As someone whose health shows right on my lips, I couldn't resist picking at dead skin cells, leaving me with bloody lips when tired. My parents even joked about my emotional state because of it! I've tried many lip balms like Bioderma, Himalaya, Burt's Bees, and Vaseline, but some made my lips worse, while others just felt like they were floating on top without effect. (Vaseline, the hydration king, but it feels like it's just sitting there!) I bought Carmex after seeing many reviews and high rankings on the Hwahae app! 💛 Hydration 💛 It's truly the best, no long explanation needed. I bought it when my lips were a bloody mess, applied it thickly before bed for 3 days, and saw noticeable improvement... I ended up with baby-soft lips! Now, whenever I feel dead skin cells forming, I apply it that night or day, and voila - baby lips! 💛 Adherence 💛 Unlike Vaseline, it doesn't feel like it's just sitting on top, making you want to wipe it off! It sticks well when applied, which I love. I used to apply and wipe off lip balms repeatedly because of that floating feeling, but not with this one. It didn't even stain my bedding! 💛 Lasting power 💛 I apply a lot before bed, but it's amazing how well it hydrates and still remains until morning. It's the king of long-lasting lip balms! 💛 Cool scent 💛 I was really looking forward to this! As a mint lover who also likes tea tree, menthol patches, and tiger balm... At first, I could smell it, but now I only catch a whiff occasionally. I was expecting a stronger, menthol patch-like coolness. Still, it's better than nothing! 💛 Size and design 💛 It's a small, cute jar type. The design is adorable and top-notch. It takes up very little space, which is great! It's been about half a year since I've seen blood on my lips! Carmex, stay with me forever...❤ 🖤 Worried about bacteria 🖤 Except for Vaseline, this is my first jar-type lip balm. I try to wash my hands before using it, but it's not always possible, so I worry about bacteria. Still, I can't give up that cool sensation, so I stick with the jar type. 🖤 A bit tricky in winter 🖤 When it's warm, it melts nicely and is easy to scoop out, but in winter or cool places, it hardens. Since I apply a lot, I sometimes feel like digging it out with my nails! 🖤 The twisting part? 🖤 The seam where it twists gets dirty quickly. Dust and lip balm clump together there, so I have to wipe it clean with a tissue often. I think I bought a set of 2 on Coupang for less than the price of one. I couldn't wait for a 1+1 deal! I apply it about 30 minutes before makeup during my skincare routine, then wipe it off after finishing my base makeup, do my eye makeup, and then apply lip color. You know how lips need to be smooth for pretty color payoff, right? If you moisturize all the dead skin cells with lip balm, keep the inside hydrated, powder your lips, and then apply color, the result is amazing! I often forget to apply it before bed, but I make sure to use it on days when I feel dead skin cells forming. I'm on my second jar now!
