Which do you guys prefer? I know the pot is tiny so a pain to get fingers into, but is the stick as effective as the balm? Tia Very Happy

I prefer the stick to the balm, although I do have both. The balm seems to have more slip to it. I use it under my lip liner. The stick seems to stay on longer, I use it everynight when I go to bed and it is still there when I get up in the morning. When I have used the balm, it does seem like I have to reapply more often and it doesn't last through the night.

It’s my understanding that they both have the same formulation, although the stick has wax added to it as that is what allows the stick to hold its form...I think it’s entirely a matter of preference which one you like better – some people hate ‘waxy’ lip balms so they prefer the stuff in the pot, but others like the fact that waxy balms stick to your lips better.

There now, wasn’t I a lot of help!? Wink Razz

I have both and I am now finding that I turn to the stick more often (it's about to run out actually) but that's because it's more convenient to use. I used to think one was better than the other but I think they're pretty much the same.

At first I preferred the balm for it's texture, but it became so annoying to deal with the pot -- plus it was a magnet for pet fur and fuzz. I've switched to the lip care stick and now I'm hooked! It's so much easier.
