lip Balm Dry your lips out?
    some types canDoes long term use of Lip Balm Dry your lips out?
    no, i dont think so. your lips only dry out if you lick them.
    i think it is true...because i use to use lip gloss/balm every single day and they would always be dry but now i kinda stop and i really don't use it anymore only once in a while
    No, although you can become dependent on chap stick which will make you think your lips are dry, therefore increasing your dependency on it.





    There are far worse things to be dependent on, but that's a whole other question!
    I never heard that one but you can be addicted to lip balm!


    There is a website for lip balm addicts!!
    some can cause dryness
    You do develop a dependency if you use it constantly. I know people this happened to. Could be worse. Everyone is different, though.
    thats not true it doesnt dry out
    my lips look nuetral bueatyfull for look.
    some can but most dont the chapstick brand dosent just cut back on it you might be addicted!
    Which helps explain why you can diligently apply ';medicated'; lip balm several times a day and still suffer from chapped lips. The tingling sensation you get from those products usually comes from menthol, camphor or phenol. ';All those things are drying and irritating,'; says Paula Begoun, a well-known critic of the cosmetics industry.





    Alpha hydroxy acids, which were previously regarded as too harsh for the lips, have now been formulated to exfoliate this delicate membrane. Lip Revitalizer from Blistex ($1.89 at drugstores), introduced in October, contains two alpha hydroxy acids (lactic and glycolic acids) in a creamy base that you squeeze through a slanted applicator directly onto your lips. ';The whole idea is that it gets rid of flakiness on the lips and very fine lines,'; says Dr. Charles Zugerman, an associate professor of clinical dermatology at Northwestern University Medical School in Chicago and a consultant to Blistex. He recommends the product for both healing chapped lips and for ongoing lip maintenance. Be warned that Lip Revitalizer does have an enticing minty flavor that may cause you to lick your lips more, which only aggravates dryness (emphasis added by LBA).

    Burts Beeswax works great for me, i use it before bed and wake up nice and soft!
    burts bees wax
    You mentioned vaseline, but have you tried the creamy kind? It comes in a tube - like toothpaste does - only the tube is bigger. The creamy petrolum jelly solves lots of skin problems. It doesn't leave you with an oily or greasy feeling after application.





    Products like Chapstick and Carmex have too much wax in them to be used on a regular basis. They are mainly to be used for short periods of time. Blistex also is designed for short-term use.





    If you are outdoors, you might want to consider using something with a sunscreen in it. Winter wind and sun can really be a bummer when it comes to your face and hands.
    Burts bee's just got bought out by clorox-


    Dr. Bronner's is super awesome
    i like organic stuff i really like avalon i got mine at ll bean , but i saw some at wegmans supermarket it is an orange tube
    I concur...Burt's Bees is great.
    Neutrogena's flavored glosses in the little pods. Burt's Bees is awesome too. I exfoliate my lips, as needed, in the shower by rubbing my washcloth over them to remove any dead skin.

    What is the best brand of lip balm? one that does not make your lips even more chapped or dry eventually?

    are there any ingredients I should look for or avoid when buying lip balm? is medicated better than regular?What is the best brand of lip balm? one that does not make your lips even more chapped or dry eventually?
    THis is a great question


    Ive tried CHAPSTIK and found my lips NOTHING BUT chapped the worst they had ever been in my life.


    EVENTUALLY I came across BLISTEX, specifically the dark green one. It works everytime. Also, take note of your caffiene intake, when I drink more ice tea in the day, I notice that my lips are more prone to being chapped.What is the best brand of lip balm? one that does not make your lips even more chapped or dry eventually?
    burts bees is by far the best


    avoid parifin wax
    i like Blistex silk and shine
    I personally like Bert's Bees lip balm. Avoid chap sticks that have alcohol in them, since they'll just dry out your lips more and make you more dependent on them as a result. I've read online before that this doesn't actually affect anything, but I'd rather not take my chances. Blistex is really great too.
    The problem with flavored lipsticks/balms is that they make the wearer lick their lips and this causes chapping. So does certain ingrediants like those found in Chapstick. I like Carmex in a little jar. It's not flavored.
    I personally use Carmex. I find that balms with too much wax dry out my lips or irritate them. Godloveya.
    I like Carmix, or just plain Vicks.
    Blistex is the best and the cheapest I've tried it's only 97 cents. WOW! For best and fast results put it on before you go to sleep and make sure to put alot of it on so it won't come off and in the morning they will be nice and smooth, and I gurantee they won't be chapped. It won't hurt them if you just try.
    vaseline with aloe vera

    Would this ingredients work as a homemade lip balm?

    1 tbsp. pure melted beeswax


    1 tsp. honey


    1 tsp. pure melted cocoa butter


    1 tsp. vanilla extract


    1/8 tsp. vitamin E oil








    i mean would the ingredients all set together well?Would this ingredients work as a homemade lip balm?
    they are all cheap so it won't be a disaster if it doesn't go well





    make sure you use OIL based extracts (especially the vanilla- i dunno if that's oil based) actually, i would think of reducing the amount of vanilla- that's ALOT- almost as much as you'd use to flavor a whole cake and batch of icing!!!





    maybe try an extract oil instead... you can get them at the grocery store next to the spicesWould this ingredients work as a homemade lip balm?
    They are good ingredients but maybe not use those quantities. Have a look on google for homemade cosmetic recipes.
    yes the bees wax would cool and set.

    vaseline can be used as lip balm. As for how to make it, I don't see why anyone would go to the trouble considering lip balm can be as cheap as a couple of bucksDoes anyone know how to make homemade lip balm?
    you probably dont have all these ingredients right now though





    My recipe: makes 7 .15oz tubes





    1 1/2 tsp. Beeswax (.25oz)

    1 1/8 tsp. Cocoa Butter


    3 tsp. Sweet Almond Oil


    3 Caps Vitamin E, oil squeezed out

    I heard there is a type of lip balm that has cocaine in it which makes it addictive. which is it?

    Is this true and if so, how is this brand still on the shelves!I heard there is a type of lip balm that has cocaine in it which makes it addictive. which is it?
    I know Carmex is considered by many to have addictive properties, but I don't know of any lip balm in the US that uses cocaine. Maybe there was one before it was regulated (like back in the 30's or something) but I highly doubt that there's one out now.I heard there is a type of lip balm that has cocaine in it which makes it addictive. which is it?
    I've never heard something like that. If it were true it would be all over TV and the internet

    What's the best lip balm or chap-stick harsh conditions? ?

    I work in a freezer all day and I lips and the skin around them really hurts and is terribly chapped all the time. What's a really good choice for me.What's the best lip balm or chap-stick harsh conditions? ?
    I'm really fond of the C.O. Bigelow's Rose Salve from Bath and Body Works. They're about $6 but you can literally use it anywhere (works good on the cuticles, too)What's the best lip balm or chap-stick harsh conditions? ?
    I personally use Burt's Bees. Its a great product, most people can use it because it doesn't contain chemicals that react badly with most people's skin. The tingling is slight, whereas carmax is known feeling as though your lips are on fire. Vaseline wouldn't be too good, I only use it in the winter to prevent cracking of skin from the cold. Vaseline easily carrys germs--I know you don't want that in your mouth! If you're not fond of the tingle Burt's Bees even have a lip balm (burt's bees honey lip balm over the beeswax) that is smoothing. Hope I helped!
    vasline!!! it works cuz when you put at night and the next morning you peel it out the dry skin and its fresh. i know it sounds gross but it works!!! it doesn't only work on lips it helps cuts or damaged skin. you can buy it at target or a pharmacy. it comes in all shapes like small ones to carry around and big ones for your home. hope it helps!!!!
    i have had drastically chapped lips my whole life and i swear by this chapped stick, it has actually reduced my natural chappedness. i don't have to wear them as often as i used to.


    http://www.sustainlane.com/reviews/sun-d鈥?/a>
    STAY AWAY FROM KARMEX AND BLISTEX. I use to use them and they really have something in there that is addictive and makes you want to use more...chapstic is the best for healing lips as is sticks to your lips'





    put Olive Oil on your lips at home it is very healing...I am a pet groomer and hands in water in minnesota make for chapped hands and O.O. really helps....hope that helps you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Try Smith's Rosebud Salve which is available at Sephora. It can be used to sooth blemishes, rough cuticles, chapped lips, irritated skin, and to soften skin.
    my favorite chapstick is the new nivia one it just feels so much better than any other one i get it at walmart, right by the register and it's about 2.50$ but it's really the best one i have found
    Carmex is ammmaayyyzing it works like insanely good. Dont believe the rumors that they put stuff in it to make it addictive, thats total b.s!
    definitely burts bees they are the best natural products out their seriously






    Carmex!


    Hands down...it's just right for when you really need the moisture.

    this has some pretty simple ingredients. and i'm sure you can make other scents and/or flavors by using other extracts.





    1 tablespoon beeswax


    2 tablespoons almond extract


    3-5 drops peppermint extract





    Fill a small saucepan 1/3 full with hot water.


    Place all the above in a pottery creamer.


    Use a creamer because it's easy to pour.


    Set the creamer in the saucepan and heat the water until all the ingredients are melted.


    Pour hot mixture into small (purse size?) jars.


    Close tightly.


    Store in fridge.Can someone please help me find a easy home made lip balm recipie so i can make it for christmas?
    Base Lip Balm





    Recipe 1 (for Jars)


    33gr Beeswax


    65ml Vegetable Oil


    2 ml Essential Oils*





    Recipe 2 (Jars and Lip Balm Cylinders)


    28gr Beeswax


    20gr Cocoa butter


    50ml/gr Vegetable Oils *


    2 ml Essential oils (40 - 50 drops)





    *Orange Lemon, Mandarin, Lime, Grapefruit, Anise, Fennel or a small amount of Peppermint. We use large amounts of Essential Oils to compensate for heat evaporation.





    Method:





    Heat all the ingredients except any Essential Oils in the beaker or stainless steel cup immersed in a pan of hot water (double boiler).


    Stir and melt fully.


    When everything has melted, add 30 drops of each Essential Oil (or 60 of a blend of them).


    You can pour this product into a glass jar or professional lip balm cylinder.


    When pouring into cylinders, pour up to 3/4 full, allow to cool and then, after 10 minutes, top up (the contents will have contracted slightly).


    Leave for a few minutes before putting on the lids.


    Different kinds of lip balm can be made through the addition of other fat-soluble ingredients (see below). For every e.g. 5ml of anything else which is liquid you will need to remove 5ml of the Vegetable Oil. Most of the additional ingredients, apart from Essential Oils, will need to be heated with the main ingredients.





    Here are some examples of what you can add to the base lip balm to make the type of lip balm you want:





    Lip balm for sun protection - add Tiosol (10ml for sun factor 12, or 5ml for sun factor 5-6)





    Lip balm with Zinc - add 5ml Zinc Oxide (do not reduce the amount of Vegetable Oil)





    Tea Tree lip balm (for sore lips) - add 1-8ml Tea Tree Oil and 1-2ml Lavender Oil as your Essential Oils





    Vitamin lip balm - add 2ml Vitamin E and 5 drops of Carotene
    This is actually called Chapped Lipstick #2 in the recipe, but it should serve the purpose-





    Melt 1 Tablespoons bee wax and 1 teaspoon cocooa butter. Warm 2 Tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon almond oil. combine the oils and the wax mixture, and beat until creamy and cool.





    I also have a recipe for LIp Salve, Lip Gloss and even Apple Freshner, if you're interested.
    Vaseline + vanilla extract + drops of color to make it look ';cheery';. I made it once and it really works. It doesn't taste any good but smells delicious! Best of luck!
    check out www.craftbits.com they have a section on how to make bath products and you may be able to get a good recipe there.

    any lip balm the has petroleum in it can cause this addiction because it further dries your lips out, so make sure that any lipstick or cleansers, make up etc. and especially your balm has no petroleum in it (many or most do). Drink lots of water everyday to hydrate your lips. Good luck!How to treat addiction to lip balm, if i stop using it my lips turn into the sahara desert dry and cracked ect
    Ok, it is time to experiment. The lip balm is treating a condition. Use it and go after the cause.





    Do you eat lots of PEANUTS? If he amino acid Lysine is overbalanced by the amino acid Arginine (spelling?) then you can develop cracks in your skin and are more susceptible to stress reactions in the body like an outbreak of oral herpes, cold sores. Soy beans have much arginine too. If you could avoid these two foods for a short time and get an L-LYSINE supplement into your system for about 4 weeks, it could possibly be your answer.





    In times of STRESS your body is quick to use up its supply of B vitamins. It is now known by science that different people have different levels of requirements for different vitamins. For example, some diagnosed with ADHD, attention deficit hyperactive disorder, or ADD, attention deficit disorder, ( both misnomers, I am convinced ) require as much as 10 times the niacin as those considered normal. NIACINIMIDE is a form of niacin that does not have the unpleasant side effects of too much niacin. Taking


    B-50's or B-100's with plenty of water through the day can meet this need and also can alleviate other stress reactions such as cracked skin or stress water blisters or itchy inflamed skin.





    B -2 intake, insufficient to the individual's specific need, can cause cracking at the corners of the mouth. The B-50 or B-100 should also take care of that. We use them as opposed to individual B's because they have a balance that we need maintained between the different B's. Side effect, urine unusually yellow.





    B-5, or pantothenic acid, is the anti stress vitamin that you are concentrating on getting. So make sure that the B-50 or 100 that you choose is high in that specifically, over 500%, or 5 times the RDA or even over 800% or 8 times the normal.





    Eat a variety of colorful vegetables and fruits to balance out the phyto-chemicals in your system. Your body needs a balanced diet to maintain healthy skin.
    Could it be an internal thing? Do you find your skin dry? dandruff?





    You might want to add more EFA into your diet and try getting a more natural lip balm (ingredients such as Extra Virgin Oil, Castor Oil etc etc)
    well there is nothing wrong with carmex. its not like crack. just go to a doctor for prescription.

    What is suitable lip balm/conditioner for eczema patient?

    Eczema remedy can be a bit tricky, and finding a cure that will work for you is hard since not all treatments work on the same person. Try using vaseline to help moisturize and lock in the moisture. Also, ask your doctor for the best treatment to help you deal with it on a daily basis, since it has already become a bother in your life. Try http://www.skinoriginal.com/eczema/13-cu鈥?/a> for some great eczema tips.What is suitable lip balm/conditioner for eczema patient?
    Burt's Bees Wax.
    Get the brand Chap Stick. and purchase the medicated one...it's usually in a light blue wrapper. This is the best brand, I also have eczema and my lips used to be really really really chapped to the point where the lips were cracking and hurt! This chapstick is great!!! Also at night try applying some vaseline before going to bed, it locks in moisture and is great for relieving chapped lips...

    Am i allowed to wear lip balm while fasting?

    My lips reaally hurt! Does it break the fast?Am i allowed to wear lip balm while fasting?
    No it doesn't, as long as you don't lick it an end up swallowing your sweetened saliva. Gross, but had to say it. Just make sure nothing goes in your mouth and down your throat.Am i allowed to wear lip balm while fasting?
    Well, it depends on whether the lip balm is flavoured or not. As well as not eating anything while fasting, you are not supposed to taste anything either. So if you use flavourless lip balm then you will be ok, but you should probably avoid flavoured lip balm in case you do inadvertently taste it.
    No it doesn't so long as you don't lick the lip balm off when your feeling hungry lol.
    as long as u dont swallow it than its okay, my lips hurt like crazy too and i have 2 huge blisters in my mouth...............ouch!!!!!!!!
    I don't think so as long as u don't eat it or swallow it:) sorry i hope i kinda helped.

    Vaseline.How do you cure extremely chapped lips BESIDES drinking lots of water and using lip balm
    My lips were always chapped. I bought this clinique repairwear chapstick that I think is for women who get lines around their mouth, but I use it for my lips that peel and chap like there is no tomorrow. As long as I put it on twice a day (morning and night) It is a miracle worker. I havent had chepped lips since


    How do you cure extremely chapped lips BESIDES drinking lots of water and using lip balm
    First off, water hydrates the skin on your lips, then dries off to make them even more chapped then before. Lip balm/vaseline/biting the **** out of them worked for me when I had it.
    DRINKING WATER WILL NOT HELP YOUR LIPS.
    Eat healthily.


    Helps me...
    If they are that dry...get rid of any dead skin and try vitamin e oil or cocoa butter

    Are deodorant and Burts bees lip balm considered liquids according to the TSA 311 rule?

    I honestly do not know if they consider them gels or not. Anyway, you do not need them during the flight, so just put them in your checked luggage and you won't have to worry about it.Are deodorant and Burts bees lip balm considered liquids according to the TSA 311 rule?
    Yes actually they are allowed. One my flight to New Orleans a few weeks ago, I was carrying on a deodorant and it was in gel form, and I had it there to show them, but they said it was ok. Although you should go with a stick kind just to be safe. Also the lip balm will be fine.Are deodorant and Burts bees lip balm considered liquids according to the TSA 311 rule?
    Deodorant does fall under the 311 rule unless its in stick form. Stick deodorant is fine to take on an airplane, and the spray kind you can take as much in your checked bags as you want and only 3.4oz in your carry on. And no Burts Bees lip balm is not apart of the 311 rule.
    Rather than depend on answers from strangers, particularly when the rules change now and then, it would be more reliable to check out the rules at the ';horse's mouth'; by going to the TSA web site, which is www.tsa.gov.
    no those are fine!

    How do you make a lip balm?

    How do you get the ingredients to solidify without destroying them?How do you make a lip balm?
    i have a few different ways:


    --------------------------------------鈥?br>




    ONE


    1


    Sterilise some small glass jars and lids by boiling in a saucepan of water for five minutes. Remove any old labels from the jars.





    2


    In a heat-proof bowl place two teaspoons of beeswax, four teaspoons of petroleum jelly, one teaspoon of vanilla extract and a few shavings of lipstick to add colour (optional). Place the bowl in a saucepan of cold, shallow water. The water level should come up to about half way up the sides. Simmer the water gently, stirring the ingredients until melted and well mixed.





    3


    Remove the bowl from the saucepan using a pair of tongs and place on a wooden board. Let the lip balm set for about 20 minutes, by which time a skin will have set on the surface. Use a fork to break through this surface and stir the mixture until thoroughly mixed.

    Spoon the mixture into small jars. Wipe away excess lip balm from the edge of the jars and leave to set for a few hours before using. (You can write the name of the lip balm with a metallic pen).





    Strawberry or peppermint essence can be used in place of the vanilla to give some variety to your lip balms.





    Materials





    Petroleum jelly/Vaseline (from supermarkets)


    Beeswax (from health food stores and some chemists)


    Vanilla extract or essence (from supermarkets, extract is stronger than essence)


    Unwanted lipstick for colour tinting


    Teaspoon


    Fork


    Small saucepan


    Tongs


    Small heat proof bowl


    Wooden board


    Small sterilised jars (small jam jars, or from supermarket)


    Paper towel


    Fake flower and metallic pen for decorating the lid





    Cost


    Around $1.50 each.

    it's really good!How do you make a lip balm?
    I dont have any specific method...





    But what you could do is buy a tin of Vaseline, the pocket size for consistency and then use some kind of fragrance to give it a scent i.e you could add some cocoa butter to it...or whatever you like...





    Again I have just thought of this on the spot so its trial and error...you could always go into The Body Shop and see what products they have on offer and use the ideas/ingredients of scents/lip balms for inspiration etc......even try out Health Stores too...





    Good luck...

    Is it bad to use lip balm often?

    I was just wondering, is it bad to use lip balm too often? Even when you're lips are not dried out? I've been applying lip balm kind of often lately - mostly because I'm trying to use it up. And I just wanted to make sure it won't damage my lips or have bad effects.Is it bad to use lip balm often?
    Unless it has alcohol or another drying ingredient, you can't ';overdose'; on lip gloss or lip balm.





    Check the ingredients and if it has any kind of alcohol, it can be pretty drying to your lips.. So while they're not dried out now, they can be in the future.





    The only way it would be bad would be if you were allergic to any of the ingredients.. If you notice redness, irritation, bumps or itchiness, switch to another brands.





    Good luck!Is it bad to use lip balm often?
    ABSOLUTELY NOT!! IN NO WAY WILL YOU EVER USE TOO MUCH LIP GLOSS!! It's too awesome for that!! No, but really it's not bad for you. If you want to be sure you are being safe then I suggest you use a natural lip gloss. Like Neauites. It's the best lip gloss ever. It's the only thing I buy anymore. I apply and reapply all the time, and it never gets old! It tastes really good too. Since you said that you were just trying to use it up, and if you like to reapply lip gloss and want to be safe about it... I think you should try Neauties when you've finally used it up! My favorite flavors are Cherry and Peppermint. Everyone I know likes the Peppermint better. I like the Cherry because it's the only thing I like that's Cherry flavored. I think it's because it's made with food grade flavoring. It's made with real food flavoring... I think that's kind of cool! But, when you're done you shdefinitelyately try this stuff out! It definitelyately be safe to use over and over and over AND OVER AND OVER!! :)

    And, NO! Lip gloss will not harm you!! If it does... I may die sometime soon!!! :) Hope this helps!!
    No. Lip balms are supposed to keep your lips moisturized and smooth, so I wouldn't see any harm putting it on. Plus, it has SPF in it, perfect for summer :)
    Nope, it'll just hydrate and keep you lips from being chap.


    So its a good thing, not a bad thing(:
    LOl no i use it all the time its actually good for you lol protecting ur lips 100% lol
    No, I use it about eight or more times a day.
    no i use every five seconds.LOL
    um no lol! im like addicted to chapstick!!
    Heck no, they better your lips. (: I apply my lip balm every hour.

    sunflower oil


    honey (optional-i dont have my heart set on it-its in my kitchen)


    olive oil(optional-i dont have my heart set on it-its in my kitchen)

    your answers would be great!Homemade lip balm with these ingredients?
    It seems most people like to find a combination of ingredients that works for them. I once tried to make lip balm and the hardest part for me was getting the right consistency.





    * 40% (By WEIGHT) of your recipe should be any cosmetic grade oil that is liquid at room temperature (sweet almond, apricot kernel, avocado, grapeseed, hemp seed, macadamia, olive, sunflower, etc.)


    * 25% of your recipe should be any cosmetic grade oil that is solid at room temperature (coconut, lanolin, palm, mango butter, shea butter, etc


    * 20% of your recipe should be cosmetic grade Beeswax (white or yellow, pellets or solid blocks)


    * 15% of your recipe should be any cosmetic grade oil that is brittle at room temperature (cocoa butter, palm kernel, etc.)

    Melted lip balm out of shirt?

    A stick of lip balm was with my laundry, and melted in the dryer. Some of my shirts have oil spots all over them, and I can't get them out. Please help!Melted lip balm out of shirt?

    What is your fave lipstick, lip balm or lip gloss?

    Is Chapstick or Nivea lip care a good lip balm?What is your fave lipstick, lip balm or lip gloss?
    Nivea Lip Care is good stuff but Blistex works about 10 times better (I use 'Blistex Cream' daily as part of my makeup routine and make lips are always soft. For a treat you could also try Yves Saint Laurent Exfoliating Lip Balm, gets rid of any dry skin you may have on there.. but too be honest thats just an expensive way of rubbing an toothbrush over your lips!





    I don't wear lipstick, I find it very old fashioned and I always think its for old ladies (maybe because my nanna wears it?) although some of my friends use it, but its not for me.





    Lipgloss is my fave!!! I've been having an intense love affair with two lipglosses every evening I go out for the past two weeks..


    DiorKiss - Lucious Lip-Plumping Gloss (In Mango Soda), its a amazing gloss that isnt sticky and just looks fabulous (on your lips and in your handbag!)


    The other is Yves Saint Laurent Golden Gloss (In No.11) it comes out so smoothly and lasts all night no matter what you are doing! I went out for dinner the other night and only had to reapply once! The only downfall is the packaging aint that pretty, but never judge a book by its cover!


    My classic lipgloss is Urban Decay Big Fatty Lip Plumper, I always make sure I have a tube in!!!


    I think the most flattering colours for my lips are pale/frosted pinks, nudes and pale nudey-oranges!What is your fave lipstick, lip balm or lip gloss?
    yep, they're both good.





    I'd recommend Palmers cocoa butter, you can get one in dark chocolate and peppermint yuuuumm!!!





    Also, Lucas' Paw-Paw ointment is FANTASTIC, can also be used for insect bites, scratches etc. This would have to be my favourite as it is so versatile. Comes in a tube, under $10 in pharmacies (I'm in Australia - you could probably get it over the net I guess). HEAPS of people I know use it as lip balm and wouldn't use anything else. Lasts forever.
    Nivea lip care is a great moisturizer.


    Chapstick will always be the original and great for your lips.





    Lipstick - Revlon Colorstay lipstick (Wine with everything)


    Lip Balm - Blistex Conditioning Treatment


    Lip Gloss - Super Lustrous lip gloss (sweetheart pink)
    I use Nivea's tinted lip balm/gloss, the one with strawberry colour is very natural, glossy and moisturising and it's not sticky at all.. and it's cheap! i use it everyday to work.



    Palmer's Cocoa Butter - Dark chocolate %26amp; peppermint lip butter... I don't use anything else and can't leave home without it! I used to have badly chapped lips but that is definitely a thing of the past!
    Yeah they are good but I'm addicted to the Born Lippy lip balm range from the body shop they cant in all different flavours and are awesome on your lips
    i love estee lauder lip gloss


    it keeps your lips smooth and glossy


    with out being sticky


    and it's long lasting
    nivea is good id have to say my fave lipgloss rite now is covergirl Amazemint lip shine!!!
    Lipglass by MAC is my favourite
    I don't have a favorite and I use chapstick for my lips when it's cold or I just wear lipstick
    Nivea cherry lip balm is quite good.

    Why does Mentholatum lip ice sheer color impart a pink hue on lips while the lip balm apparently looks white?

    I'm just very curious because it looks like a normal lip balm-white colour. I tested on tissue paper and it left a pink stain.


    Contains beewax, macadamia nut oil etc and...CL45410Why does Mentholatum lip ice sheer color impart a pink hue on lips while the lip balm apparently looks white?
    Dunno! Where you wearing pink lipstick when you first tested it?





    oh, just looked up CL45410 and it's red. Maybe it's just such a little trace that you can't see it. Strange though!Why does Mentholatum lip ice sheer color impart a pink hue on lips while the lip balm apparently looks white?
    A product 'reacts' when applied, possible when in the open air this goes a little pink. You'll notice that a lot of products look different dependent on the person wearing them. As this is menthol, it's purpose will likely be to plump up lips and a little colour is part of that.

    yuck

    note:I never ';shared'; cosmetics with another person
    smell it, if it is rancid-- OUT!
    all lipstick and balms should be thrown away after 6 months





    I don't do it myself but yes they do expire just like food products as well as collect bacteria.





    but honestly who really throws away there best lipstick . not me
    never
    if it smells weird then throw it away!
    it costs like 2 bucks. buy a new one
    After 3 months you need to replace this.


    The germs you have put on the surface just sit there and reproduce.


    Icky.
    i'd get a new one personally
    throw it out!! after 6 mo, throw it out!!!
    Um, okay carmex dries out your lips anyway so I'd chunk it! Besides, almost all makeup needs to be thrown out after a year or so. It can go rancid and cause rashes and stuff. I recommend Burt's Bees because it's natural, easy to find, and good for your lips.
    well you can kinda smell it it will smell like not good (i cant think of the word, sorry)





    but just get a new one cuase sometimes it will like burn your lips.
    throw it. it shouldn't even be there for 1 year.
    I'd say a maximum of 12 months from the time you use it the first time. Thats what it usually is for lip balm from the ones i've used and it says on the labelling as well.





    If you're not sure whento throw out check the labelling...it usually has a symbol on it to show how long the lip balm lasts for beforeyou should chuck it out.
    if it starts to get a weird taste, toss it...





    i wouldnt risk it and just buy a new one
    After a year is pushing it.


    Get a new one.


    :)
    years?! i only keep mine for a few months but i use lip balm often so i run out pretty quickly
    Lip balm does in fact go bad. You should throw it out, and buy a new one. It will taste funny and probably dry out your lips.
    No more than a year! The active ingredients in there loose their compisitons after that time... depending on the ingredients
    i dont think u should risk it jus throw it away n buy a new one
    no i wuld jus get a new and better lip balm--and throw dat1 out!
    A good idea is to toss your lip balm the same time you toss out your toothbrush, and throw out your cosmetics (blush,rouge, lipstick,eyeliner, mascera, ect.) each month, each other month- just all of them as fresh as possible, to prevent gum infection, eye infection, pimples/zits, ect.


    All the best to you.

    I'd prefer if it smelled good, and I won't need to buy it online.Is there a type of lip balm that's cheap and has a somewhat glossy look?
    Carmex has a glossy look to it. Soft Lips has a glossy look to it and it smells really good. You can buy it at any drugstore and it only costs $2.Is there a type of lip balm that's cheap and has a somewhat glossy look?
    Chap-Stick, the brand. It works for some people, it might not work for you. I think it's glossy; it makes your lips shiny. Blistex also makes your lips shiny, and it smells AMAZING. I have the berry kind, and the smell is sweet, but sometimes it's a bit strong. Their Strawberry Banana, which is limited edition (you can probably still get it at Target in a pack), smells less strong and it works. For a pack, it's about $3.


    Nivea is a VERY good moisturizing lip balm. It costs about $2. Just put it on at night and your lips will become soft and nice!


    Soft Lips is also a great alternative. I've used up two tubes, but mostly because it didn't moisturize my lips. I kept reapplying, and it was also very shiny and nice.


    You could also use Vaseline/petroleum jelly to make it shiny. If you want some color, you could mix Vaseline with a pigment.


    The link below is a tutorial for the Vaseline and pigment gloss.


    Good luck and happy hunting!
    I use Lucas' Paw-Paw Ointment. It's supposed to be for Burns, Cuts, etc, but it's really good for chapped lips. It's really glossy and lasts a long time - I love-love-love it! Makeup Artists actually reccomended this in Magazines, and I had to try it :)


    It doesn't smell that nice though... Try it anyway, it's perfect.

    The most easily accessable choice is covergirl lipslicks. I am not a fan of covergirl but these have been a fav for years. They come in several shades and look like lipstick but give you just a kiss (no pun intended) of color and i love the feel not sticky and not too dry.

    Don't use anything with petroleum. the burts bees %26amp; cocoa butter based ones are the best. Aquafina is come out with a new one that's good too.
    Burts Bee's expensive, but well worth it.


    the mintiness is invigorating and it lasts a very very long time.

    Lips balms go through a bad time during cold and dry months, so they used for remedies your lips, lip gloss not just lends a moisturizing effect to your lips, but also makes it appear luscious, and Chapstick lip balm is a highly toxic skin care product.
    Clear lip gloss has no flavor. But if you are trying to fix chapped lips Carmax is the best its cheap .94 cents. It has been around for ages. I like the cherry flavor.

    Trust me, it does *not* look as red when you put it on as it does in the jar. In fact, at first I was a little disappointed because I thought it would be darker. But I have grown to love this product. It's very sheer and is perfect when I don't want to put on make up and just want to add a little color. It is not sticky at all. In fact, in a time crunch, I've even used it on my cheeks as a cream blush. Good, good stuff!

    Does lip balm make anyone else break out into cold sores?

    I was just wondering if this happened to anyone else and if anyone knew why lip balm would cause cold sores. It seems that every time I apply lip balm I get a cold sore.Does lip balm make anyone else break out into cold sores?
    stop using the off brand stuff. you have to get carmex or blistex. maybe chapstick as wellDoes lip balm make anyone else break out into cold sores?
    Lip balm does not cause cold sores. They are caused by a virus. However, if you use the lip balm while you have a cold sore and then use it again after it's healed, you could be reinfecting yourself because the virus gets on the balm. Throw it away, get a new one, and don't use it when you have a cold sore. You could also avoid it by getting one of the pot ones like carmex or any others in the little pots because you apply it with your fingers instead of directly to your lips, where an existing sore will cause cross contamination. Just make sure you wash your hands after applying so you don't transfer any virus on your hands to the pot the next time you use it.

    Are you addicted to lip balm? Can you not survive without it?

    About 15 years ago when I used to stand at bus stops in the winter I got very sore and dry cracked lips. I started using lip balm then and have done ever since. I apply it several times throughout every day winter and summer, and a day where I forget to take lip balm to work is not a pleasant once.





    Is there any anyone else out there?Are you addicted to lip balm? Can you not survive without it?
    Yes oh yes!





    I have been 'addicted' to lip balm for nearly 20 years. If I ever went anywhere without one I was not a pleasant person to be around and my lips would start to sting. However, 3 months ago I decided I wanted to get rid of it. My boyfriend always used to complain it was greasy when he kissed me and I noticed there was always grease around my glass.





    I tried not taking one with me but that didn't work - I just wanted it more.





    So I made my self wait as long as I could before using it. As long as I had one with me I was able to go longer, a few hours at a time. Then I only allowed my self to use it once a day.





    Then one day I realised I couldn't remember the last time I had used it - at least a couple of days and it just got better from there. 12 days is my best so far - then I needed it, but I am on day 10 at the mo. Nearly 'cracked' this morning but I resisted.





    It is a real addiction and therefore - IT CAN BE BEAT%26gt; lol





    Apparently the more you use it, the less your lips produce their own moisture.Are you addicted to lip balm? Can you not survive without it?
    I am totally addicted to it even though I have really nice moistured lips! I think the best ever is Miso Pretty, it is available in heals. Also, boujours lip gloss is really cute, you can even get mini ones to attach to your phone as a phone charm- an absolute godsend!
    no...only use it when lips are dry...drink more water...it helps keep your lips and body hydrated
    o GOD yes i can't live without it





    w/o it i can't stop licking my lips then they get swollen and extra red (very ugly)








    it's my lifesaver
    went on holiday a saw a woman with terrible sore lips she had no protection on them ever since I am always applying lipstick or gloss and yes we are quite right to keep our lips soft and smooth and this protects us take care
    No but its nice to have smooth moisturized lips so thats fine
    im addicted to it,like today i didnt have it,my day was weird i freaked out ,I have to use it all the time!!!
    if i forget my lipbalm when i leave home i always have to buy another one!
    You are not alone!!!


    I go crazy if I don't have my lip gloss or chap stick with me at all times...
    omg! I saw this and I am the same way, my husband always makes fun of me because I have to have my chapstick, especially if i don't put it on before bed, I can't sleep! You are not alone at all honey!
    I need it coz I can't smile or talk nicely wihout it.
    thats an excellent way to have healthy moisturised lips! buy extras .. so u can leave them in office in case u forget to bring it along to work.
    U are normal because my colleague also cant survuive without lip balm
    Ladies please remember that in general men don't like kissing girls who are wearing lip balm - one ex boyfriend of mine described it as similar to kissing a slug
    My niece was, believing it would cure the terrible dryness and rash etc - but it was making it worse. Shes cured now lol
    My best friend used to be totally normal about a year ago, and then her lips got really dry over the summer. She started putting on Burt's Bee's and really liked the tingle on her lips, so she started putting it on every night. Then, she got into Carmex. I don't think I have ever been at her house when she doesn't put it on. I think that she is definitely addicted to the stuff, I mean it does feel cool! :)
    You need lip balm don't want to go back to having those sore cracked lips. Since using lip lift I have never had sore lips again
    i have to have my lip balm! :-)
    You must be my twin or something, I'm exactly the same! I started using Carmex lipbalm years ago cos my lips were rough and now they are always nice and smooth but I can't live without it! I keep one pot in my room and one in my bag/pocket and if I ever forget it it drives me mad, also cheaper lipbalms don't feel as nice on my lips. I have to fly back and forth from home and uni in ireland and when they had the strict restrictions on not letting anything liquid (even lip balm!) thru security it was sooo annoying having to go for a few hours without any lip balm, esp as flying makes your lips dry out.
    its ok to use it it helps mostirise the lips and they feel softer vasaline is also a good one
    god yes. actually i hate to think about how much ive probably swallowed through the years LOL!
    Absolutely! i've been using vaseline since i was about 5! if i don't have it with me when i need it my lips'l get all red and start burning me after about an hour. i just hope it doesn't turn out in a few years to contain nuclear waste or crushed up kittens cos i go through a tin every couple of weeks!
    I have been using it for about 25 years and couldn't be without it.On the occasional day that I go out without it I am so uncomfortable and my lips are so dry. I carry one in my handbag and put one in my pocket every day. I am not into makeup though.

    How much is Burt Bee's lip balm and where can I find it?

    I have heard it does wonder, but I can seem to find it any where?How much is Burt Bee's lip balm and where can I find it?
    It's $2.99 and you can get off of their website, Target, or Bath %26amp; Body Works.How much is Burt Bee's lip balm and where can I find it?
    I think around $4, and along with what the others said, Walden Books and Borders Books sells Burt's Bees products too.
    Cracker Barrell sells a lot of Burt's Bees stuff, but I don't know how much they cost.
    From most stores its about $3.99 Cvs, walgreens, rite aid etc......
    I dont know how much it costs, but ive seen it at Mejier and Walmart and Target...places that are everywhere....you could also try to see if burt bees lip balm has a website.
    Places like walgreens has it, $3.99


    However it has some gross ingredients like lanolin (sheep oil) beeswax, and some contain carmine (an ingredient derived from insects)





    I use http://Simply-Minerals.com lip balm, it's vegan and works BETTER then burt's bees! I LOVE it!





    http://noflash.simply-minerals.com/
    It does do wonders and it's not that expensive just a few dollars. You can find it at most Walgreens. I love the stuff. They have different colors and flavors as well.
    i've seen it at the grocery store, the one that sells clothes, and cosmetics too. its called meijers (but its only in 5 states) walmart or k-mart might sell it. i saw it as about $3.50, and their were a lot of varieties. the chapstick was i think around$3. i also saw it at Sally's Beauty Supplies, and i bought some, it does work great! its expensive compared to most, but when its cold out our lips need it. you can also look here....


    http://www.burtsbees.com/webapp/wcs/stor鈥?/a>
    I found a tube of it at Wal-mart the other day. I think it was under 2 dollars.
    I don't quite know how much it is but you might find it at: Rite-aid, CVS/pharmacy, and maybe even K-mart.
    I have found Burt Bees at Bath and Body Works and also at some stores like Rite Aid. It costs around 3.00 to 5.00 dollars and sometimes you can get it in a pack of three or more
    bath and body works


    usually $3 for chapstick idk lip balm
    Walgreens, Target, they have several lip balms, the chap-stick style balm is about $3 or so and they have tinted ones as well.

  • How do I make a basic lip balm, eyeshadow, creams?

    I just want to know what I can make (simple!) at home? Please give me recipes and website with tons of them!!! I just wanna try this out ; )





    Thanks : )How do I make a basic lip balm, eyeshadow, creams?
    Well, I don't have any websites, but I do have this:


    For lip balm, try crisco, a bit of gelatin (optional), vaseline, and flavouring with kool-aid or lemonaid, or essential oils. Eyeshadow requires a bit more work, so you'll have to contact a professional for that. As for creams, try mixing milk (or cream), vitamin e, and if you want, some thick (unflavoured!) greek strained yogurt. (If you add the yogurt be sure to rinse it off afterwards)


    Another trick for a face wash/mask:


    Make oatmeal from PLAIN oatmeal mix and hot water, and strain out all of the oats with a sifter, so you are left with the pasty liquid. Apply to skin, let dry, and rinse off.


    Hope this is helpful, and have fun! Haha

    I would suggest Burt's Bee's it does hurt your lips a little if they're chapped but otherwise it's a great lip balm
    I really like the original Burts Bees or Chapstik in Vanilla Mint. They both smell and work really well.
