all the chapstick users in the house say HEY!!!!

what kind do you use?

right now i'm using softlips (wtf?) raspberry flavored, with spf 20. it works all right. i certainly don't get the same tingly "it's working" feeling from it that i get from, say, that blue tub kind. you know, the kind with the red cross on it. i used to have burt's bees, but i can't find it. i liked that a lot, but i needed to get some and target didn't have BB.

I never used to have to use it, but after going on accutane I have had to use it ever since. I hate it

we represent Accutane in a couple of mass tort cases. it's not pretty what's happened to some of the people who've used it.

Carrie, child, how much do I love thee? these threads rawk.

I am a chapstick/lip plumper whore. I swear if you looked in my bag you'd think Sephora threw up in it. right now I have, Bath and Body Works Vanilla Sugar chapstick, Lip Fusion XL, regular cherry chapstick, a tinted Burt's Bees chapstick and a tube of regular Vaseline chapstick.

Wow, Jazzy! I hate to say this but you act more like a girly girl than I do and I've had children

Back to the question. I use the Vaseline chapstick.
By the way Jazzy, does the lip plumpers work? Do they hurt or sting when you use them?

not to hijack this thread but... have you tried any of the topical acne treatments? they're far less harsh than accutane. i had a horrible outbreak of cystic acne (yeah sorry - major barf factor), and my doctor said i'd probably have to go on accutane. but i resisted, and she gave me two prescription topical treatments - and they are AMAZING. i use erysol in the morning, and clindoxyl at night. my skin has literally never been so good.

Is that what that is?

I use vaseline, bytch. Cheap and effective. Just like me.

Hayley? Is that you?

hehehe.

I really love this one that DHC makes, it has the perfect texture, and all the right oils. I use several, though, I'm a lip gloss/chapstick monster. I have one that has sunscreen (Kiss My Face Cranberry Orange) and a couple ones that are perfectly fine sparkly, while also being glossy, and some random ones.
I kind of have a fetish, I buy way too many...

I'm using something like the Raspberry, but I think it's called Crazeberry Chapstick. I never need it May-October. November-April, it's a must have.
