Wow! for $3, this is the best lip balm i've ever used. This cold winter had left my lips all dry and cracked, so badly, I couldn't wear lipstick (oh-the horror!) But this stuff is great. Its a clear, thick, non-waxy balm that, unlike the famous Kiehl's, is not shiny, greasy or gloppy. I find that most lip balms are too slippery and slide off of my lips, but not ths one. It is almost like a clear "cream" balm that stays on without me having to reapply 10 times. And it really really moisturizes. My lips were 100 times better after the first application. This balm would also be great under lipstick since it stays on your lips and doesn't get all over the place. It doesn't have any color or scent. I will never not have at least 2 of these at all times!
