The very best lip balm is Cocoa Butter Lip Balm by "Cococare! The cost is only $1.99 at any beauty supply store. It is rich and creamy and repaired my slightly dry lips over night... and I've tried all those mentioned above.

I might try the Rose Salve and Beecology based on this, but I'm very disappointed that Burt's Bees -- my staple -- isn't mentioned.

Wish I'd read this before ordering one of the balms on the worst list. I haven't received it yet. I'll have to let you know if I too think it's the worst

The Juice Beauty brand is a mixed bag: some things suck and others are great.
