TODAY’S POLL

LAST POLL RESULTS

49.2% of you voted ChapStick (wax-based stick) in Friday’s poll: When your lips are cracked, which do you reach for most often?

“ChapStick, more or less.”

“Icky and all, but gotta stay soft and kissable.”

“ChapStick’s been around forever — and there’s a reason why…”

“I’m a ChapStick connoisseur!”

“Several tubes of ChapStick — different flavors!”

“Call me Suzie ChapStick!”

“ChapStick lives in my pocket daily.”

“I have a stick of ChapStick in my pocket at all times. Colorado is dry.”

“I go for ChapStick — either genuine ChapStick or a knock-off brand. I always get some kind of roll-on wax stick in my Christmas stocking. Usually two or three! For really, really chapped lips, I’ll slather on a petrolatum-based ointment before I go to bed.”

“A staple in winter since I was little!”

“It’s a habit to use ChapStick during the winter, but I’m not sure how effective it is. My lips always seem chapped until spring.”

“ChapStick or other brands of lip balm all the way. Winter is NOT kind to my lips and skin. I pretty much dry out from December to early March. Give me summer and sweating ANY day over this mess, lol!”

“I have very dry skin and always have chapped lips. I don’t like lip products with any additives.”

“Bee Balm — soft beeswax in cute little pots.”

“A nice waxy lip balm with a little CBD in it.”

“Medicated is the best way for us.”

“GREAT LIP BALM FROM BEAUTY BY JENNA. WORKS GREAT.”

“Elizabeth Arden’s Eight Hour Cream is the very best to prevent and heal chapped lips.”

“Aquaphor is THE BEST!”

“I was addicted to ChapStick. Vaseline helped me get over that.”

“Vaseline Lip Therapy! ChapStick doesn’t work — it seems to only exacerbate the condition.”

“I use petroleum jelly on chapped lips and a windburned face.”

“Also sunblock… often due to prolonged sun, wind, and sea exposure… lately, Freaks of Nature is my go-to treatment.”

“Vitamin E oil never disappoints!”

“Serum.”

“Weleda or similar — no petroleum byproducts on my lips!”

“Actually, I use a variety of things. I grab whatever is closest, but I am studying herbalism, so I’m learning more natural ways to treat many things, including chapped lips.”

“I like to keep moisturizers all over the place — living room, bedroom, kitchen, and purse. I don’t give my 👄 the opportunity to chap!”

“All of the above should be a choice. I use whatever is near me if my lips get dry and crack.”

“Brazilian Kiss to be exact!”

“If your lips are cracked, your priorities aren’t straight.”
