This is another great lip balm from Carmex. The Pomegranate scent/flavor is nice; not too overwhelming at all. I like the formula; it's very moisturizing and feels comfortable on my lips.

Carmex Everyday Lip Conditioner in Orange Flavor - swatches, pics, review


Hello, Beautiful!

Carmex is one of my favorite brands for lip products I can rely on time and time again to give me smooth, hydrated lips. One of their newer products, their Everyday Lip Conditioner, is my new favorite to stash in my purse. The one I have is Orange Flavor, but it's more of an Orange Creamsicle -- and I absolutely love the way this smells.

Carmex Everyday Lip Conditioner in Orange Flavor Review:
Carmex is one of my go-to brands for lip balm. Their new Everyday Lip Conditioner in Orange Flavor is one of my newest favorites and a must-have in my book based on the scent alone. It's a creamy orange creamsicle scent, not an orange-orange scent.

This does hydrate and condition my lips, but with how super dry my lips are it's not the most moisturizing out there, which is why I rated it a 4.5 out of 5 instead of 5 out of 5. Still, it provides great hydration and my lips feel silky after using it.

The price can't be beat; just $1.99 per tube. At that price (and if you hit a sale) you can afford to stash one in your car, one in your purse, one at your bathroom sink, and one at your desk.

Overall, I'd recommend this lip conditioner!

Carmex – Healing Lotion, Healing Cream

Hello, Beautiful!

If you already love Carmex for your lips, like their Moisture Plus Ultra Hydrating Lip Balms, then you'll also love their Healing Lotion and Healing Cream. Both deeply moisturize skin and smell great too! I've been keeping at least one of these two travel sized tubes in my purse at all times. They're affordable too - you can pick these up for around $0.99 a tube!

Check out my pics, swatches, stats, and review... click on pics to view them larger.





Carmex Healing Lotion
 




Basic Stats for Carmex Healing Lotion:
Formula: cream
Cost/Availability: $4.97 to $5.99 depending where you shop (5.5 oz full size). Also available in travel size for about $0.99 a tube. Available at Target, Walmart, CVS, and everywhere else Carmex products are sold. Click here for a list of retailers online and near you.
Packaging: squeeze tube with twist-off cap
My Rating: 5 out of 5 Kisses!

Carmex Healing Lotion Info & Review:
Carmex Healing Lotion is made using a patent pending process that delivers healing and moisturization without a greasy feel. Rich healing ingredients, including Aloe and Vitamin E, nourish and moisturize skin. Absorbs quickly.

I loved this lotion. There isn't anything bad I can say about it. It has a nice scent, although I can't really describe it, but I liked the scent. That's saying a lot considering I'm sensitive to a lot of smells. This lotion absorbs quickly and moisturizes my skin perfectly. There is no greasy feel and my skin is soft and smooth afterwards for hours and hours.

I'd highly recommend this!




Carmex Healing Cream
 





Basic Stats for Carmex Healing Cream:
Formula: cream
Cost/Availability: $4.97 to $5.99 depending where you shop (4 oz full size). Also available in travel size for about $0.99 a tube. Available at Target, Walmart, CVS, and everywhere else Carmex products are sold. Click here for a list of retailers online and near you.  
Packaging: squeeze tube with twist-off cap
My Rating: 5 out of 5 Kisses

Carmex Healing Cream Info & Review:
Carmex Healing Cream is made using a patent pending process that delivers concentrated healing and moisturization of your driest, roughest skin. Use on hands, feet, elbows and knees. 9 healing ingredients penetrate and help repair your very dry, rough and/or cracked skin.

Like the Carmex Healing Lotion, the Healing Cream is just as great. The difference being that the Healing Cream is more for targeted use --- for use on rough spots mostly. Because it's a concentrated formula you only need a small amount to get the job done. It absorbs quickly and has a nice scent - and again, I can't really describe the scent, but I like it!

I'd highly recommend this product!

Carmex Moisture Plus Ultra Hydrating Lip Balm Review:
These lip balms are a fantastic buy! Besides needing the basic clear version, the tinted versions are perfect for those days where you just want a tiny bit of color but also want your lips to stay hydrated.

If you're already a fan of the original Carmex lip balms, you're going to love these!

Out of the five shade I have, which include a clear shade, my favorites are Peach and Berry -- but I honestly like them all!

Overall, I'd highly recommend picking up one or two, or all five!
