I use Natural Ice exclusively for about 9 ears now. I started using it when I was snowboarding 200+ days a year and my lips would get horribly burnt and chapped......this stuff rocks.
9 ears???!!!

You guys better listen to the ladies now. I'd say Burt's Bees too.. No smell and no yucky taste.. Really moisturizing.. I think you can get them at the mom and pops drug store or a place that would sell organic foods and vitamins and what not like this one store.. shiz what do they call it again?? Trader Joe's there you go.. or Urban Outfitters sells it it's just a little bit pricey..

i stay away from chapstick/carmex. they have an ingrediant that makes you lips dry out. thats why so many people use it. if you use it alot, and have dry lips, stop using it for like a month and let your lips heal on their own. that stuff is no good. if my lips are burning though, i use that blistex in the tube (the white creamy stuff, lol), but not very often.

I've never heard of Burt's Beeswax or Natural Ice(except the beer) and have never had a problem with carmex either. Although the smell/taste isn't anything to brag about, it works the best out of anything I've used so far.

Burt's Bees is also sold at Borders, in addition to smaller shops. Check the website (http://www.burtsbees.com) and you can find out where to buy their products in your area.
