My Experience

I have been hearing about this brand for over a year now and always wanted to try out their products. Since I am a lip balm hoarder, I went forward to give this one a try.

When you will open the tub, the first thing you will notice is its smell. The smell is slightly tangy followed by a medicinal scent which fades away within a few minutes after application.

The consistency of the lip balm is thin and you will need an adequate amount to moisturize your lips. It has a slightly pinkish tint to it when applied on the lips.

The lip balm is quite light-weight and non-sticky. As per its claims of deep conditioning and moisturisation, it only provides average moisturisation which stays on the lips for a maximum of 3 hours. One needs to reapply this frequently.

This lip balm would not be a saviour for people with very dry and extremely chapped lips.

Pros:

•  Sturdy packaging
• Light-weight and Non-Sticky
• Enriched with all natural ingredients

Cons:

• Very thin consistency which makes it messy at times.
• Does not provide moisturisation for a very long period
• Will have to refrigerate during summers.

Would I recommend it:

For normal to dry lips: YES

For very dry and chapped lips: NO
