Not gonna lie, I originally bought this because of the happy yellow tube and the very quite bee picture on the front. They recently changed the packaging so there is no bee =( Anyway, I enjoyed this product and used it all the way up. It is a yellow color so don't slather it on, but it smells nice, a very floral honey, and it's decently moisturizing. I use it mainly during the daytime.

This is the first lip product that actually was moisturizing! I didn't have very chapped lips but my lips weren't very smooth. After a couple days of using this, I saw improvement! When you apply the product, it goes on smoothly and leaves your lips feeling very moisturized. I definitely recommend this product. I need to try the other kinds too, i'm almost out of the Milk and Honey and it hasn't even been a month!

I bought this over a year ago, and even though I use this a lot, I still am using the same tube. It really helps make my lips very soft, even if they're extremely chapped when I first put this on. I can apply and not put more on for several hours.

This lip balm contains beeswax, so it just sits on my lips and acts like a barrier but doesn't actually moisturize my lips. I bought this mainly because of the name "A kiss of Milk and Honey" it sounded sweet and the little bee on the packaging sucked me in. I thought this was going to moisturizing but it is just beeswax and the smell I just can't stand. It smells nothing like how good the name sounds. Probably the worse Nivea lip balm I tired from them and I tired a lot.

My lips get dry very easily and require deep moisture. This stuff was like wax just sitting on top of my lips and not soaking in and hydrating. Plus, it smells icky!

I bought this because it was basically two for the price of one. I think it was a special! In my opinion, this lip balm does a decent job of moisturizing your lips (but then again my lips don't get super super chappy). The packaging kind of reminded me of a gluestick, but my real bone to pick with this balm was the smell. I expected it to smell like milk and honey, but instead it smelled like some kind of flower (honeysuckle maybe). While it wasn't a bad smell, I didn't like it much and as a result don't the lip balm much. Wouldn't purchase again.

I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!!!
I hape dry lips all the time. Idk what to do with it.
I use Burt's bee, EOS and Carmex sometimes. Nivea is the one that hydrates the most...100% satisfied. Love the taste too!!!

I love products with milk and/or honey extracts as they are usually very moisturizing. This product is so-so on moisturizing but application is smooth and gives my lips a healthy sheen, I really don't care for the smell or taste though.

when i first bought this and tried it, it felt waxy and not moisturizing at all. but after using it a handful of times, the initial "hard" layer came off and it started performing the way i expected it to. while i don't know how moisturizing it really is, it does keep my lips from drying out. i only use this at night before bed since it doesn't contain SPF and feels a little thick on the lips. there is a floral fragrance (i don't detect any milk or honey scent) which i dont' love but eventually got used to. so far i've used about 25% of this.. and just recently started noticing that as i press the balm on my lips to apply, it starts twisting down on its own. it's easily remedied by putting a finger on the bottom of the tube as i apply and not a big deal. i like this enough to keep using, but not enough to say i'd run out and repurchase when i run out.

Score! This is an Overall Rating of a **Million**. I finally found the ONE lippie that (alone or under/over color) that DOES NOT make my lips peel, crack, bleed! - It soothed my broken skin, healed them instantly (seriously, overnight success) and I'm floored it is less than $30. I've paid much for Kiehl's, Aquaphor, Badger, Korres, Laura Mercier, Tarte, Fresh, you name it - And Nivea crossed the finish line first. I love the texture, it's creamy not cakey, and it melts into your lips and the creamy texture does not evaporate like others. It melts and sinks in your lips to make them soft, and it helps to naturally exfoliate your lips. Heaven in a tube and I can find it ANYWHERE. I also love the packaging, it is very European sleek design. The scent is subtle, it reminds me of Swiss Alps in the springtime. :)

I have been using this product for some months. It smells very nice, like honey! It moisturizing when I put it on the lips but it doesn't last long and my lips are still dry when I wash my face in the evening. It is OK but not perfect.

I go through a lot of different lip care products because I have dry lips. This is one of the best I've had. It's creamy to put on, and moisturizing. And I like the smell, even though I hate milk (it was more of a honey smell than milk, really).

Even though this lip balm is my go to, it does not do much to moisturize my lips. It does, however, have very convenient packaging, a lovely smell and goes on smoothly and evenly. Not holy grail worthy, basic lip balm.

i was so looking forward to trying this. i love the scent of honey and i quite like nivea lip balms in general. but this was disappointing. it doesn't smell like honey to me, and it doesn't seem to moisturize that well. however, YMMV

This lip balm is quite creamy and it smells nice but it doesn't last long on the lips at all. Perhaps it still moisturizes them but an hour after application I can't feel the product on my lips at all. The scent doesn't really remind me of milky or honey, perhaps an artificial, synthetic version of it. Considering Nivea balms always smell nice the scent of this isn't anything special and even if I repurchased it wouldn't be in this flavor/scent. Not bad but I enjoy my Blistex, Carmex and Hurraw lip balms a lot more.

I bought this after hearing reviews of it saying that it smells and tastes (yeah, it was mentioned a couple if times. Don't ask me why they know) amazing. So, out of curiosity, I bought this thinking that it would. It doesn't. I don't like the scent at all. To me it reminds me not of milk and honey but my grandmother's old rose perfume, which I would't want to put anywhere near my lips. The good thing though, this moisturizes pretty well. It goes on light and hardly undetectable on my lips and not greasy. It stays on and absorbs into lips pretty well leaving it supple and smooth. Will probably get this in the normal flavor next time considering I can't stand the horrible scent.

I got this in a two pack. I use this every morning after I moisturize my face. I don't have a problem with chapped lips, so it must be working. I've had the tube for a while now, so it lasts long. It's pretty cheap. No complaints. I have tried Fresh lip balm and this works as well at a fraction of the price.

Okay, so I had heard great things about the Nivea lip balms...and I love their creams and lotions so I figured I would give it a shot (I have been using their products happily for years). I wanted the mint, but they didn't have it at my store so I opted for the next best thing...since it wasn't fruity and sounded extra moisturizing.

I was a little shocked by the color when I first popped it open. Its like a bright, weird, yellowish gold color. I was expecting more a creamy color. Then I sniffed it, expecting a warm scent, and was let down. I put it on anyway, and it was fine, nothing awful. I just expected more. I usually use EOS lip balms, and I don't feel like this individual Nivea balm can compare. It didn't do much to soften my lips, and I even had some dead skin on my lips for the couple days I tried to give this balm a shot. I never have that problem with my EOS balms.


I put that I would buy it again, because I plan on buying another scent and trying again. I really wanted to love this balm, but I think it missed the mark.
