Lush Ultrabalm

This stuff is amazing. I liken it to lush's verison of pawpaw cream. I love the fact in comes in a tin ( very hardwearing) has sooo many uses- dry,cracked skin to nappy rash to bug bites. Despite the heat abnd humidity of auckland, ive found that it's never melted , which can often happen with similar products. doesnt leave any greasy residue either

I haven't used this for much else other than when i have a new tattoo, and it works wonders! It's provides a good barrier for which your tattoo can heal and still stay moisturised, which is key. Mine always heal up super fast and cleanly in about 4-5 days with the ultrabalm. It's cheap too! And all natural - which i love.

The only thing that irks me is the gritty texture, which can be troublesome with a healing tattoo, so be careful not too apply to harshly.

I love all the products from lush but this is a stand out, I use it for my lips and it leaves them supersoft, I use this after i use my bubblegum lip scrub. I think this is a really good price as the packaging is quite big for a lip balm

This is a really nice lipbalm and spot moisuriser. I love keeping it in my bag and just popping it on any areas that need some more hydration. I love that it's a generous size and you only need a tiny bit as it's so hydrating. I can't describe the smell really as it's so unoffensive and light. It's really nice!

I purchased this as an animal testing free alternative to paw paw ointment, which is known to be the healer of all things. At the store, the lady told me that this too, was known as the healer of all things. However I realised upon using this, and dealing labels etc. that this is not the case, and it's really just a moisturising like balm.

The first thing I noticed, was that it is much bigger than I expected. Lush usually has really expensive products with little content, but this one was different.

It comes in a nice sturdy screw top aluminium tin, filled with the potion. The smell is really nice, one of my favourite smells from lush products, it reminds me of a middle eastern dessert, although I can't put my finger on which one! It also smells like those kewpie plastic dolls I had when I was little. I loved the sweet smelling plastic they were made from and the scent of this sort of reminds me of that as well. Either way it is delicious.!

It's a soft consistency, that melts almost instantly with the touch of you fingers, and spreads really easily as well. I do find that while you do spread it, it does leave a bit of residue on the fingers.

It does a really good job of softening the skin, although you don't get the result right away. When I put it on, it just feels like an oily film on my skin, however 24 hours later, I am amazed by how soft my skin is! It really is amazing.

While it's not necessarily like the pawpaw ointment, in terms of helping heal/remove scars, I found that this kind of did that. I've had the same scar on my thigh from when i accidently cut myself 6 months or so ago. After one application of this, the redness is significantly reduced!

This product is truly an everything balm. You have cracked lips? This will help. You are chaffing? This will help. When I first got it I thought that it would be very limited to what you can use it for. But because there are so few ingredients in it it realy does help it to be used for everything. It comes in a nice big pot as well so really easy to use.

While this is a multi purpose balm, I mainly use it on my lips. I tend to stay away from lip balm that contains petroleum and this is a great option! It's easy to apply and highly moisturising. It's great value too! A 45g pot is just under $10. However, I do prefer lip balm that comes in a tube (for hygiene reasons).

This is great! I do have a few niggles I didn't like but overall this is a good product. First off, what I did like was that you get a lot in the pot and it lasts forever especially if you are using it as a lip balm. It worked great as a skin protector when dyeing my hair with henna and it's great for the ends of my hair. I didn't like the smell, initially I liked it but after a while it was quite off putting, maybe it has expired because I took so long to use it but I'm not sure. It didn't help with my eczema but very few things do. I actually ended up re-mixing this as I wanted it a bit more sticky and balmy than hard and I've had much better results, it's great as a deep moisturising foot mask.
