Firstly, let me say a big thank you to LanaB for introducing us
to this beautiful product. Personally I loved it from the minute
I saw it. The simple glass packaging, the gentle fragrance and the
smooth easy application of the lip balm made for a very pleasant
experience. I am a lipstick/gloss/balm wearer since the age of 12
and have to have something on my lips at all times otherwise I start
licking my lips which makes them chap.
This balm soothed, moisturised and nourished my lips superbly so
much so that I could actually go without anything on my lips for
a couple hours after the balm has worn off. The biggest plus for
me was the lack of taste of the balm on my lips. There is nothing
worse than having a nice lip product that tastes foul on your lips.
Overall this is an excellent product that is well formulated, containing
good, nourishing ingredients that do exactly what they are supposed
to do. I can highly recommend this product for anyone..

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.
But, I managed to apply it quite well - and a little goes
a long way, and for that reason I can see this balm lasting
quite a while. My lips felt moisturised immediately. My
lips didn't feel sticky at all. They had just had the
right amount of balm to moisturise my dry lips. I also
used this product every night before I went to bed after
my cleansing routine, and found my dry lips improved within
a week. It's a shame you cannot buy it in stores, making
it a bit more accessible. I give it 3 stars - took off
2 due to not being able to purchase in stores.
