Carmex Pomegranate Lip Balm Review And ~~Giveaway~~


Alfred Woelbing was a buyer at a Chicago department store back in 1937, but he didn’t much like working in the big city. So he began his own business, making silver polish in the basement of his home in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. It paid the bills, for the time being.

Always curious, always inventive, Alfred then decided to create a home remedy for a pesky condition that he’d often suffered: cold sores. After much experimentation over a hot plate, Alfred created Carmex, and then proceeded to sell it to pharmacies by going door to door. If they weren’t interested in purchasing his product, he gave them a dozen jars for free—along with a post card for a re-order. He figured that if he could sell one jar at every drug store in Milwaukee and Chicago, he and his wife could make a decent living.

It wasn’t long before Alfred’s home-based business was booming. Apart from a wartime hiatus in production due to lanolin rationing, Alfred’s company—now known as Carma Labs—grew steadily. For 35 years, Alfred made sales calls in Wisconsin, Illinois and parts of Indiana. He remained president of the company until his death in May, 2001.

Now Carma Labs is managed by Alfred’s grandsons Paul Woelbing (President) and Eric Woelbing (CEO). This new generation of Woelbings has overseen several major innovations, including the introduction of new lip balm flavors; a lip balm line for women, Carmex Moisture Plus™ ultra hydrating lip balm; and a line of Carmex skin care products.

I love Carmex products. Every winter my hands dry out and become extremely painful. So far the only lotion I have found that helps is Carmex Healing Cream.

I was very happy to receive another great batch of products from Carmex. This time I received this beautiful bag and 6 different Lip Balms.

The Lip Balms came in Cherry, Lime, Original, Vanilla, Protecting and their newest Pomegranate.


Normally flavored lip balm has a funny smell to it. Carmex has a nice smell, and it goes on smooth and feels like it is working right off the bat.

With the summer heat, and many beach trips, lip balm is a must. Carmex is a great lip balm that lasts. You don't have to keep applying it every 10 minutes!!


Carmex products are sold at most stores including Target and Walmart!!!

Carmex is extremely generous and offering one of my lucky readers the same bag and lip balms I got!! You'll love it!!
