I try to avoid chapstick with petrolatum (sp?), as that is found to actually dry out your lips and cause you to want to put more and more on... hence the 'addiction'
You're joking, right?

i dont know if its the petroleum that causes it but yes, people become dependent on chapstick, almost like sex and sugar , if you have it in your system, u crave more. if you dont have it its like "eehhh whatever"

I carry chapstick (or a variant of lip balm) with me all the time. My lips get dried out pretty easily...

Creamy? Chapstick isn't creamy. Greasy, maybe, if it's been sitting in the warm sun or something. Otherwise, it's just a very light moist coating.

1 by my bed, 1 at my desk at home and work, 1 in each car, 1 on coffee table, 1 in pocket at all times, etc...

One night when I emptied my pockets I found 3 chapsticks in my pockets.

don't use carmex... it only temporarily moisturizes, and then it dries out your lips and then you really do get addicted to it.

chapstick is okay...

i've been a loyal "lipsmacker" user since i was about 10 yrs. old. dr. pepper is the best flavor!

but this, by far, is the best stuff i've ever used... http://www.principessabeauty.com/baciome_tube.html
i buy it in bulk so i have a tube in my car, in my make-up bag, in my purse, at work, etc.
