Use Directions:

Apply evenly and liberally on your lips, as often as needed.


Price: Rs. 125 for 10 gm tub

What I liked: 
1. It is petroleum, silicon, artificial colors & preservative free! (so they claim)

2. The ingredient list - it reads just awesome - full of natural butters & oils

3. It smells really nice - christmasy & wintery. It has a chocolate smell, but it isn't that nauseating, fake one. This one is mellow & soothing. 

4. It really works! It soothes the lips & really softens them over time.

5. Priced decently and readily available at most stores. It is also packaged well in a blister pack ensuring that one always gets an unopened, untouched tub. 

What could be better: 
1. While the texture is smooth, it does feel a bit heavy on the lips. I wouldn't wear this during the day, or under lipsticks.

2. It tends to leave a whitish / grey cast on the lips

3. It doesn't really heal chapped lips. It does reduce them by 50%, but they won't go away completely. Plus this takes a few days to really heal the lips. Don't expect instant results. 

4. Tub packaging. While I'm okay with tub packs for creams, for lip balms I do prefer tubes. Also while I like the inner white rim, I don't like the plastic tub - it just feels tacky. 

Repurchase: Yes, I use this at night & it has really helped my lips. More than that even hubby likes it & says this is his favourite lip balm to use, so I see this being a permanent fixture in the house.
