I
was very impressed by this product. It has attractive,
yet simple packaging, and has a fantastic raspberry smell.
I thought the little pot it comes in was handy to take
anywhere without any mess. It applied really well. It
is easy to apply with a little bit going a long way, and
has a great lasting ability. As soon as I started using
it my lips started feeling much softer, and felt nicer
each time I applied it. The texture was very smooth making
the lip balm easy to apply. I would definitely purchase
this product in the future, its great and the jar will
last a long time as it hold quite a sufficient amount.
I would give this lip balm 5 out of 5, I loved using it.
Although
I'm a big user of lip balm, I haven't tried many organic
lip products in the past, so I was looking forward to
applying something natural on my lips! The lip balm comes
in a glass pot and is white in colour, but goes on clear.
I found that the application of the lip balm worked best
when I rubbed my finger in the pot to warm up the balm
so I could get a decent sized application on my lips.
The texture was smooth and balm-like, rather than having
an overly greasy or slippery feel. This felt like my lips
were being conditioned. I loved the smell of the lip balm,
mainly since I am a fan of anything raspberry-flavoured,
but also because it wasn't too over-powering or artificially-smelling.
I will definitely buy this again; my lips felt moisturised,
I loved the scent and using an organic product is a big
plus!

Cute
small glass jar with screw cap which easily fits into
the smallest of purses. Application was easy; I only need
the tiniest amount. My lips were more hydrated and less
chapped from using it during the day, so I tried applying
it before bed time nightly as well and found that it kept
my lips soothed and moisturized in my sleep too! The texture
looked slightly dry when I first opened the jar, but the
heat from my finger melted the balm without any problems.
I received the Raspberry flavour and it only has a hint
of the fragrance (which smells like real raspberries,
not the overpowering or sickly artificial smell). 
I
thought the product has a minimalist look to it, which
appeals to me. It comes in a heavy small glass jar with
black plastic top. It definitely feels solid to hold and
the ribbon included with product description was a cute
personal touch. Given that this product comes in a tub,
you'd have to use your finger to apply. Some might find
this unhygienic/messy, but I don't have a problem with
it. It moisturised and protected my lips well. The product
was quite waxy in texture and hard for a lip balm, which
I find quite surprising given the amount of oils included
in it. So much so that I had to use my nails sometimes
to scrape the product out and apply it to my lips. However,
this balm might soften in warmer weather, making application
easier. The fragrance/flavour I received was watermelon.
To be honest, it smelt a bit artificial, but not that
strong that it becomes offensive. I would give it 4 stars.
The
packaging is pretty simple, but that didn't bother me.
It's what is inside the packaging that counts. Delicious
smell. When I first opened it I loved the smell - yummy
watermelon. Colour of the balm is an inoffensive white,
and the jar is small enough for my handbag. I also love
that it is has no petrochemicals or mineral oils as an
ingredient. At first I found it a little difficult to
rub the balm onto the pad of my index finger because it
was quite hard and needed to be a bit softer. Also, my
nail was a bit long and the balm ended up under my fingernail.
