HG! Practically the only lip balm I use, along with Rosebud Salve. It's just simply one of the best (and I can testify to that too, because I probably go through at LEAST five of these a month lol). Very refreshing and cooling on the lips, so it's perfect for me for hot summer days. It just gives that perfect burst when my lips are feeling dehydrated. Doesn't sting my lips at all, and my lips are very sensitive to that sort of thing. It just gives them a slight tingle. I even apply this UNDER any other lip balm that has SPF, when I need it.
The ONLY problem I have with this is that it has a matte finish, so it's not a good base for lipstick. I find that if I apply a glossy, balmy lipstick on top of this, this completely cancels out that shine, and makes any lipstick look dry and 'off.' I like the waxiness of it, although I do wish it was just a bit more moisturizing. Other than that, this is the ONLY lip balm I've found that keeps the chapped, dry, wind burnt lips at bay, and my lips are EXTREMELY picky about what products go on them.

Although I do like some Burt's Bees products (like the cuticle butter) I can't say that I'm a huge fan of this one. The scent was nice and the packaging is pretty standard but I felt the formula was too waxy and that it sat on my lips rather than penetrated them.
This chapstick did not work for me. I have intensely dry lips and this only sat on top of my lips without absorbing and healing them. Basically it did nothing for me. However I will say that it smells delicious.
I love this little lip balm! I especially love the little tin version, mainly because of the cute novelty of it, and also cos it's so small it's easy to slip into a jeans pocket without being bulky (unlike the vaseline tins).
I only like the original honeybee flavour as I find it the most moisturing (both in stick and tin version) without being all gloopy, whereas I've tried their flavoured ones and they just don't match up for some reason.
I do like the menthol feeling it leaves but not sure it's entirely necessary. Sometimes I wish it wasn't so strong and the menthol feeling can last for ages so can get a bit annoying after a while.
This lipbalm, along with Carmex, are my two favourite lip balm brands these days as I've tried so many in the past and nothing else has matched up in quality and effectiveness. They are also both cheap as chips and last for ages.
I tend to use carmex for when my lips are dry and flaky or need healing up, and this burt bees tin for every day softening.
I totally 100% recommend this little lipbalm!
This is a great all-purpose lip balm. It does the job of keeping lips soft and does the job of being as natural as many are not. So it does contain fragrance but I think the scent is yummy and delicious and it is well worth the affordable price.
I had thought this would be a great one because it is after all Burt's Bees. I personally hate it. It's super difficult to apply (transfer to lips) and it's way to minty for me. It stings my lips and has no moisturizing effect whatsoever. Disappointing.

Love this lip balm and always will! I find it smooth and cooling and it makes my lips so soft. I constantly use my lip balm though I am not a fan of their tinted I prefer Simplicity on Etsy it's the best tinted I have ever used.
There balm though is excellent I love anything from bee's because they have so many things that are good for you.
I even take 1 teaspoon of honey a day for health purposes. Back to Burt I love this stuff and always will. It really fixes my lips after doing some nice damage with drying long wear lipsticks and the winter oh how I love thee for Long Island winters! Great product and staple I always have one I think I'm addicted to it because I never run out since I found it years ago:)

Feels great on your lips, the peppermint is very soothing. However, sometimes it leaves little bits or clumps of itself on your lips, not leaving a smooth finish. Overall, I would buy this product again for the feel of it.
I love Burt's Bees products! I just bought two of this kind of lip balm, the mango, and the peppermint. I've tried many different chapsticks and lip balm, but none are as moisturizing as this one! When using this lip balm, my lips feel great and not chapped for hours!
Nice balm! I wanted one for my purse and this was easy to find and not too pricey that I'll be upset if I lose it. It works well, I don't find it too waxy. I'm on the fence about the menthol/minty flavor, which I found unexpected for some reason. Guess I was hoping for a honeybee flavor or something.
