I rarely use lip balm. I got 6 tubes for Christmas, opened them all and put them around the house, in the car, in my bag, at my desk... I am trying to make an effort to use them.
It made me wonder, though, have any of you used up an entire a tube of chapstick?
I don't think I ever have. They usually get lost, dusty, or thrown away.
Yes, fairly regularly. The one I keep at work goes the fastest, followed by my car, and then my purse. The ones around the house last the longest because I have multiples of them (and are the most likely to get disappeared by a cat).
I'm with you...I never keep up with them long enough to use them. My H, though, keeps his favorite by the bed and uses it faithfully every night. He almost cried when he ran out.
I use lip balm constantly so yes, I actually go through it. I don't use Chapstick so I've never used one up, but I've used up many pots/jars/tubes of other brands.
Yes, often. It took me 10 months or so to go through the various tubes of Burt's Bees that I brought to France with me. I restocked when I was in the U.S. in November.
I'm a complete lip balm addict. I have at least 4 in the house, 1 in the car and 1 at work. I lose some, but I use them so often I go through them like crazy.
I have at least 6 tubes scattered about - home, car, work, etc.
When my grandmother passed away (go with me here, it's relevant) we were cleaning out her apartment and found 52 tubes of chapstick! About 10 were open and used, the rest were just stashed places. It was hilarious.
Uh, add me to the list of the Chapstick addicts. I've often said that the best Christmas present is a years supply of Chapstick. I reapply probably 3-4 times an hour.

Me too. When I'm just sitting around relaxing, I'm holding a tube of chapstick (the blue kind!). I'm obsessive about it. H keeps packs of them throughout the house and car for me in case of an emergency.
I always finish them. I use it constantly. I have one in my purse, on my nightstand, on my side table next to the couch, and in my desk at work. I always wait to buy more until one of them starts to get low.
Nope. I have them everywhere - in my purse, school bag, makeup organizer, and I always use my boyfriend's in the bathroom. Before I can get through an entire tube I usually get weirded out about bacteria and toss + buy a new one. I think I bought 3 last year so it's not like I'm buying all the time.
I always have a tube of cherry Chapstick in my right pants pocket. On the rare day that I'm wearing pants without pockets I have Chapstick in my purse. I've also become a big fan of EOS, but I can't put that container in my pocket. I leave one in the kitchen junk drawer.
When I was younger my grandma thought there was something wrong with me because I was so "addicted" to Chapstick.
I'm addicted to the way my lips feel with balm/gloss on, so I use up several tubes a year. Plus there are the ones that the dog sometimes gets ahold of and eats (Nivea milk and honey lip balm).
