I've used the beeswax balm from the same company for years - last year I found this at my local drugstore and since pomegranate is my favorite fruit, I tried it - it's now THE balm for daily use. The smell is great, it's sheer and provides a slight amount of color (ever so slight) and shine. It never looks or feels like a sticky lip gloss or dry and waxy like other balms. For around $3 (at the drugstore) it lasts a long time and I can have one in each bag and pocket. Highly recommended!

I like Burt's Bee's products but the original beeswax lip balm from them is a little, well minty, which some people really like but I'm not a huge fan of. I picked this up and was in love! Number one, its natural, which I love, and fairly cheap AND lasts a long time which makes me even happier. It smells really, really good and it makes my lips smooth and moisturized...it really takes care of those chapped lips. I would definitely recommend this to anyone. Its definitely better then a lot of other (more expensive) lip balms I have tried.

Like everyone else has said, this is pretty much as good as lip balms get. I spend my summers working at a camp in the dry heat of the Arizona sun, and I go through tubes of this stuff. It's amazing. The smell is wonderful, and I just love knowing that I'm not puting potrolium or some other outrageous crap on my body. Also, no animal testing is a huge plus!

I'm a big fan of Burt's Bees products and this product is one of the reasons why. I like their regular lip balm too ( the minty aroma is great ) but for those that don't like mint, this is the one to try.

It has a mild sweet smell and moisturizes well too.

Burt's Bees Replenishing Lip Balm
Pomegranate, .15oz

This is a decent lip balm that is very moisturizing. It hydrates lips much better than the Original version, although I prefer the peppermint flavor over this. I like pomegranate, but they made this a little too flavored. Could have done without the extra "flavor" ingredient and just stuck with the natural pomegranate oil. I also don't like the red color. I use lip balm under my lipstick & prefer not to have competing colors. And the color ingredient (Carmine) can be derived from insects although there are vegetable alternatives too. Despite the flavor & color this is still 100% natural. Overall it was an ok lip balm, but I probably won't be purchasing again. I only bought it because my favorite lip balm, Dr. Bronners peppermint Lip Balm Organic-Peppermint 0.15 Ounces was not available in the store, but Burt's Bees is definitely no replacement for Bronner's. Bronner's is about the same price, has organic ingredients & is overall a better lip balm.

When I first bought this balm I didn't think that I liked it. It seemed like the Pomegranate aroma was too strong. I gave it a second shot months later and now I'm in love! It's non-greasy...smoothest lip balm I've ever used. It lasts a great deal longer than others and you get a lot in the tube :) I love the original Burt's Bees balms too, the peppermint and the honey but this one is superior!

But can't match the original! I liked this; it's moisturizing, goes on smoothly, and is not heavy or sticky. I found the pomegranate flavor to be just okay; I thought it was a little bitter. I still like it, but it's not as soothing and refreshing as the original formula.

This is probably one of the worst lip balms I have ever used -- total letdown. It may be that I end up licking my lips more or something, but living in dry Colorado, this stuff is not good.

I love this particular Bert Bee's product but sometimes it is hard to find in the store and that was the only reason I gave in and ordered it. Had I known that after what I paid divided by 2 it would be the same or more than the store,I wouldn't have purchased it online.

This lip balm has its pros and cons. So lets start with the pros. I like to keep my lip balm in my pocket all day and apply as needed, but some lip balms get really soft and mushy when I do that. This lip balm does not do that though. It stays nice and solid all day long. Also, I like that it keeps my lips soft and protected from the weather, and of course I like that it's all natural. Although my husband doesn't seem to find it very appealing, I think it has a pleasant, yet mild scent of sweet fruit. The biggest con to me is that my lips aren't glossy at all after putting it on. I like my lip balms to be just a little glossy to add a hint of shimmer to my smile. Also, I notice that I have to reapply more often than traditional non-natural lip balms. I will keep using this brand for now, but I plan to keep searching for a better lip balm for me. I think this is a great product for those who want to cure chapped lips without a glossy finish, but for those that want gloss we need to keep looking.
