With the cold weather, it is important to keep your lips nice and moisturized. Rather than wasting your time with mediocre chapsticks, I will provide you with my very humble and trustworthy opinion on which ones are elite and which deserve jail time. 

OG Chapstick

• ⅖ stars
• +1 for nostalgia
• Would dry my lips after two seconds but didn’t stop me from buying it on every road trip
• Would sometimes melt
• Would serve a night in jail as a warning… do better :/

Burt’s Bees

• 2.5/5 stars
• Not that moisturizing
• I feel organic when I use it??
• Does the job I guess…

Aquaphor

• 1000/5 stars
• PRIDE AND JOY
• Bury me with this
• You will NEVER catch me with crusty lips when using this
• Most moisturizing, delectable, show-stopping, product

Glossier balm dotcom

• 3/5 stars
• Surprisingly not horrible
• $12 is kind of absurd
• Lasts a good amount of time
• Some flavors/smells are questionable (rose…) but some are solid (coconut 😁)

Carmex

• -7/5 stars
• So. Bad.
• Emma chamberlain had us all in a chokehold with these
• Gaslit myself into thinking it was good
• BURNED my lips
• Tasted spicy
• Life in prison. No parole. Solitary confinement. 

Laneige

• 3.5/5
• Fan favorite
• Looks very good
• Dries quickly
• Doesn’t taste the best
• Controversy for testing on animals… yikes

Vaseline

• 4.5/5 stars
• Reliable
• Good but not as good as aquaphor

eos

• ⅖ stars
• Not having all the flavors would keep me up at night – marketing scheme??
• Yeah just not that good
• Tasted scrumptious though
• Convicted of fraud and a solid 2 months in jail

Long story short, if you don’t want to look crusty, Aquaphor has your back and Carmex will stab you in it.
