winter to me tastes like carmex classic medicated lip balm & sunscreen. takes me back to high School when I wore it nonstop. Maybe the lowest years of my life but it’s nice to connect to that me I was before. & this shit literally cures chapped lips in like minutes ill never use anything else. I don’t like flavors either so this one specifically rlly does it for me. its got this kind of grandmotherly, earthy camphor tree scent which i love

My lips get so chapped during the wintertime so this is a must have, even if the temps Only drop a few degrees from normal

When I was a kid there was thisĀ  Rosebud Lip and Hand Salve that seemed really really classy. It was in a vintage looking tin. While that rosebud salve is absolutely divine, some of its mystique has faded into the oblivion of my childhood.Ā However,Ā  Vaseline has now put out a rose flavored vaseline in a mini vaseline box.Ā It smells deeply erotic.Ā  And you have to plunge your finger into this rose flavor goop to apply directly onto your face. Sensuality!Ā Ā The rose fragrance is really well synthesized. It whisks you away to working class glamor like the 20s or something…. If you get it you get it- if you don’t you don’t!!!!!!Some French guy once told me rose scented stuff smells like bathroom cleaner. He couldn’t be more wrong. Fragrance is classically one of the many French/ American divides. The fact is in America, we are overwhelmed with complicated fragrances for cleaning products, candles, and lip balms. Were inundated with Dr Pepper flavors , Coconut passion, Strawberry Attitudes… Vaseline is presupposing and imagining a land far far ago… where choices were specific, simple and deeply erotic.

Today I woke up early before everyone, like usual, & instead of feeling lonely i decided to get my gf & my brother their favorite coffees to wake up to. in their half awake mumbles they were really grateful & it was a nice way to start my day. it felt better than if i were to wake up & go be alone, getting my own thing. If I want to feel love all i have to do is give out my own
