Chap Stick Not Boring Anymore By Sparkle333 on Aug 01, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Remember when you were younger, and the only ChapStick available came in that familiar black and white twist tube? It had no flavor added, and pretty much tasted like gooey Vaseline. Well now, ChapStick comes in a variety of flavors, with coordinating tube colors. My absolute favorite is Cherry, but in this muggy, hot summer Florida heat, I decide to try Classic Spearmint.

It definitely left my lips feeling cool and refreshed. And it tasted good also! It has a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of 4, so it is not just a lip protectant, but also provides protection from sunburn. There are so many causes of dry, cracked, and chapped lips. Sometimes when you've had a fever, your lips will be parched. Other cause are windburn and sun exposure. ChapStick provides a soothing balm, which quickly promotes healing.

So don't be so old fashioned. Break out of the box, and try one of their flavors such as Cherry, Spearmint, and Strawberry, as well as the new Flava-Craze ChapStick flavors of Blue Crazeberry, Fruit Craze, and Grape Craze. There's also a new Peppermint ChapStick! (Can't wait to try that one!)

Would you believe that there are also Pirates of the Caribbean flavors, Berry Bounty, and Tropical Adventure? And now there are Cars flavors Apple Accelerator, and Whizzin' Watermelon.

If that's not enough, try Nemo Coral Cherry or Nemo Wavy Grape. Or your "inner princess" might prefer Princess Ariel Blue Coral Berry, or Princess Belle Enchanted Cherry.

There are medicated ChapSticks, and moisturizing Chapsticks, and on and on it goes. One thing's for sure, Chapstick is not boring anymore!
