I received this a while ago when Burt's Bees had a promotion that if you signed up to their mailing list you got a free lip balm. I wasn't that impressed to begin with as it had an odd grainy texture (similar to the Nivea Light Kiss balm I referred to previously). I also had a bit of an accident which resulted in the end becoming all smooshed.
It did feel quite moisturing though and it is nicely scented (passionfruit!! yummy!!) so I decided to see if I could fix the grainy texture by remelting it. It seems to have worked. Obviously as this balm is in tube form, you need a suitable container to melt it in. I just washed out the empty pot from the Nivea balm I have just finished.

It is only SPF 8 though, so I will probably switch to something with a higher SPF in Summer.
I agree, I didn't really like the grainy texture but I found it was a really good exfoliator.
ReplyDeleteI used mine at night so when I'd wake up in the morning my lips would be silky smooth.
Good idea, I didn't think of that.
