I'm sure that this is a great product; however, there must be an ingredient in this lip balm that I am allergic too as this balm caused my lips to have a tingling, burning sensation and get irritated within minutes of application. On application, it felt like a Vaseline specially made to hydrate and moisturize the lips. Also, i feel like product is quite expensive in the sense that there are other drugstore products on the market that are similar to this balm and this product is nothing earth shattering.
It's very oily and reminds me of vaseline except I think i'll prefer vaseline. It works though but just not my kind of lip balm of choice.
Kiehl's Lip Balm #1 has A rich, thick and consistent texture, which reminds me of Vaseline (i.e. petrolatum jelly). I like that the balm is clear/colorless, and the product glides on easily, effortlessly and smoothly. This product brings instant relief to sore and dry lips without the heaviness or stickiness, and it sinks into the skin. The balm leaves lips smooth, soft, shiny and glossy. The con, there is no applicator... I strongly dislike using my fingers to apply any lip products. Another con is that the balm is a bit pricey 15 ml for $12.XX. I wish the product was higher on the SPF spectrum - it should be at least 15! Upon examining the ingredients, I discovered that the product is mostly petrolatum jelly - I could have paid a lot less and gotten more product had I purchased a tub of Vaseline.
This is a great product but it just reminds me of vaseline, and I can tell you, my vaseline works just fine the way it is. I've only ever received this lip balm as a free item but I would never pay the full price for it. I do appreaciate getting it for free though. And it's not a natural product so I find my lips getting chapped much sooner than a natural based one.
