Lip Service - Chapstick Review!!

I'm excited to bring you guys my very first review! This is something I use all day everyday ! So with the help of my best guy friend Oz we did ourselves a little review on 4 top brand chapsticks/lip balms !  We rated them on a scale of 1-5 Stars being 1 is the worst & 5 is the best!

 
EOS, Blistex, Chapstick, & Aquafina
 
 
 
EOS(Evolution of Smooth) in Lemon Drop - Walgreens for $3.29
2 STARS
I've heard people swear by this stuff and I thought the packaging was cool & unique but honestly that's about it for me. It was slightly disappointing.
 
CONS
  • It felt dry on my lips compared to the others, I couldn't just rub my lips together and get that super moisturizing feeling.
  • The lip moisture that it did put off didn't last
  • I bought this  particular one I bought because of the Lemon flavoring but that was also lacking.
PROS
  • The unique packaging is cute & convenient . I really like the sphere shape.
  • SPF 15. I am all about the sun protection
It just wasn't what I expected...if I ran across one that said intense moisture I would probably buy it to see if there were actually any difference.
 
 
 
Chapstick in Green Apple - Walgreens for $1.59
5 STARS
I've been using this for over a year. And I've even got my Fiancé hooked. He steals mine when he loses his. I have no cons on this one just pros.
 
PROS
  • SPF 15
  • Lips stay moisturized for hours
  • Smells & taste yummy
  • Inexpensive & found everywhere
  • Man Friendly
Bottom line I will be purchasing this over & over. I'm looking at two tubes right now. We love this & it isn't going anywhere.
 
 
Blistex Silk & Shine - Walmart for $1.97
5 STARS
I've been using this for years ! Since high school. Its got me through many hot Florida summers in the sun and cold winters. This is my personal favorite !!
 
CONS
  • It can be a little oily if over applied
PROS
  • SPF 15
  • VERY Moisturizing
  • Smells Good
  • Adds shine to your lips without making lips sticky
 
 
Aquafina Hydrating Lip Balm (4 Pack) $4.85 Ebay
 
4 STARS
 
I've only been using this product for a few months . I picked it up at Walmart out of randomness and I like it. This was Oz's favorite . I kept the fruity flavors and he left here with the original in his pocket . The only reason this one recived 4 stars was for the lack of SPF :(
 
CONS
  • No SPF
  • The fruity "flavors" aren't really that fruity
PROS
  • Moisture stays
  • The refreshing feeling that it gives off also stays awhile
  • Variety of flavors all in one pack
  • Guy Friendly
 
I hope this was helpful and leave me a comment below and tell me your experience with these products or others !
 
XOXO ash.
