I was
introduced to this product through a friend, who said it was amazing for very
dry cracked lips (not sure if she was hinting something to me). When I first
tried this product I wasn’t too sure about it for many reasons, firstly not too
sure about the whole nipple thing, it doesn’t have a scent to it and the
texture of the balm feels very thick and almost sticky. When you first put it
on because it’s so thick and sticky it kind of feels a little heavy on the
lips. However I would still definitely recommend this to people who have severely
cracked lips as it really repairs the damage.
But, as an everyday lip balm, not so good.

I was given
this product as a gift and since that day it's been one of my staples. I am prone
to dry lips unfortunately, and find it hard to find a lip balm that hydrates my
crusty lips without weighing it down. However I swear by this product as it
glides on the lips beautifully without the sticky sensation. This lip balm has
a very subtle but moreish scent with a hint of lavender. Depending on the temperature
determines the thickness of the balm, for instance in cold weather conditions
the balm comes out quite thick but as soon as it hits your lips it instantly
melts and forms a subtle gloss. I would definitely recommend this product as an
everyday lip balm and it also repair cracked lips so for me this is the winning
product.
