I tried the cherry version of this lip balm and found that alongside it being a revolting tasting lip balm that some how snuck onto my tongue without my knowledge, it also stung my lips horribly. I have sensitive lips and only use lip balms that I know don't react with me, I thought i'd give this one a go, but now it's just sulking in my bathroom never to be used again. DON'T use this this lip balm if you occasionally get a reaction to some products OR if you just don't fancy a horrible tasting balm!

Stung my lips. OUCH.
Tips: Try using Lucas' papaw ointment instead, it's natural so doesn't react with my lips, and its got an average taste.

Oh dear...
So I have to give this one a thumbs down. Not only do I think Camphor is not a smell for lipbalm but it had salicylic acid in it which I am allergic to (face comes out in a pimply blister type rash). Didn't think to check if a lipbalm contained it as it's usually found in products for oily acne prone skin. Weird. Far nicer products out there!

Don't Get the hype
I don't like this at all. From the way it feels on my lips to smell. It smells like wood it the worst way possible and doesn't feel smooth but grainy like. Would not recommend
Tips: Buy vaseline
