5.0 out of 5 stars Best Lip Balm in the World, August 22, 2007

I have used this lip balm for about 7 years and it's hands down the best. I've tried a lot of balms, too! You know that "lip scum" we all get? This lip balm actually gets rid of it, I don't know how. And unlike other lip balms that made you have to apply more and more, this lip balm moisturizes your lips in a way that stays longer, so you aren't constantly reapplying it. Lastly, I have a problem with getting itchy irritation from some skin products and this lip balm doesn't irritate my skin at all. Love love love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best lip balm I've ever used, February 13, 2007

By 

Bee (CO United States) - See all my reviews

This amazing balm saved me from chapped lips from hell. Over the last week, my lips became inexplicably, painfully chapped - almost as if they'd been badly irritated by a caustic substance. Yeah, it's winter, it's dry, but this was unlike any other chapped lip experience I've had.

I tried a couple of balms I had around, but they just aggravated the situation with menthol, mint, camphor, menthol, peppermint or whatever gets put into these things to give you that cool, zippy feeling. Horrible, painful, made things much worse. I longed for just a bland, gentle ointment that would soothe and moisturize, but my lips continued to burn and the skin just kept tightening and flaking. My lips were bright red.

I finally found Karite-Lips, and the healing began. I can't express how relieved I was to put something on my lips that didn't sting, but just soothed and calmed my tortured, painful skin. The vanilla scent is perfect, the shea butter is amazing, and my lips are finally starting to heal.

Worth every single penny.

5.0 out of 5 stars Leaves lips silky soft and vanilla scented!, September 30, 2006

(VINE VOICE)   

Mode de Vie Karite lips is a superior lip balm that contains a high concentration of shea butter for maximum moisturizing and regeneration of dry skin. You can tell this balm has a lot of shea butter in it because the initial application of the balm is slightly grainy--this is a characteristic of pure shea butter. After several applications the balm goes on smooth and soft. Karite lips leaves the lips silky smooth and protected, providing a layer of silky emollients that stay on the lips for a while unlike some lip balms which require constant re-application. The natural vanilla in the balm provides a delicious scent and flavor. This wonderful lip balm stick costs a little more but lasts a long time.

Shea butter is made from the nuts of the Karite tree from West Africa. Apparently studies have been done on shea butter which reveal some miraculous properties of this ingredient. It can aid cell regeneration and capillary circulation which aids healing of the epidermis. Also, it has restructuring effects on the skin and dry hair.
