The Newest Buzz..., July 24, 2006
This review is from: Burt's Bees Honey Lip Balm Tube (Apparel)
Burt's Bees, famous for their natural beauty products, has now added honey powder to the already delicious lip balm, known for its fresh pepperminty flavor. It was with great intrigue that I decided to try the new version. Alas, it does not have the same tingly peppermint flavor, but is milder and has more honey mystique. The texture is slightly more grainy upon application because of the honey powder, but it quickly turns silky.
Here is a comparison between this product and the original version:
Beeswax Lip Balm - Ingredients: Beeswax, coconut oil, sunflower oil, vitamin E, lanoline, peppermint oil, comfrey root extract, rosemary extract.
A soothing treat for any time of the year, minty and refreshing. Smooth application with healing comfrey root. Made me an instant Burt's Bees fan. Needs to be applied more often.
Honey Lip Balm - Ingredients: Shea butter, almond oil, cocoa butter, coconut oil, beeswax, candelila wax, lanolin, comfrey root, honey powder, rosemary extract, vegetable oil, fragrance.
A slightly more nourishing formula that seems to last a bit longer and has appeal for dry weather. Seems to last a bit longer and has a richer texture once applied. Soothing comfort, perfect for outdoor life or applying before you put on lipstick.
The only solution for anyone who misses the peppermint flavor is to apply both at the same time. I like that we now have two options because I can use the honey flavor before applying lipstick and then apply a vanilla lip gloss. I could see an entire line of various flavors appearing. How about vanilla, chocolate and cinnamon?

smells like baby powder, June 29, 2009
This review is from: Burt's Bees Honey Lip Balm Tube (Apparel)
Works well, just like the other burt's bees lip balms, but don't expect a nice fresh scent. Makes your lips smell like a baby's butt. Disconcerting scent.

Favorite lip balm, June 20, 2007
This review is from: Burt's Bees Honey Lip Balm Tube (Apparel)
Of all of the lip balms, glosses, sticks, tints, etc that settle at the bottom of my bag, this is by far my favorite. It's not mushy, it has a lovely, delicate honey scent and flavor (not a fan of the peppermint, it makes my lips burn), and it gives a great, nearly matte look. Plus, it's very emollient, lasts forever, and is very comfortable to wear. My only issue is that there's no sunscreen in it, but apart from that, it's about perfect.
