【Burt's Bees Lip Balm: Don't Leave Home Without It】
It seems that Im always on a never ending quest for the perfect lip balm, lip stick or treatment that will not cause my lips to dry up and become a flaky mess!!
Right before Christmas I was shopping at Bath and Body Works and was getting ready to check out when a little basket of yellow lip balms caught my roving eye.
It was a basket full of Burt's Bees beeswax lip balm.
I was really excited and grabbed one right away.
When I got to the car, husband in tow, I couldn't wait to get out the Burt's and give it a try.
My lover thought I was nuts rummaging around in the trunk like a fiend.
But my lips were in pain and needed some quick relief!!
At last I located the balm and we got in the car and proceeded to be on our merry way.
When I opened the little yellow tube, the first thing I noticed was the smell.
Whooooeeee!!! The whole car filled up with the smell of peppermint and something else I haven't quite put my finger on yet.
My lover even made some comments about the smell (not too favorable) but I did not let that stop me as I eagerly applied the stuff to my parched lips.
Aaaaahhhhhh....my lips let out a big sigh of relief.
Immediately they were calmed down and soothed. Burt's Bees Lip Balm felt absolutely wonderful on my lips!!
When applied, it goes on smoothly and a bit thicker than other lip balms and I noticed I don't have to apply it as often.
But the big test was yet to come, would my lips heal or get drier still.
Im happy to report that they healed and are doing much better.
This lip balm in my opinion is one of the best that I have ever used.
I highly recommend it, unless you just can't get past the strong smell.
But it really does work! It has saved my dried out winter lips from becoming a cracked and bleeding mess.
Ingredients (from the tube):
Overall, Im very happy with this lip balm and I recommend it highly if you have sore chapped lips.★★★★★
