The colder air is already upon us here in NY. This morning I had to chip frost and ice off my car. I also had to wait for it to warm up before I could take my son to the school bus. Ugh! I’m so NOT looking forward to the Winter months.
Aside from the obvious… blizzards, shoveling, driving in snow… there are more reasons not to like the Winter. For me its dry skin, most especially my hands and my lips. I don’t know why my skin is more dry then others. I am fanatical about applying lotions and creams so I cannot understand why my skin is constantly dry.
I hate it when my lips get so dry that they crack. Have you ever had a cracked lip, especially in the corners where your upper and lower lips meet? OUCH! That is NOT a good feeling. It hurts like a you-know-what!
I make sure to keep lip balm of some kind in my purse, coat pocket, in both cars, on my desk and in the bathroom just to be on the same side.
I don’t need a lip balm that tastes like a cupcake or jelly bean. I just need something that is going to keep my lips smooth and hydrated. Flavored lip balms are “OK” but I prefer something a little more.
Carmex has a lip balm that not only keeps your lips soft and hydrated but its also tinted too, like a lip gloss. I like this idea much better then flavored lip balms. I’ll leave those to my teen daughter.
The Carmex Tinted Lip Balm provides you with the same great moisturizer as other Carmex products, but with a stuble hint of color.
Currently the tinted lip balm is available in a sheer Peach and a sheer Pink. My teen daughter flipped out when she saw these and begged me to let her have one. I figured it was fine since the color is sheer.
I’m not one to wear lipstick but I do like to wear a little color from time to time. The Carmex Tinted Lip Balm is ever so subtle. Its a nice option to wear around your home or running errands rather then applying actual lipstick.
I like the way this lip balm feels on your lips. Unlike wax based lip balms which feel “goopy” on your lips, the Carmex Tinted Lip Balm glides on nice and smooth and leaves your lips feeling moist, not waxy.
The lip balm also wipes off easily. You do not need a special make up remover to take it off, unlike some lipsticks which seem impossible to remove from your lips.
The Carmex Tinted Lip Balm would make a great stocking stuffer for a teen and it great to tuck into your purse to carry with you.

I would like to use the Carmex lip balm for cold sores the next time I have a cold sore.
The link went to a precision tool company…? Any way 🙂 I would like their lip balm that comes in a tub, simple and great.
