I got 2 off IHerb and actually didn't have high expectations but wow, these are incredible! I have mine in coffee and black cherry. I love the coffee one, since I am a coffee addict anyway.
They smell amazing and are so great to apply and the great thing (in my opinion) is that the smell doesn't make it taste like anything because I don't like smelling the scent of my lip balm throughout the wear of it. It's slick enough so that it really doesn't drag and is as smooth as butter. I have to admit that initially, I had never tried such slick balms before and didn't like it. However, after having used them for 2 months now they are incredible and really do moisturize nicely. I apply it at night and wake up with smooth, velvety lips. It's also great to reapply throughout the day but I find myself reaching for the dark cherry one more since it does have a lovely tint (and also smells delicious)!
The packaging is simple but effective. I initially thought the oval shaped tube was weird but such a shape makes for an easy application - especially for the tint since you don't want it smearing everywhere. I also like that the screw is quite right so you don't accidentally twist it and smush the product. The price too is super affordable and I love how they are cruelty free, plus they also have a whole lot of flavones so you're bound to find one you like. Love love love - just need to get more flavours now!
This product I have had just over a week and I am addicted! I didn't have very high hopes for this product I thought it was way over hyped but it has knocked Paw Paw ointment out of the way and has become my new holy grail lip care product!
I got mine in the Moon Balm which is blue chamomile and vanilla and it smells amazing. I mainly bought it because this was the flavour one of the girls at work had and I fell in love, then it just so happened my nail lady got them in to her salon so I had to give them a whirl! The smell isn't overly powerful either when its on the lips. They aren't overly expensive(I think mine was $7.50) but its fine as I was able to buy locally and not have to pay for shipping which was a bonus.
The tube itself is a good almond/oval type shape which I find is better suited to the shape of the lips than the circle ones. It glides on easy and is not sticky or greasy or anything. It also stays on the lips for awhile and provides the most amazing moisturising for dry lips. You can literally feel how moisturised your lips are, especially after wearing it overnight. I will definitely be buying again!
