I voted other just because I don't use just one thing. I use whatever I find that is cheap

Haha funny stuff. I've never tried it, but you are right, if you didn't link it I may not have belived you :) Looks interesting, I'll have to check it out!

I use either Burts Bees lip balm or currently I have this Palmers Cocoa Butter stuff lip balm that I like pretty good. I usually get my lip balm from the health food store, as I don't like petrolium or artificial perfumes on my lips.

I love my Burt's Bees lip shimmers (nutmeg color). Although I'm trying to figure out if there's SPF in it. I can't find any info on the tube, which worries me because my dad had some pretty major surgery for skin cancer(removed his entire upper lip up to his nose, almost lost his upper palate, had skin grafting and was drinking through a straw for almost 6 weeks... you wouldn't want to see the pics, although you'd never go without sunblock again if you did). He had never used an SPF in anything. Now I want to make sure it's in whatever I put on my face.

If you're brave, click the link to see the kind of surgery he had... He had squamous cell carcinoma.

I have a couple and I **thought** that they had spf 15 in them but if they aren't on the tube I could be wrong. I have cocoa and it is like the perfect color! I love it..
when in doubt I'd email the company you might be surprised!

edit to add:
I've emailed them and will let you know what I find!

Dear Staci:

The lip shimmers do not contain sunscreen, however they do contain
titanium dioxide which reflects the sunlight and can be considered a
natural sunscreen. Thank you for inquiring and have a great day!

Blistex moisturizing is the best lip balm I've ever had. The stuff's so moisturizing, it's like putting water on your lips :D

It is kinda pricey, but I LOVE it.

Smiths Rosebud Salve...

I like the original (tastes and smells like roses), but the strawberry and menthol is ok too.

I also at night just use the vaseline in the jar for a dollar in those travel bins.
