Product Review:
The packaging says Soothing Touch in Vanilla Chia Lip Balm with Organic Cocoa and Shea Butters. This product is Vegan safe! So that is a plus for you Vegans.This is the first time I purchased a Lip Balm from this Brand and when I was perusing  around their website  I was very happy to see that they have other products as well. When I first popped open the cap and smelled this, it was so yummy that I went ahead and bought it despite it costing almost $5.00 at checkout! (I had a gift card at the time). Anyway, despite the wonderful, warming scent it had of vanilla and cocoa--maybe a hint of cloves too! Well, I found the texture on my lips to be a bit more grainy than I wanted and was used to. Usually I would moisturize my lips with a lip balm to enhance how my lips would look when applying lip stick, lip glosses, and the like. However, this lip balm did not sit well under other lip make-up products. So that is fine, I decided to use this balm more by itself. In the end sadly, it is not my go to lip balm and for the price it discourages me to buy it as a regular lip balm when I can only use it one way. Now I use it sparingly, only when I feel like smelling that vanilla/cocoa mixture. I think this would be perfect during the cold months when you'd could snuggle with your significant other, he or she would really love smelling your face when you are wearing this ;D. Ciao bella!
