Advantages: Smells lovely, it relieves dry and chapped lips, it leaves a glossy but not sticky feel
Disadvantages: None
I purchased this about 2 years ago and I had a clear out of my cosmetics drawer a couple of weeks ago and found it. I have started using it because I am always desperate for lip balm in the winter. I get very dry and chapped lips very easily.

Where to Buy and Price
--------------------------
This can be bought for £2.00 in the Body Shop or online at thebodyshop.co.uk. It comes in several different flavours or shall I say smells (warning: it may smell yummy but it must not be eaten!). The flavours include: strawberry, Satsuma, watermelon, pink guava, mango and peach, raspberry and passionberry, so there is a nice choice to choose from.
------------
Packaging
------------
The product packaging is very basic but for £2.00 that is what you would expect. It is a see through screw on circular lid pot with the Body Shop sticker on the top. The gorgeous Strawberry gooey lip balm can be seen through it.

What it smells like
---------------------
Usually I hate the smell of anything that seems fake - but despite this lip balm having a very strong overly strawberry smell which you would never smell so strongly from a punnet of strawberries... I do not mind... actually the smell is divine! The smell makes me want to keep opening the lid and applying more of it! Perhaps this was the Body Shop's selling tactic to make me use it stupidly quick. However, I have had it for two years so it is about time I use it up!
-------------
How it feels
-------------
It feels quite gooey now I am nearer the bottom of the pot however, when I first started using it, it was quite a firm lip balm that I had to press down quite hard on to get lots of the balm on my finger to put on my lips. It has a lovely moisturising feel to it which is not sticky. I reapply it about twice a day when I feel I need to. It is very long lasting, I would say on average it wears off after about three hours.
--------
Overall
--------
Well I am starting to run out of it so I will definitely be looking to repurchase this product and I will make sure it does not get lost in my cosmetics drawer, it will constantly be in my handbag!
