Current full ingredient list: Camphor (1.7%), White Petrolatum (45.3%), Lanolin, Beeswax, Cetyl Esters, Paraffin, Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter, Menthol, Salicylic Acid, Phenol, Vanillin, Flavor
Unsure why the ingredient list here is missing some ingredients, but the list is minimal, non-irritating, non-allergenic (and FA-safe! assuming nothing suspicious is lurking behind "flavors") anyway.
I have been using the original Carmex in a jar since I was a kid. It's the original wintertime lip-protecting balm, and no other comes close! I'm a big fan of the cooling menthol effect. It's definitely memory association but the scent of the camphor and vanillin is so comforting and lovely. I never get breakouts around my lips from this like how I have with balms that include essential oils or stronger fragrances.
