My first impression of this little guy was completely different than I imagined! I think all of us beauty lovers research products like crazy once we see something we like and I did just that with this. However, when I opened up this adorable yet hilarious box for the first time I couldn't believe how EXTREMELY thick the balm was! The product itself was so hard to squeeze out of the tube I initially thought that I got a defective batch haha. Once some finally came out I realized that that was the actual texture and I moved on with my life. As for the consistency it is identical to that of regular Vaseline and it really feels the same as that going on, it's just a bit more thick.
I have been using this on my lips for the past few days and I really like it. You just need a tiny bit and after getting used to the consistency I don't have much of a problem getting it out of the tube. I do think it's made my lips softer over the time I've been using it and it beats the staying power of a typical lip balm due to its thickness.
It feels a little bit heavy on the lips but I love that in a lip balm product because it makes me feel like it's actually doing something! It also has sort of a tacky texture which normally would bother me but it is so slight I actually prefer it because it prolongs the wear! It lacks any type of scent as far as I can tell and they do say that it is 100% natural which is pretty cool! I LOVE the idea of products you can use in multiple places and you better believe I will be keeping this multi tasking product in my purse because it is the perfect size. Since receiving it I have only used this on my lips but I can't wait to try it on my cuticles and feet next!
I hope you enjoyed my little review of this do it all product!
Good luck and I can't wait to see who wins!
Love, Lacey
That looks like a very thick balm! I love the rose salve from C.O. Bigelow!
ReplyDeleteIt is and I've never heard of that one! I'll have to look into it. :)
DeleteThe Shea Butter Lip Balm from L'Occitane is my favorite, but I like trying out new ones.
ReplyDeleteOh wow that sounds lovely! I really like the L'Occitane hand lotion so I'd probably love the lip balm! :)
DeleteMMM sounds so nice! I bet it is great on cuticles, too!!

DeleteI don't really have a favorite lip product. I've been wanting to try out some! I never used to put anything on my lips. I know you're the best person to ask about lip stuff lol
ReplyDeleteAre you serious?! I couldn't even imagine- there are so many wonderful products out there! Just ask if you want any recommendations but I would totally start with a Korres Lip Butter! :D
DeleteMy favourite product is Burts Bees - lovely stuff! x

DeleteThese days my favorite lip treatment has been Fresh SUGAR lip treatment. But I do switch off and use ones by Nivea.
