This product is ok - I finished it, but I haven't repurchased. I'm happy that it's a natural product so when it is eaten off I'm not getting any nasties. I'm also pleased that this is a New Zealand brand, and they have a factory in Christchurch.
Downsides: But I just feel like it's straight up honey, rather than being a lip balm. I think the texture is just too thin for my tastes.
Overall pretty impressed with this lip balm, keeps my lips nourished and moisturised. I like that it has natural and organic ingredients such as Manuka honey , sweet almond oil and white tea. I have noticed a difference in how moisturiser my lips are since using this but still think carmex comes out on top. The flavour/ taste is subtle . I would highly recommend for people who want a natural lip balm alternative.
Tips: It says to use this to protect against the harsh effects of heat and cold so must be good to use in very hot/ cold temperatures when your lips are chapped.
This lip balm honestly feels like Vaseline on the lips as in its very moisturising but very greasy. This comes in a handy plastic tube with a slanted tip which makes for easy application. It is a clear jelly type balm that is great over lipstick for a more glossy look. I paid $10 for this balm so do believe it’s good value for money as it did last for ages. There are other balms I prefer but wouldn’t rule out using this again as it’s great for in the handbag and does moisturise quite well.
I received the Linden Leaves lip balm as a Christmas gift and it is a lovely lip balm to keep beside my bed. With ingredients like manuka honey and almond oil, it has a slightly sweet, natural scent and a nourishing, thin yet rich texture. It is easy to apply with a slanted applicator - also making it a good option to keep in your handbag or take travelling, when you don't want to dip a dirty finger into a pot of lip balm.
If using this lip balm in the morning, I apply it at the start of my routine so that it has time on my lips before I apply lipstick. It is quite nourishing and almost oily, so I prefer to apply it in the evening when I can be more generous with my application. I am left with smooth, hydrated lips in the morning.
I recently received this lip balm in a goodie box. Its a lovely lip balm, but it almost feels as though it sits on the lips as opposed to soaking into them. Personally i prefer my blistex that i have used for years and years, however this is nice for a quick pick me up when your lips get dry - especially in those cold months. It doesn't smell of much - maybe a little like vaseline?
Tips: Good to use for a general lip conditioner unless your lips are really struggling - then it would be best to use something a little stronger.
I was gifted this product and felt I had to use it as the family member always asks how the presents were, but it’s just not nice. It felt like oil on my lips, I actually wondered if it had separated in the tube so I squeezed about a 20 cent piece sized amount onto a tissue until it came out consistently white. It doesn’t taste or smell like honey, in fact it didn’t smell like almonds either. It smelt oily and tasted horrible, I had to wipe it off every time I tried it and even then I could taste the oil. I’ve never used anything like it.
