Carmex Lip Balm - 0.5 oz tub Review Summary

"Simple but effective" is how our reviewers describe Carmex Lip Balm in the one half ounce tub. This little tub of golden balm soothes with menthol and makes lips tingle as it goes to work on chapped, cracked lips. Our reviewers say Carmex Lip Balm works wonders on their dry lips, making them soft, smooth, and moist. And they just love that tingle! Men and women both use and love Carmex. A little goes a long way! But do note that there is no sunscreen in the balm so protect your lips with other balsm when in the sun. Comparing lip balms? Read our many lip balm reviews and choose one that's right for you.

So I went on accutane a few months ago and this is the only thing that saved my ridiculously chapped lips.  So soothing and made all the difference in the cracking and peeling of my lips.  Easy to apply, no funny smell, and does not have a bad taste if it gets in your mouth.  GET THIS STUFF!!

Carmex is a great lip product, don't get me wrong but I don't really like the taste of it or the smell.  Vasoline brand makes a similar product in the tube form (compare to the Carmex lip product in tube form) that I find just as good if not better without the bad taste and with no smell.  I find the...

Quick View

Carmex is a good healing lip balm with a tingle that I love. It helps keep my lips soft and smooth and heals chapped lips overnight.

Full View

Carmex is a golden balm that has a menthol scent and tingles on the lips, almost like lip plumper. It isn't fancy nor tasty but it heals my sore, dry lips and, if I they are chapped or cracked and windburned, one thick coat at night heals my lips by morning. This is also good for cold sores.

This product comes in a .5 ounce tub which I usually use, a .25 ounce tub, a tube and a stick. For the Carmex crazy, they are 4 and 8 ounce tubs as well. THAT's...

I think Carmex is like an old friend. It's been around forever. You can find it in almost every store. It comes in a small container, but last forever. Works great on dry cracked lips, or when I  have a cold sore I can always count on it. My teenage daughter won't use anything else.

Carmex is good...  it's clear and has a tingling sensation that lets you know it's working.  The only drawback with the container is that when you get low it can be hard to get some out.

Carmex to me is the best all around medicine for dry, chapped lips and canker sores as well. It has a numbing agent in it that helps to relieve the soreness while healing them.

I have always had a problem with dry lips. When I discovered Carmex, I couldn't stop using it. After the very first time I could feel a huge difference. I put it on in the morning and it lasts until lunch. While it isn't a delicious flavor or strong lip gloss, it is great for a natural, fresh look. I have tried so many different lip care items that have disappointed. From shines, to sunscreen, to anything else and none of them did anything near what Carmex on the very first day. It rejuvinated and moisturized my mouth which gave me so much for confidence to go out and take charge of my life. It... review »

My family and I started using Carmex after my daughter had the chickenpox.  We thought she got a terrible rash around her mouth after she was sick.  We took her to the dermatologist and he gave her a prescription.  The rash only got worse.  My aunt seen her and suggested using Carmex.  Her mouth started getting better right away.  We have been using it ever since, which is 16 years.  I would not use any other profuct unless I was very, very convinced it could work better.  It doesn't have a pleasant taste, but it's not awful either.

Carmex recommends using the product for cold sores, fever...

I used to have really dry lips growing up.  I discovered Carmex in my teenage years and have not used any other lip care since.  Carmex lasts a long time and gives my lips alot of moisture.  It leaves a tingling feeling on your lips that feels so good.  I used to get cracks in the corners of my mouth and this has stopped because of Carmex.  I want to thank the company that developed this product.  My lips are now soft and I love it!  I will continue using Carmex for the rest of my years because it is the best lip product available.  If you have problems with cold sores and dry lips, this... review »

I love Carmex. Best stuff ever. I think I probably have 10 tubs/tubes around my house. I can't stop buying and using this stuff. It's so moisturizing without being greasy! Not waxy at all. Plus it smells nice too.

This stuff is great!  Goes on so smoothly and stays put.  It can be a little greasy at times but is the best chapstick ever!

What is the big deal about this?  It may stay on your lips longer, but it stings and irritates them!
