Posting in AIBU for traffic.

I love Blistex Relief Cream, it’s the only thing that helps me with chapped lips. I can’t find it anywhere. Has anybody else had the same problem? Where can I get it??

I feel like I've seen it in Tesco recently? Is it the pink / purple one?

YellowphantGrey · 16/08/2024 17:43

Think Tesco sell it.

I used it, thought it was amazing and got some from Sainsbury's. Absolutely brilliant again then realised I was using the wrong one and I'd picked up the intensive moisturiser one which is just as good, if not better.

Always look on Amazon! It's there.

marshmallowfinder · 16/08/2024 17:45

Also on Ebay.

Umpteentimesnow · 16/08/2024 17:48

I've noticed this also op, not been and to get it for several weeks.

You got me excited! I’ve been waiting for it to come back on Amazon (and everywhere else) for months.

I think you’re mixing it up with the Intensive Care. The Relief Cream is the metal tube with the red cap.

Also on Ebay.

EBay pricing confirms the worst. It’s been discontinued. It’s £15 a tube. Bugger.

Oh bum! Soz!

Itsjustmyusername · 17/08/2024 08:22

I’ve been able to find it on Amazon and EBay but it’s really expensive!

@YellowphantGrey I like the intensive moisturiser, but much prefer the relief cream.

@mushpush Its in a metal white tube with a red lid.

@Itsjustmyusername I've seen it in home bargains and superdrug?? Would it be available online through boot's or one of the other big chemists??

LadyChilli · 17/08/2024 08:25

They have posted on Instagram in April to say there is a manufacturing interruption. The last time this happened it took ages to get resolved, but did eventually get sorted. So it's not gone forever.

Where has Blistex relief cream gone?
Itsjustmyusername · 17/08/2024 17:38

@LadyChilli thank you! I did wonder if it had been discontinued, good to know it will come back.

Has anyone managed to find Blistex Relief Cream (i.e. the medicated one) anywhere? I can only see it on eBay @ £99.00 (really!). In this current winter weather, my lips are crying out for a new tube of it!

Bobs103 · 19/04/2025 18:10

Found it in my local Tesco for £3.20 and bought three tubes! Thinking of going back for more 😂

ShinySunshine · 19/04/2025 18:11

It’s on sale as normal in my local Boots

You can get Blistex MedPlus in a little blue pot.

Cityandmakeup · 19/04/2025 20:12

I miss that cream so much. Can’t find it anywhere

YourWinter · 19/04/2025 20:15

Tesco have it online, I haven’t looked in store.

GoodLaudanum · 19/04/2025 20:23

I ordered it online from Tesco as part of click and collect shop and it was not included in the shopping. I got refunded.

Is it actually in store then??

It's not the same. I bought that and it doesn't work.
