5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant :-) August 4, 2008

By Little Miss Cutey

Size Name:0.15 oz

I've been using Burt's Bees for years now and FINALLY it's available in Australia (I usually stock up when I'm in the States). I've always been a fan of their natural products and the ones I've tried, are beautiful and good quality considering the fact that they're relatively inexpensive.
This lip balm is one of the best I've ever tried (apart from Kiehl's). It is very soothing and moisturising and even though it has the peppermint and beeswax and coconut oil and rosemary oil, it's a nice taste that isn't offensive. The peppermint does give you a little tingle at first but it's not overpowering. You can use this as often as you want during the day and I find that in winter I am using it much more because I find it protects against the cold and the wind.
I love this product and thankfully now I can buy it here. I highly recommend this because it truly makes your lips soft and smooth and it's inexpensive to boot.

5.0 out of 5 stars You can't go wrong with these. August 28, 2009

By Jaewoo Kim TOP 1000 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

Size Name:0.15 oz

I have used these for 6 years now. I first used these when I was taking a medication which temporarily made my lips very dry and these very quickly alleviated my problem. Now, I no longer need to use these everyday but I still do because they prevent any cracking or chapping of my lips.

I have used Chapstick and various other competing products, yet this one worked the best. Please note, I think there are very few, if any, bad lip balms out there, and I have used quite a few different ones. If your primary concern is cost, then you may want to try competing products which works almost as well at around 33% lower cost.

The Burt's Bee wax lip balm sticks to your lips very tightly without leaving any undue residue. There will be some residue, but the residue wax is lighter than the competing products. Furthermore, the wax stays on for a longer period and moisturizes better than the competing products. Another benefit of these lip balms is their higher melting temperature. Even when you put these in your pocket, they will withstand the heat very well and still glide on very smoothly without smudging your lips.

If you are looking for a high end lip balm that ranks as one of the best in the market, then this lip balm will fit your needs very nicely.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT lip Balm! And, if you're inventive... July 22, 2006

By M.D. Edwards VINE™ VOICE

Color Name:One Color|Size Name:.3 oz.

...and attentive, you'll notice that you get twice as much in the tin as you do the tube version, for the same price. I buy a few of the Burt's Bees lip balm tubes and, when they're empty, I put my candlemaking skills to use with the tins of Burt's Bees lip balm that I've bought:

Get a pair of visegrips, and adjust them so that they snugly hold the tin. You'll want to squeeze the tin lightly to make a tiny v-shaped pouring spout for refilling the tubes. I heat up one of my electric burners over low heat, place the tin on it until the wax begins to melt, then I carefully place the visegrips around the tin to hold it for pouring over the empty tubes (try not to touch the hot tin to the plastic tube, unless you want a jagged edge to your tube. I know I don't). Even if you have steady hands, like I do, you'll still end up spilling a few drops of the melted balm, but once you've refilled the tubes, recapped them, and let them sit to cool, those old tubes will be as good as new!

You get two for the price of one with these tins and a few empty balm tubes, with no quality loss. And, if you're thinking of melting these over a candle, don't do it - I've tried that, and if you don't mind getting ash into your balm, go right ahead. Otherwise, the smoke will collect on the bottom of the tin, and simply discolor your fabulous Burt's Bees balm. And nobody wants that!

5.0 out of 5 stars Burt makes me feel all tingly! September 29, 2005

By Myra Binnicker

Color Name:One Color|Size Name:.3 oz.

I have a wicked problem with dry lips. My bottom lip will actually crack down the center and bleed with lip balm on it. It really hurts too. This was a regular problem until I picked up a little tin of this stuff. It healed the cracks I had and I haven't had the problem since. It does an amazing job at moisturizing without feeling heavy or gunky on my lips. It has peppermint oil in it that makes your lips tingly (but not overdone) and the little tin fits better than a tube in my jeans pocket. Despite the tingling there's not much of a taste to it and it doesn't make your lips all glossy when you don't want them to be (which means my husband will use it too.)It cost a tad bit more than some traditional drug store lip balms but it goes a long way and you are getting what you pay for.

5.0 out of 5 stars My current favourite product January 6, 2005

By Kathleen N. Rhue

Size Name:0.15 oz

I am a lip balm junky and I have to admit this is my favourite by far. I always have a tube in arms reach-one in my purse, one in my car, one on my desk. This lip balm is relatively inexpensive and is the best on the market. Because of the natural ingredients, it actually helps heal, not just moisturize, my chapped lips. I love the tingle I get when I first apply it, like I can feel it starting to work. The product is clear, which is great. Although it has some peppermint and coconut and rosemary, it is very subtle in aroma. Try it, you'll be hooked.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great under lipstick, lips may peel at first November 1, 2010

By Kimme

Size Name:0.15 oz

I started using Burt's Bees after I got the flu, I was dehydrated and my lips were showing it. Initially this product did not contain enough moisture to nurse my peeling chapped dried lips back to health. After a while I switched to Burt's Bees and lips started peeling again! This may have been a reaction to the menthol in the product, but continued using and am happy I did.

The consistency is thick but not too heavy. It stays in place for a long time, under gloss and under lipstick. I do not recommend using this over a lipstick-it will cause the lipstick to rub off. This is also best when used over time-not just for a week two but as preventative care used consistently year-round. The one down side is this product contains no sunscreen, so a good lip sunscreen really needs to be used in conjunction with this.
