Advantages: Hypoallergenic

Disadvantages: Just doesn't provide the moisturising you would expect

I had really high expectations of this product, I've used quite a few products from the Boots No7 range and have found them to be really good quality and value for money. Sadly this lip balm completly bucked that trend!

The product is white and heavy on your lips. It is not easily absorbed, it's an absolute must to apply this using a mirror or you end up with white dots all over your lips. As the lip balm is (eventually) absorbed I found that I had littlle dots of loose dry skin all over my lips, which wasn't very pleasant!

The product is supposed to be able to be used under other lip products, but I found that if I tried to apply lipstick or lip gloss it would not apply very well and would wipe off most of the No7 product.

The packaging, in keeping with the rest of the No7 range, is attractive. The product itself, again as with most No7 products is hypoallergenic, so there is no rest of an allergic reaction for those with sensitive skin.

Overall, I was really disappointed by this product, it didn't come anywhere near meeting my expectations based on using other No7 products. However I would not let this experience put me off purchasing other products in the No7 range

Summary: Doesn't live up to the standards of other items in the No7 range
