Here is another great, natural product from Burt's Bees. And you know what's funny? I have no idea how I got it:) Did I get it from someone as a gift or I purchased it? Good question and I think I will never get the answer, but I'm just glad that I have it.
The firts thing that made me fall in love with this balm is the fresh lemon scent. I just love it. It's pretty strong, but not sickening. You don't even have to put close to your nose and you can smell it.
It has a yellow color which makes it more lemony. The texture is hard, it's a wax-like balm, but as soon as you put it on your cuticles it becomes oily/greasy and a little bit sticky. It's moisturizing very well and leaves a shiny coat on your skin, but absorbs quickly. I know it is made for cuticles, but I also use it as a lip balm. And it works just great! It keeps the lips and the cuticles soft. But honestly, you can put on your feet too or wherever you have a cracked, dry skin.
My problem is the tin though. Looks really cute, but it's really difficult to open and I have to fight with it sometimes. So what I do is I don't close it completey, I just gently put the lid on the jar and I don't push it all the way down. Like this I can open it easily.
It really smooths dry, cracked skin around the nails, but you have to use it on a daily basis. I apply it once or twice a day. And what's the awesome thing about it? It lasts forever. I use it since last winter and it still looks like almost brand new. Oh and it fits in your purse too!:)
I highly recommend it to everyone! It's natural, effective, it smells lovely and the price is wallet friendly.
