This is THE BEST chapstick. Very addictive. My DH is a chapstick freak, and has tried them all and has a ton of them, and this is by far his favorite. It is the very best, works great!
I love this balm! I have this in the stick type and it's easy to use. I don't like the type in a little container that you have to put your finger in the product to scrape. This balm works very well like it says. The only complaint I have is that the minty scent transfers to my lipstick/lipgloss applicator, if I use it before applying the lipstick/gloss. But it's not a big problem, so I will definitely repurchase this.
This was on sale for $3.49 CAD at SDM last week, so I figured it's an inexpensive way to try out such a cult favourite. I'm not disappointed, but I do understand how some people wouldn't like it.
The balm comes in a really cute yellow metal tin that you can carry with you anywhere; so the packaging is adorable. The balm itself is really really smooth when you touch it, but when applied, it feels very waxy and it takes several sloshes around the tin to get good coverage on your lips. It smells strongly of mint, and tingles heavily on the lips for at least a couple of minutes.
Burt's Bees does do the job fairly well, but I wish it would apply easier and not be so waxy. Either way, I think it's a relatively cheap balm that is very good quality for the price. Probably will repurchase. continued >>
This is a very strange lip balm because it gives your lips a cool chill which I dont really like. My daughter uses it and loves that cool feel so I guess this is a love it or hate it product.
Fabulous stuff! I LOVE the honey-peppermint flavor and that beeswax blend does a great job at keeping my winter lizard-lips at bay!Petroleum based balms just made the chapping worse the more I used them, but when I switched to beeswax, things improved very quickly, the cracks healed up within a day and my lips rapidly got very soft and smooth. I carry a tube in my purse at all times now.
The best out there!! I've been using this for years and every time I try something new I regret it! It's the only thing that conditions my lips in the winter after just one application, and in the summer it plumps them slightly when it's softer due to the heat (I think because of the menthol in there). The smell is fresh, and it tingles when you put it on. I'm very glad I found this!
It doesn't dry out my lips as some people commented below, but the minty taste is just too strong for my liking. It actually burns my lips. I think it's over-priced, too.
Many people said good things about this so I decided to try it. It did nothing for me, other than leaving some white stuff on my lips and making them even drier. I also hate that waxy feeling. Won't be buying ever again!
Strangely, I actually prefer the lip balm in the pot as opposed to the tube. Either way, the whole Burt's Bees line is wonderful, and the lip balms are no exception. Nothing fancy, but it feels (and tastes) so fresh and clean!
