Carmex For-Cold-Sores Lip Balm 0.25 oz
Carmex Classic Lip Balm Original Medicated Pot, Tin Can
It was created for outdoor enthusiasts and athletes to help keep their lips in shape.
Carmex Lip Balm seals in lip moisture and helps to prevent drying of lip tissue.
Suffering from chapped lips and occasional cold sores, Alfred Woelbing invented Carmex lip balm in Milwaukee in the early 1930s. Formulated with a variety of natural ingredients, the mixture was carefully hand poured into small glass jars, which Alfred would sell to pharmacists from the trunk of his car. Over the last 70 years, people have come to love the lip balm. Carmex adds natural emollients to your lips, while locking in your own body's moisture to help protect against chapping and cracking. Lanolin, for example, is a natural substance that locks in moisture. The lanolin in Carmex is easily absorbed into the delicate skin of your lips, where it provides a temporary barrier against the drying effects of wind, heat and cold.
