It's WinterTIME. What's that mean? Well besides -10 degree without the windchill EVERY DAY, huge coats, wet feet, and a foot of snow every where, it means DRY AIR. Dry air dries out everything, skin, hair, lips, eyes.... And it sucks. So my number 14 today is dedicated to something that helps out with this ridiculous winter dryness....
14. BLISTEX COMPLETE MOISTURE Chapstick
I think I like every single part of this little tube. The appearance is 5 stars: The color of the container is a brilliant blue, the text on it is an attractive one, there's not a lot of extra writing, since all the excess info you don't care about but they give you is on the BOX it comes in, and the color of the chapstick is just a simple creme- no excess color to distract or get all over your lips. The actually chapstick is also BRILLIANT!!!
It's scent is slightly minty... think vick's vapor rub, but not as strong. It also has SPF 15, which protects against the sunlight that streams in and reflects pretty bad off the snow, causing worse lip damage than before! It is also extremely smooth as it goes on, providing a nice layer of protection on your lips that you can feel right away without being gross and slimy, or leaving awkward shiny lines all over your lips as some chapstick does, or even just being really hard and crusty, making it difficult to spread appropriately.
LASTLY. This shit works. Seriously. I can put on one layer and know I'm fully protected in my long walk to Barnett. As soon as I put it on, I feel instant relief for dry cracked lips. I love love love love this stuff, and think it's one of the few things worth the price.
