I've repurchased this a few times and I found it quite hydrating. Like all herbal essences it has a stronger scent that tends to linger in my hair which is fine since I tend not to wear perfume and my deodorant is pretty tame in terms of scent as well. I'm really only mentioning the fragrance in case this is something you don't want.
The shampoo cleans decently, I shampoo daily and don't find it too drying. The conditioner is also moisturizing, it's thick and creamy so it coats the hair nicely without having to have to use too much.
Overall a decent shampoo and conditioner to pick up when on sale.

Blistex Fruit Smoothies SPF 15 Lip Balm

These are alright, I found this on clearance at shoppers. They do taste good but they aren't as effective as most generic balms (like chapstick, softlips, etc). Their texture is good, not too greasy, not too waxy. I don't find they add any color to my lips (unless maybe I piled it on). Overall they're just okay, decent for maintaining moisturized lips, does nothing for when their chapped.
The only bonus is the taste and smell.

The Body Shop Hemp Lip Protector
I always used my friend's little tin of this stuff, it really does moisturize! I don't know why but I did find the smell retty nice, very herby lol. It was also very moisturizing but slightly greasy. Overall if you want to splurge that... +
I always used my friend's little tin of this stuff, it really does moisturize! I don't know why but I did find the smell retty nice, very herby lol. It was also very moisturizing but slightly greasy. Overall if you want to splurge that it's a great balm but I'm cheap so I never ended up buying one of these for myself. There are cheaper balms that are equally as effective. -
Blistex Daily Conditioning Treatment for Lips SPF 20
Worked just like Carmex, great for really dry chapped lips. Also I found this one slightly thicker then the other Blistex in a pot so it stayed on your lips better, not as greasy. Also the SPF is a good bonus, I used this a lot during the summer I... +
Worked just like Carmex, great for really dry chapped lips. Also I found this one slightly thicker then the other Blistex in a pot so it stayed on your lips better, not as greasy. Also the SPF is a good bonus, I used this a lot during the summer I did a lot of outdoor stuff. It's also great during the winter when your skiing and stuff too to prevent windburn on your lips. -
Blistex Medicated Lip Balm
Another standard lip balm, I would say on par with Chapstick brand balm. I find blistex slightly greasier almost like vaseline on your lips. I'm not a fan of the greasier texture because I feel like it's spreading outside of my lip line... +
Another standard lip balm, I would say on par with Chapstick brand balm. I find blistex slightly greasier almost like vaseline on your lips. I'm not a fan of the greasier texture because I feel like it's spreading outside of my lip line making it look messy. It's alright though, only good for keeping moisturized lips not great for rescuing dry chapped lips. -
Softlips® Lip Balm
I love the variety of flavors and smells of softlips and I like the skinny form for more precise application. Overall though it's a pretty standard balm, only good for keeping moisture in your lips, not good for rescuing dry chapped lips. I... +
I love the variety of flavors and smells of softlips and I like the skinny form for more precise application. Overall though it's a pretty standard balm, only good for keeping moisture in your lips, not good for rescuing dry chapped lips. I definitely choose this over regular chapstick just due to the scent. -
Blistex Medicated Lip Ointment
This stuff did not work for me, I'd apply it, it would sting, and my lips were still dry and chapped. I tried it just at night when I didn't need the added protection of a greasier balm and it still didn't do anything. My boyfriend likes... +
This stuff did not work for me, I'd apply it, it would sting, and my lips were still dry and chapped. I tried it just at night when I didn't need the added protection of a greasier balm and it still didn't do anything. My boyfriend likes it when his lips are chapped and it works for him so I would say give it a try it might work for you. -

When I lived with my parents they always bought this brand of lip balm. I find it's pretty good for maintaining moisture but when my lips were chapped it didn't do anything. Overall pretty generic, I liked the cherry scented one... but seriously when softlips is on sale go for that, they smell way better. -
Aveeno Essential Moisture Lip Conditioner with SPF 15
I really liked this lip balm especially the dial that pushes more product up. I found this lip balm was good just o maintain moisturized lips and when they started to get a bit chapped. The one thing I didn't like was the price, way to expensive... +
I really liked this lip balm especially the dial that pushes more product up. I found this lip balm was good just o maintain moisturized lips and when they started to get a bit chapped. The one thing I didn't like was the price, way to expensive for a lip balm. I received mine as a stocking stuffer but I never repurchased it due to the price. -
Blistex Lip Medex
I found it pretty similar to carmex just not as thick. It still did the job of healing my chapped lips. Although the potted carmex doesn't bother me, this one did. I don't really know why, I guess because it wasn't as dense I found left... +
I found it pretty similar to carmex just not as thick. It still did the job of healing my chapped lips. Although the potted carmex doesn't bother me, this one did. I don't really know why, I guess because it wasn't as dense I found left my fingers more greasy. -
