subject: Flavored Lip Balm In Many Varieties [print this page] As new uses for lip balm are invented, so the new Flavored Lip Balm trend becomes more and more of a craze.
There are different kinds of lip balms that are made using different ingredients. Some are made with petroleum jelly whilst others rely on natural ingredients like beeswax.
Whilst lip gloss and lipstick serve a cosmetic function, lip balm not only adds a sheen to the lips and prevents chapping, but also protects the sensitive skin of the lips from the sun's harsh rays.
America's ChapStick manufactures many types of lip balms with different varieties to suit various consumers. There are natural lines that include fruit additives, vitamins and minerals.
The latest choice line of lip balm is flavored lip balms which include flavors such as a variety of fruit flavors, chocolate, coffee and more.
Lip balm can also protect your lips from sunburn and most lip balms have a sun protection factor of 4. Special sun car ranges have sun block of up to SPF 25 and more and soothing and protecting ingredients such as vitamin E and aloe Vera.
Medicated lip balms are available to those who suffer from chapped lips. These lip balms include menthol, camphor and phenol to dull the pain of chapped lips whilst petroleum jelly restores moisture.
Myths abound that lip balm could be addictive. However independent research has shown that users enjoy the softness of their lips and therefore experience not physical, but psychological withrawels from the lip balm. Once users find that licking their lips do not moisturize them, but instead causes them to dry out more and cracking, they apply more lip balm.
Lip balm can be used all over the home for a variety of uses.
Wild eyebrows or moustaches can be tamed with the use of a little lip balm used as styling wax.
Stop bleeding from small cuts caused by shaving by dabbing a drop of lip balm on the cuts.
Prevent wind burn on a ski holiday by applying lip balm to the cheeks and forehead before going down the slopes.
If a ring gets stuck on your finger, you can remove it by applying lip balm to the offending finger and then rotating the ring gently.
If you have a stuck zipper, rub some lip balm up and down the teeth of the zip and then work the zipper up and down a few times. This will lubricate the zip and make it work more smoothly. The same applies to windows and drawers.
To insert screws and nails into wood more smoothly, simply rub a bit of lip balm over them first.
Lip balm comes in a huge number of colors as well as flavors. Try Cheetos flavor, breakfast cereal lip balm, root beer lip balm and the latest craze - bacon flavored lip balm.
If you can't find a flavor to suit your needs, why not create your own unique brand and flavor using fruit butters, cocoa, essential oils and other melt able substances and adding your favorite flavors to it: almond essence, rum essence, strawberry essence or whatever else your heart desires.
Pour the mixture into small containers and hand it to your friends as gifts they will treasure.
