I really love this lip balm. Before I started using it I was using Blistex Medicated. I liked the medicinal feel of the Blistex. However, I was always have to reappy it, and it really didn't make my lips feel healthy. The Burt's Bees lip balm is wonderful. It doesn't have a medicinal feel. Instead, it is soothing, provides the necessary moisture needed, and makes my lips feel healthier. I am in love with this product now. I plan on buying many more to keep around the house so I don't have to use the regular lip balms anymore.

I admit it. I am a lip balm junkie. I cannot live without one and I use it several times a day. I have tried a ridiculous amount of lip balms and this one might be the best of the lot. It's not greasy, does a great job and I love the tingling sensation! Of course if you hate peppermint, stay away from it!

For me I am just not a fan.  wax is used to retain moisture, when my lips are dry i turn to a lip balm, and this doesn't moisturize it just puts a waxy film on my lips.  their pomegranate one is better.  But I have other faves that use other oils and a little beeswax

I love the smell of Burt's Bees Lip Balm and it works well as an overall moisturizer but if your lips are already chapped it can be frustrating reapplying several times an hour.

I carry Burts bees in my pocket on a daily basis. It is great to have it there when I need it and it keeps my lips in one piece all winter. It also doesn't leave my lips feeling weird or gross it just moisturizes and protects them from chapping without fuss.

I love this stuff.  I have one in every bag I own.  Alot of times lip balm leaves a gross aftertaste and this doesn't at all.  The best part is that I only have to use it once a day, it lasts forever.  I just wish it had an SPF factor involved.

Okay, this is the absolute best lip balm on the market. Bar none. I've literally tried every single brand (from the traditional Chapstick to Carmex to fancy lip balms in tins), and this is the best. It's just the right amount of mintiness, really stays on the lips to keep them moist, and lasts forever. I always have at least two tubes that I switch among my purses. I literally don't go anywhere without it. It only gets four stars for value just because it is pretty expensive, but it's worth it -- I love this product.

 This is the best brand of lip balm I have tried...EVER. And, as many below, I am somewhat of a connoisseur of chapstick/lip balm. I've owned the original kind as well as the lifeguard one (which does have SPF in it - not sure how much - but it doesn't quite do the moisture thing as well. And, it leaves a white coating on your lips. I'm not a fan of that one.) and also the honey variety.I think there was also a raspberry one that I had in a one of those little glass jars.

My boyfriend is not a huge fan of the minty tingle (I am!!) and he prefers the honey kind. I had a honey stick once and mine was not very smooth - kind of like the sugar had crystallized or something weird, but his is very effective and smooth and now I use it interchangeably with the original peppermint kind. We have them in every corner of the apartment and in a handful of my bags/purses. 

Great chapstick. Go Burt!

This is the only lip balm that works for me. I have chapped lips all winter long, and I don't go anywhere without it. The peppermint tingle is fantastic -- it just feels great when you put it on. I do have to apply it often throughout the day when the chapping is really bad; but when I leave it on overnight, the chapped lips are gone in the morning. Love it.

I love this chapstick. I cannot go without it. I will never go back to any other chapstick again!

No complaints, works well as a chapstick

This lip gloss comes off quickly in comparison to other Burt's Bees products, but doesn't sting your lips. I would recommend it to anyone who carries a small bag or wallet places.

We have been pretty much exclusively using Burt's Bees lip balm for a while now. Is more expensive than "Chap Stick", and melts in cars just the same... so be cautious with that. Anyway, whole family likes it and we've spread the word and friends like it also :-) There are different kinds of balm by Burt's Bees - the lifeguard kind is kinda white on your lips. They are all great!

Great product.  I actually bought the pomegranate kind.  The rosemary in it is a bit strong, but I enjoy the invigorating smell as well as how it just slides on my lips!  Great company.

 Most people don't think about lip care until they have dry, cracked lips.  Unfortunately, that was me when I first moved into the dry climate of Colorado.  I tried several different brands of chap sticks and lip balms and found myself applying them way too much.  That's when a co-worker turned me on to the Burt's Bee Lip Balm.  Finally, a product that I apply three times a day and provides me with hours of protection.  Now, if only they could come up with a chocolate lip balm . . . 

I love Burt's Bees lip balm.  It moisturizes fabulously and really dries my chapped lips.  I live in Central IL and the winters get so dry and nasty.  The wind really does a number on my lips as well as my son's.  We both use the product and it works great.  The one thing I do not like about it is the initial sticky, waxy feeling it leaves when you first apply.

I purchased this lip balm at a health food store Whole Foods in Chicago the very first time years ago. I couldn't believe how well it worked so when I went back I got some for my teenage daughter. She showed her friends and I got them some and so on and so on. Now, how ever many years later you can purchase Burts at almost any store thank God. Because I bet that I have bought at least 100 tubes of it and will continue to as long as the company makes such a great product.  You can't go wrong and won't be disappointed!  I have a tube in my desk at work,home , in my purse, car, in the bathroom and anywhere else I go. I will never be without it,     It is a must have!!!!!!!!

I try to use natural products on my body because your skin absorbs so much of what you put onto it. I like that this is a natural product, it smells nice, and it works well. I have the lip balm in the tin right now (see note below), and the peppermint burns a little. I don't remember if that was an issue with the stick version.

NOTE I- Read the ingredients! I looked at a few of the different lip balms, and I personally would only want to buy the plain types. The honey one has "flavor" in it, the pomegranate one has "fragrance" and carmine (which comes from boiling a certain type of insect)- so it is not vegetarian.

NOTE II- It's a much better deal to buy it in the tin rather than in the stick- when I bought mine, it was the same price for twice as much. The ingredients are slightly different in the tin. The tin is also takes a tiny bit more effort to get open than the stick.

For a good while, I had one in pretty much every bag. And one in my car too. If you leave one in your car, I would recommend the tube though because I've ended up with tins I can't open. Whoops. That's really my fault I guess...

But I digress. My little sister has tried the honey kind but it's a little too sweet for me (and I think the bottom of it gets pretty sugary). But the straight up beeswax is a good option. For every day use (and when skiing), I'm a fan.  It's a little waxier than the Dr. Bronner's lip balm or the Pangea lip balm, so I've been gravitating towards those lately, but I certainly don't complain when I end up with only Burt's available.

I really want to like this lip balm - it has a great scent/flavor and it's made by a reputable company (though now owned by -- eek!). It doesn't seem to work that well - it has to be really warm for it to glide and it doesn't really moisturize - it just kind of sits there.

Perhaps it works as a barrier in extreme cold or wet conditions -- but for general day to day lip softening, I'll stick with cacao butter, coconut butter and olive oil.

This lip balm is good enough to keep my lips soft in the cold Iowa months and it smells good, but not overpowering.

I'm wearing the stuff as I type this!  My lips get so chapped in the winter, not helped by the fact that I habitually bite on them.  The Beeswax Lip Blam usually has it all cleared up in a day or two.

I first found Burt's Bees products while working part time at Bath and Body Works. It was new to the beauty market at the time, specially for mainstream beauty stores. That was over 5 years ago and I havent stopped using it since! I love my Burts. I must say I am a chapstick addict and I need something on my lips at all times. People often ask me what gum Im chewing, because I smell of peppermint :)

Burt's Bees lip balm is pretty good stuff. It's made of beeswax, which I think is pretty cool. It works pretty effectively on chapped lips, and the pepperminty flavor is pretty nice. At around $3 it's a little bit on the expensive side, but you can get twice as much of it in a tin for the same price. According to Burt's Bees, it's 95.29% natural. Now that's precise!

I always loved Burts Bees Wax. I Always had it in my pocket since high school - long trips - Tahoe - Big Bear. But for some reason I just stopped buying Burt and maybe its because the stinging sensation went away when they got bought out by Clorox. Now I stick with vaseline and independant lip balm companies. I believe there is a company called ECO lips that makes Eco-friendly lip balm -  but I never found them anywhere but online. But that's going to be my next chapstick of choice! Sorry Burt, you've been helpful in the past, but I only use Eco-friendly laundry detergent from now on.

I love Burt's Lip Balm. I don't love that it's no longer owned by Burt, but the product, to me, doesn't see to have changed. It's smooth, mild and it smells good. BTW Lanolin is not sheep fat, but "wool fat" or grease that comes from the wool of sheep and is squeezed out once the wool is sheared.

I have been buying this lip balm for 7 years. It is a staple product in my life. It keeps my lips mositurized and I love the tingly mint.

I love Burt's Bee's products all around, but I know this one works well! I also have lip balms in abundance, in the car, 3 in my purse (for variety...gotta have it) and 1 in the bedroom for those luscious lip locks! I find Burt's Bee's Lip Balm is not greasy, it absorbs well and protects your lips for quite a while until you need to re-apply. I love it and use it often!

Although I have found alternative products to use since Burt's Bee's sold out to Clorox I would still recommend it if your lips are in some serious need of natural moisture.

I like this stuff pretty well.  When I used chapstick, I had to apply it constantly, my lips always remained chapped.  I can use this once a day and that's all I need.  My lips are hardly chapped, regardless of the cold weather.  The only complaint I have is that the mint is a little too strong when you first put it on, it almost burned.  However, since my lips have healed, it's not bad....and there's something to be said that it did actually heal my lips.

... and I've had my share of lip balms.  :)  Tastes good, too.  I got the Replenishing Lip Balm with pomegranate oil, but I'm sure all other variations are great as well.
