Lakoko Review

When I received this in the best of summer BBBE I put it on my shelf thinking it would be great for my feet and hands before bed but then I found a much more magical use for it and I am so grateful for this balm!

The small 30ml glass jar is cute and sturdy with a screw top lid. It's not over the top fancy but it's practical.

The balm itself is not overly thick or hard so it's easy to scoop a piece out and it melts so quickly on your skin, the best consistency I have found in a balm so far. It has a gorgeous slight lavender scent with just a hint of coconut.

Now this is where I found it a miracle- about a year ago I got an under boob tattoo that goes across both ribs right down to my belly button (hey it seemed like a good idea at the time) anyway recently it has become raised and super itchy and nothing would soothe it no moisturiser, cream or oil then I looked at this balm and thought it wouldn't hurt to try and instantly the itching stopped once a massaged a small amount in. It felt bliss. It doesn't leave your skin feeling really greasy either and leaves it just delicately scented. After using it for a week the tattoo is nowhere near as raised or itchy. I've been using it morning and night and will continue until it's back to normal. I will have to purchase another jar before I run out as I don't think I could be without it. I have also used it on my hands and they are left feeling super soft. I only use it at night on my hands as I don't like any residues on my hands during the day.

Highly recommend this balm if you have really itchy and dry skin it's so nourishing and soothing.

I'm generally not all that into multi-purpose balms, but this is one that you've just got to love!

This is quite a light balm, it's soft and not waxy at all. The fragrance is very aromatic, it smells quite fruity in a natural kind of way.

Primarily, I use this as a lip balm. I tend to have issues with crusty lips, which i've not experienced since applying this balm to my lips at least once a day. It also provides your lips with a healthy looking slight sheen/glow, and makes them feel super hydrated and soft.

I've also used this balm on my wee boy, for bruises, sun burn, dry skin and mosquito bites, all for whitch it seems to soothe.

This is such a lovely to use and effective multi-purpose balm, unfortunately though I feel that you don't get a lot of it for the price. However I like it so much that i'd probably repurchase.

While everyone seems to describe the scent differently to what I can smell to me this balm smells and feels like vaseline it had me a little stumped at first thinking what can this do that vaseline doesn't ? Well it surely showed me up I'm only using it on my face as a night balm once applying it I notice that it does melt & a little goes a long way for me it seems to liquify like an oil. It takes its time to absorb just like an oil aswell. However upon rising in the morning I notice my skin is supple & hydrated. There has been no break outs since it's an oil balm imo & can only say good things for what's it's done to my skin as a night time skincare routine. Since I've only been using it as a skincare treatment Id probably repurchase. I wouldn't have known about the product without BR & only reached for it as I ran out of my face oil. Its been a win win.

I got this cute balm in the Best of Summer BBBE.

It comes in a really cute screw top pot. When you open the lid, the first scent of lavender hits you in the nose! I like lavender so that is fine by me.

The balm itself is very balmy - thick, white and when applied to the skin it melts on contact and absorbs into my dry skin quickly and smoothly, leaving a slightly greasy, shiny feel behind it.

Initially I wondered what I was going to use it for, but after having it sitting around for quite a while, I decided to give it a try on my very rough dry feet. I do a lot of walking so my feet get a bit of a hard time. I have patches of very dry skin on my heels and on the balls of my feet. I started applying the product each night to my clean feet and I'm very pleased with the result. The skin is softer, (almost completely cured) much more smooth, and the dry patches are no longer dry. And that isn't the only benefit, it leaves my feet feeling caressed and scented and contributes to a lovely feeling of relaxation when I get into bed.

While coming to do my review, I read the blurb above which prompted me to try some on my lips. Yum! you'd think the lavender scent would be too strong for lips but it isn't.

Overall this is a lovely product, and I don't think $25 for the 30ml pot is too much, as in reality it probably will last a while, though I'm well aware of my own tendency to use too much of any product at each application!

Most definitely a product to try and keep on hand.

I had never seen this product before until I got it in my BBBE. I loved the smell of it straight away.i always get dry lips so I used it on my lips it felt so nice giving my lips a shine. I would buy this again it's a must have in my handbag.

I received this product in the Summer Time box and fell in love. It is so hydrating and nourishing, and the light scent is gorg! It's a great size, so I can chuck it in my purse to hydrate my lips or hands when I'm out. I usually use it at night, after giving myself a wee facial massage with it. I have also used it on areas of eczema and it soothes any red and irritated spots. It's quite expensive so I would have to weigh up whether to get this or another product, however it's lasted for ages!

I Love Lakoko Balm and use it in my beauty therapy business facials and massage sessions. As well as using it at home. Its fantastic on the skin as an all over nourishing balm as well as the face - but also I have used it as a hair mask! It doesn't leave the skin "oily" or greasy and the fragrance is Summer and the tropics in a jar! totally recommend

This is a great miracle balm. I literally use it for everything! Works for nappy rash, eczema, dry spots, sunburn etc.. Rich balm, and you only need a little bit at a time. This is something that i believe everyone needs in the house as it’s so versatile.
