Carmex Lotion and Cream Review

I’ve been posting about Carmex products for years now. I’m so happy to be a Carmex blogger. This time, I received their Carmex Lotion and Cream (along with a bright yellow hoodie) for free to tell you about them.

Carmex Lotion Cream 240x300 Carmex Lotion and Cream Review

Carmex Lotion

I actually originally posted about these products in my Carmex Skin Care Giveaway back in 2011. However, they are still fabulous products and they have a bit different packaging to them. I still love the lotion and cream, for different reasons.

The Carmex Healing Cream is perfect for my feet. I like something a little extra thicker for them as they get dry and rough so easily. During these drier months, a cream is a must-have in southwestern Virginia. It’s great for my feet and elbows because it’s so rich. It immediately makes my skin feel smoother and softer.

I really like the Hydrating Carmex Lotion now that it’s becoming spring. I don’t want to wear something as thick on my body or in the warmer months. This is a good product for the transition period since it’s moisturizing without being too thick (unlike the cream). This Carmex Lotion is great for everyday wear and the scent is fairly low-key (which is great for being in the schools).

Overall, I continue to be impressed with Carmex. The Carmex Lotion and Cream remain fabulous products. The addition of a colored band across the bottom of the bottles makes them look every classier. I love how easy it is to tell them apart now.

WIN!

One Laughing Lindsay reader will win a bottle of Hydrating Carmex Lotion, Carmex Healing Cream, and a yellow Carmex-branded hoodie zip-up jacket.

Carmex Summer Lip Balm Giveaway

Carmex Prize Package 300x210 Carmex Summer Lip Balm Giveaway

It’s been a while since my last Carmex Giveaway. However, Carmex has the perfect selection of lip balms just in time for summer, including a new one! As you already know, Carmex is a great brand for skincare and lip care products. Their stuff makes my skin and lips feel smooth and soft. They keep me moisturized. So, it’s great that they make lip balms with SPF in them to protect our lips during the summer months.

Just in the time for summer and traveling, Carmex sent me a great package (pictured above). It contains a large yellow beach bag which is perfect for day trips. It can fit a towel and probably a change of clothes along with some other stuff. Plus, the handles are very summer looking. It even has a pouch which can hold my Carmex lip balms.

In addition to the bag, the package had several Carmex lip balms. One of them was their newest addition – Pomegranate! Since it’s a juicy fruit, it’s perfect for use during the summer months. It smells delicious. It puts me in a good, relaxing mood. Plus, it moisturizes my lips nicely. Overall, it’s another great lip balm from Carmex. Now, one lucky reader will win the same package I received!

Carmex Skin Care Giveaway

Carmex Prize Package 132x300 Carmex Skin Care Giveaway

A little over a year ago, I hosted a Carmex Giveaway. I’ve done a couple others since then. However, in that one I introduced you to the Carmex lotion and cream. They have been available at CVS and Walgreens, but have been newly added at Wal-mart.

Like I said last year, both products are wonderful. The lotion isn’t nearly as thick as the cream. However, it is still much creamier than some lotions I’ve tried (which were essentially the consistency of water). Both have a light and nice scent. They both last a long while. They even keep my hands moisturized thru several hand washes.

The lotion is great for this time of the year. I mean it’s not wintery cold yet (here). So, I can use the lotion daily for my moisturization needs. Then, the cream can be used for the driest skin I have (think feet). Granted, you can definitely use the cream now. I just think you need a creamier moisturizer for winter, so it makes sense to me that the lotion should be used now and cream for feet and/or later.

Plus, they now come in multiple sizes of bottles. In the kit I received for the review, there were two sizes of each kind. The bigger bottles are wonderful for my dorm room or at the house, you know a daily application thing. Then, the smaller bottles are perfect for carrying around in my purse or backpack. Would you like to be able to try the Carmex Skin Care products? Then, enter below!

Carmex Moisture Plus Tint Lip Balms Giveaway

It seems that everyone enjoyed my last Carmex Giveaway. So, I’m glad to do another a review and giveaway with Carmex. This time, it’s for the Carmex Moisture Plus Sheer Tint Lip Balms. I received both of the shades for this review – the Sheer Pink and Sheer Peach. Both of these lip balms work well. They keep my lips moisturized. Plus, they have a nice sheer tint to them. I can’t decide if I like the pink or peach more. Since they are sheer, they give my lips just a touch of color.

I like the packaging of the lip balms. The packaging is pretty and cool. I also like the applicator of the lip balms, you simply twist it up and apply. The lip balm lasts for a pretty good while, too. I can put it on and my lips still feel moisturized hours later.

With the cold weather here, these lip balms will come in handy, I’m sure. Overall, they are great for those of us who like to have moisturized lips, but don’t like to wear bright shades of color. Although, since it is sheer, I suppose you could wear it under your favorite lip stick or gloss.

WIN! THIS GIVEAWAY HAS CLOSED!

I’ve got an extra lip balm of each shade to give one lucky reader – that’s both the Sheer Pink and Sheer Peach!

Carmex Kit Giveaway

CIMG1889 Carmex Kit Giveaway

I’m happy to announce that I’m a part of Carmex’s Blog Squad!  Being a member means that I get to do reviews and giveaways with Carmex!  Yay!  How great is that?  Recently, I received the adorable makeup bag pictured above branded with the Carmex logo.  This handy makeup bag is packed with some great Carmex skin and lip products.  I’m going to review 2 of them!

The first product I tried was Carmex’s new Healing Lotion!  This product is great now that the colder months are upon us and dry skin is not far behind.  This lotion is non-greasy and absorbs quickly.  It contains aloe and vitmain E!  Woot!  It has a light, airy scent that it not too strong.  Plus, it instantly makes my skin feel smooth and more moisturized. 

I also tried Carmex’s new Healing Cream.  This is similar to the lotion, except that it’s a thicker consistency that is just great for dry hands, feet, or elbows.  I really like this product’s scent.  It’s a bit sweeter smelling than the lotion (not sickingly so).  It also does a great job on healing dry, rough skin.  I think this will come in handy for my hands this winter since they tend to get dry easily in the cold.

Both bottles have cute, attractive packaging that fits well with the Carmex brand.  Both products sell for $5.99 and you can find them at Walgreens or online.

 

CIMG1892 Carmex Kit Giveaway

The entire package I received from Carmex is wonderful.  The makeup bag reminds me of a locker thing I used to have in high school because it has hanger on it and a mirror that detaches when necessary (so you can always look your best).  This package contained the skin care products from Carmex and a great assortment of Carmex lip products. So, for the extra exciting part for my lovely readers…

WIN! THIS GIVEAWAY HAS CLOSED!

Carmex is giving one very lucky reader their own kit, just like the one I received that includes:
1 bottle of Healing Lotion, 1 bottle of Healing Cream, Carmex Moisture Plus sticks, and a flavored collection of their lip products in tube, stick, and jar! This kit has an ARV of $52.32!
