Winter is coming (if it’s not already arrived in your part of the world). That means cold weather, lots of time indoors, snow, and dry air. All of which means you’re going to have to take extra special care of your lips. You can never have too many lip balms this time of year. I picked up ChapStick the last time I was in need of some lip balm.

It does keep my lips feeling moisturized, plus I get to smell the scent of cherry. I didn’t like applying it before I put on lip gloss – it just felt a little weird, like the gloss wasn’t going to stay on my lips. I’ve never had the problem before. I’ve always put lip balm on before lip gloss. It also doesn’t have any SPF, which I really want in a lip balm. There are ChapStick products available with an SPF of up to 30, but the SPF isn’t available in all their products.

I picked the cherry flavor, but it’s also available in strawberry, spearmint, and the original, all of which are ChapStick’s classic flavors. I think next time I’ll try the ChapStick 100% Naturals to see if I like them anymore.

Available at your local drugstore for $2.
