01 Nov (Giveaway & Review) Lip Balms for the Cooler Weather: Tinted Carmex Moisture Plus, Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment, Smith’s Rosebud Salve
Move over, chapped lips. We think that these products can really kamikaze their way to hydration with their ultra emollient properties.
Check out these moisturizing lovelies and tell us which lip balm you can’t live without:
Carmex Moisture Plus New Tinted Lip Balms:
The two new shades are ultra-hydrating lip balms with tints of sheer color (sheer pink and sheer peach). A watershed moment in the history of the company, this is the first time Carmex has added color to its products.
Our verdict? The blend of vitamin E, aloe, shea butter avocado butter also contains SPF 15, and the balms moisturize like nothing else. For $2.99, your lips will avoid “cracked” status, and you can find them at your local Walgreens or Walgreens.com.
We love the slanted tip that makes for easy application.
Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15:
This classic will always be a staple in our books. This hydrating treatment nourishes and protects, plus its delicious combination of waxes and oils and real sugar gives you an exfoliating treatment plus a moisturizing component.
This product is paraben free, contains SPF 15, and retails for $22.50.
Rosebud Perfume Company, Three Lavish Layers of Lip Balm:
To be perfectly honest, when I first encountered the pale rose stuff found in the vintage, puck-sized Smith’s Rosebud Salve tin, I was beyond addicted.
Now, Sephora has a neat threesome of the lip balms in Strawberry, original Rosebud Salve and Minted Rose. You’ll never want to share…
$16 at Sephora.com only.
Tell us, which lip balms can you not live without? We are giving away THREE sets of the new Tinted Carmex Moisture Plus lip balms to lucky winners (each one gets TWO of the new tinted balms), so don’t be shy to enter your responses below.

Posted at 01:46h, 02 NovemberLove the feeling of the rosebud salve, but I only like the strawberry salve smell! My favorite is the Blistex Lip Ointment that comes in that little blue jar or the white tube! Tingles and really works!

Posted at 02:20h, 02 NovemberI’ve been using Burt’s Bees Replenishing Lip Balm (with pomegranate oil) for the past couple of years. Burt’s Bees also makes a Lip Shimmer that combines lip balm with a tint. My favorite shade is Fig. It’s great! Two in one! I live in a VERY dry climate so my lipstick stays on for all of 10 minutes before I have to start using lip balm. The Lip Shimmer lets me have both hydration and color.
