Advantages: Natural, nice taste, moisturises well
Disadvantages: Price, tin can be tricky
I bought this lip balm in Boots because it was reduced to £1.22 in Boots and if you're lucky enough to find one for that price it is definitely worth buying.
It's an all natural, organic lip balm promising 'super-soft lips, healthy and vibrant'. And it is just as good as it sounds.
The lemon myrtle flavour is subtle and sweet and it leaves your lips feeling lovely and soft. It also comes in a vanilla flavour which I haven't tried. The texture is slightly grainy - they recommend warming it in the palm of your hand until it is smooth but I find if you just put it straight on the lips the graininess soon goes. This just seems to be because it is made from such lovely natural ingredients.....
Shea butter
Sunflower seed oil
Cera alba
Evening primrose oil
Olive oil
Jojoba seed oil
Calendula flower extract
The packaging is cute - it comes in a small cardboard box containing advice on how to use it (if you really need it) and telling you that it's 100% organic and dermatologically tested. The tin inside is small and silver with a screw top. This screw top can cause problems if you're not careful - Mine got well and truly jammed a few days ago and I couldn't get it open until the next day. Inconvenient but I think I screwed it on too tightly and because it was warm the metal must have expanded...I just had to wait until it was colder and have made sure to be more careful since then. So if you do buy some don't screw the lid on too well!
The rrp seems to be around £5 which is a lot for a pretty tiny 7ml tin - I'm not convinced that it is worth this even if it is organic and natural and cute. It is lovely lip balm with a natural feel and flavour and it moisturises beautifully so I would really recommend it but not for that price.
Summary: It's gorgeous but too expensive
