Let me introduce you to my little friend Carmex. Expo let me tell you this is a life saver here. It is an excellent excellent product. It is topical lip balm so basically like a chapstick like product. But a little bit different on how it works and what it does for you. It has been around for quite sometime. Basically it comes in various containers sometimes in squeeze bottles. This is the quarter-ounce container. As you can see there has a screw top. Basically it just locks on. It is kind of nice to have it in the pocket to keep it together. To apply you simply run your finger through apply it on the affected area and you are ready to go. Carmex has been manufactured full time and on a mass basis since 1937 at the Carmex Laboratories in Franklin Wisconsin. Initially it was invented in 1931. They sold them at the trunk of a car by the inventor Alfred Wobbling. You have to imagine somebody who has that much time and energy invested to a product that is still around today must know something about what they are doing. Active ingredients for those who may need to know; menthol camphor and phenol. Phenol is an anesthetic. These three ingredients are what actually produce the warm clean sensation that you will feel on the areas that you apply this too. It is also actively working on your problems. Again this is set to clear out fever blisters cold sores and assist with dry chapped lips. Many users find this product again like I said to have that warm feeling. But they also find that Carmex works in extremely chapped dry areas of the body outside of the lips; elbows feet various portions just spots that maybe you know need a little more care. People use this and it actually works out really well. My kid had a spot on his foot and he worked on. And this did the job perfectly. Carmex was voted as the number one over-the-counter lip balm product by pharmacist of the United States in 1998. And is has helped pretty steady there. Again like I said it comes in various other flavors. This is just a standard issue Carmex. Here in Minnesota my family live with this thing. I have one in my pocket in my jacket; one in my laptop bag and one in my vehicle in all points in time summer and winter whatever. Minnesota we get below zero temperatures. We end up with wind chills of -30 -40 and I will tell you what; your lips get chapped whether you are out there in extreme cold for a short period of time or a long period of time. And Carmex is just something that every one of us uses. We use it on the two-year-old. we use it on the ten-year-old. We use it on the nine-year-old. Me and my wife use it. I wouldn t be caught dead without it. It is very inexpensive. I believe this container size cost about $1.25 between $1.25 and $1.40. You can buy it in mass packs of 12 at the pharmacy. It is definitely the way to go. This is me telling you from Minnesota where the winters are crazy. You need to pick up Carmex and trust it. It is a product that I would recommend to everybody. Everybody in my family uses it five out of five stars highly recommended.
