Organic lip balm - lip balm discontinued by Evolution of Smooth - review by souviet

I have had these little lip balms for quite some time. I like the majority of them, but some...are rather so so. I own the Honeysuckle, Strawberry, Summer fruit, and Passion fruit (which is not offered on Eden, thus it will not be mentioned from this point.)

The honeysuckle and strawberry flavors are excellent. They're sweet and do not take on a chemically smell or flavor. The summer fruit flavor, however, is absolutely disgusting. (This is why I picked it as the item my review is tied to.) I was quick to give it to my little sibling, who seems to like chemically messes and had one of these already.

The lip balms work fairly well, but is not ultimately what I desire in a lip balm. (I'm far too attached to bee's wax.) It sort of just sits on the lips, and doesn't do much to help my poor lips. It's made of organic items, mostly all kinds of extracts from plants.
These are: Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Beeswax (Cire D'abeille), Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Natural Flavor, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Stevia Rebaudiana Leaf/Stem Extract*, Tocopherol, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Vaccinium Angustifolium (Blueberry) Fruit Extract, Fragaria Vesca (Strawberry) Fruit Extract, Prunus Persica (Peach) Fruit Extract, Linalool.
I think, in the end, all of this winds up making for too much for the lips and is doesn't do anything besides sitting on top of the skin.

The packaging on these are incredibly adorable, and I have them stashed into different bags I own to match my outfits. (The passion fruit actually gets the most use because of this, and the packaging is turning sort of pink from it's original purple color due to makeup.) The cap is easy to get on and off, and the latch doesn't ever wear out. The material it is made out of is much like 'velvet' textured toys, and thus will take on colors that won't go way if it comes in contact with dyes and makeup.

Overall: For just keeping your lips damp, this works well and most of the flavors I have come across are pretty tasty. The summer fruit one, however, is god awful.

This is just forever a useless item, overall. It's pretty, it's cute in a functional way. But the balm itself is useless. Do yourself a favor and pick up some nice plain bee's wax balm. Your lips will thank you.
