The holidays are a perfect time to stock pile Carmex® lip balm. They make great gifts and keep lips moisturized and protected during the dry winter months. While we came up with a gazillion reasons to stock up on Carmex lip balm, we offer 10 for the holidays.

- Thanksgiving Dinner. Lips treated with Carmex lip balm stay soft and pliable making it easier to open wide and stuff more Thanksgiving dinner in your mouth.


- Fill Stockings. Carmex lip balm makes great stocking stuffers – there are 10 kinds of Carmex for everyone on your list.


- Dessert alternative. A little dab of Carmex on the lips can mean less heft on the hips. Heck, it’s almost as satisfying as a big slice of pie but without the calories! And with nummy flavors like strawberry, cherry and mint, who needs pie?
- Santa and the reindeer. Put Carmex on the plate instead of cookies to keep their lips moisturized and protected from the elements as they fly across the sky. Plus, look at Santa’s belly and tell me he really needs the cookies.


- Secret Santa gifts. Carmex is the perfect gift for Secret Santa exchanges and because it is such a bargain you can afford to give more than one!
- Tis the season to kiss and be kissed. Don’t get caught under the mistletoe without Carmex. Whether a mistletoe or Happy New Year kiss is in order, Carmex makes lips more kissable because it moisturizes as it protects lips from chapping.


- Advent calendar. Buy 25 sticks, tubes or jars of Carmex and make your own Carmex Advent Calendar. What better way to ensure that your lips stay festive every day?
- Cough and cold season. Carmex prevents chapping when you have a cold or cough and the tingle makes everything seem better.


- Tingle with the jingle. Every Carmex lip balm provides a tingle to tell you it is working. And if you use Carmex every day, you’ll keep dry lips away. To remind yourself, every time you hear the jingle of a bell, apply the tingle of Carmex.


- Thank you gifts. For your hairdresser, teachers, doorman, nail technician, grocery bagger, party hostesses, your neighbors, boss, mailperson, and lawyer, everyone deserves and appreciates the gift of Carmex.

Use Carmex every day to keep dry lips away. Carmex, available in ten different varieties, provides moisturizing benefits to soothe and protect lips from chapping while it softens and heals. Carmex is available at most major retailers. For more information visit www.mycarmex.com : .
