My handbag hero… Carmex Moisture Plus!
I thought I’d make a confession to you all… I would literally be lost without my Carmex Moisture Plus on me!! I’ve been wearing it literally every single day since I got it. A lot of you may know that I’m a HUGE Carmex fan. It genuinely is the only lip balm which works for me - I know a lot of make-up artists would agree! It doesn’t leave my lips feeling like there’s a thick layer (or more like wall) of balm on my lips - which Vaseline does. I was waiting for ages for Carmex to bring out new products & my prayers finally got answered!

Say hello to my handbag hero, Carmex Moisture Plus! It’s Carmex’s new tinted lip balms. Not only are these packed with Vitamin E, aloe & shea butter but they also comes with an SPF 15! If you know me, you’ll know how I absolutely love my SPFs, I dont leave the house without it on (even in the winter!). The packaging is SUPER different to their original range. There is no sign of their cult yellow colour on here but, I like it! It gives the product a sophisticated edge to it. I’m a lover of all things gold & this slightly rose gold stick is very cute!
The sticks have a SLANTED tip which makes application effortless. I find that lip products with this ‘slant’ help me get it on really neatly!
As you can see it comes in 3 TINTS. Clear, peach & pink. One reason I love wearing these is because you can build the colour up by applying it liberally. So not only are you set for the day but you’re also set for the night
Here’s a swatch of the PEACH. I can see this being my go to product for the colder & darker months.
However, I’m a PINK girl at heart & have a soft spot for this colour no matter what day it is. It leaves you with the perfect pink lips!
You still get that little tingle on you lips (as you do with the original Carmex) which I personally love. I’d also like to point out that have seen a considerable difference in my lips since I’ve started using these. They are super soft & rarely get dry. Overall, I am SO happy with this product. I hope Carmex bring out different colours in these!
Have you tried Carmex Moisture Plus yet? Will you be picking one of these up?

These remind me of the Burt’s bees tinted lip balms. Love tinted lip balms in the winter. The peach is great.

Can you do a post on what’s in your bag?
That’s coming up very soon
I read this about a month ago and it totally slipped my mind, however I went to the clothes show on friday, and my carmex mad friend bought some, so with the offers I thought I’d get one too, I was recommened the pink tint for my indian complexion. I felt so stupid when I came onto your blog to realise that it was yourself who sold it me! I’m hard to please and I am definately happy chappy from my buy! So thank you for the advice, I haven’t stopped recommending it since!
Oh my gosh!! That’s crazy!! If only we both knew when we saw each other LOL I’m so so glad you’re liking it though It’s amazing stuff isn’t it? I always buy back ups of it
I’m addicted to them x
Hi Kaushal,
How did you get the strong pink in the last picture? Did you use anything else with the Carmex moisture plus sheer pink or did you use it on its own? I only ask because it looks amazing on you and never thought it would be such a nice coloured pink.
Thanks,
Nicky
Hi Nicky, it’s just about two layers of the moisture plus
It’s one of my favourite pinks!
Wow, I ordered some the other day after seeing your pict….I have roughly the same skin tone as you so I was wondering if it would come out on me as much. Most tinted lip balms dont usually show up on my lips as well, regargless of the colour. (bought lots of mac tinted lip balms and all they did was give me a sheer shine!)
Thanks for letting me know hun! x
Aw, no worries! I hope you like it as much as I do x
