I love Prime Venom as a balm for everyday wear. The cinnamon and other spices bring a lovely, natural flush to the lips. I adore the flavor, as cinnamon is one of my favorites.
$20 is a lot for lip balm, however it does make my lipstick last longer when I use it as a primer. In that respect it saves money on lipstick. (We all know how expensive that can be!)
It does not kiss off! It is completely clear and moisturizes nicely, and is not sticky at all! It is leaves a "satin" finish-not glossy but not completely matte.
I find myself not wanting to use any of my other balms! Aside from the $20 price tag, I love everything about Prime Venom! My ideal price for it is $12-15. Had it cost a bit less it would get a perfect score. With that said, I am still planning on keeping this in my case at all times, and reordering when I get to the last half inch so I do not ever run out!
I also want to mention how hard the balm is; it does not melt easily, but needs to be eased over the lips to allow it to soften. I think the harder base makes it last longer than the softer ones.
Enjoy!

Dr Bronner's magic soaps come in a variety of scents (Lavender, Tea Tree, and Unscented, to name a few) and are very concentrated, so the bottle of liquid goes a long way. It is very mild, great for all skin types as it is non drying and gentle. I used this after getting tattoos and was impressed at how well it not only kept the area clean, but it also calmed it and aided in the healing process. I find the formula very nourishing and all around amazing! I have even used the Peppermint scented one as a toothpaste substitute once when I ran out! And it was pleasant tasting! I would not do this with any other soap on the market.
It really is magic-it can degrease anything, but all the while doing so naturally. I am in love with the Tea Tree scent in the morning as it is energizing, and Lavender in the evening for it's natural calming properties.

The scent is similar to fresh cut lilies, and the conditioning power is remarkable. I use this conditioner not because I have color treated hair, but because the scent is so lovely and fresh. My hair feels pampered and is very soft after use, and it is heaven to have this scent linger in my hair throughout the day. I use this with the shampoo to maximize the staying power of the fragrance. -

NVEY Eco Erase
A completely organic concealer that is creamy and sheer, but offers a buildable coverage to erase redness and imperfections. I liked the purity of the ingredients and how easy the cream blends. A must for any make up set-up.

A lovely, cooling gloss that makes lips appear fuller and quite luscious. The colors are sheer and are great on any skin tone. Upon the initial application, they have a cool, stingy sensation. They are very smooth and feel wonderful on the lips. I love how they are not sticky at all, but yield high shine. -
