I used to love The Body shop lip balms as a kid. However, as an adult they are completely ineffective if you're actually looking for something to hydrate your lips. When applied, my lips just felt very sticky. After ten minutes max the product was completely gone from my lips - left feeling very unhydrated. The product does smell amazing, and depending on the flavor will add a tint of color for a short period of time.

Over all, I think these are a cute gift idea for stocking stuffers for perhaps younger girls, but if you're looking for a hydrating lip balm I'd go elsewhere.

The Body Shop Lip Balms, I find are do the job of moisturizing the lips but doesn't last that long.
The smell/taste/feel of the product is good. Also the coverage is good and the lip balm does make your
lips nice and shiny.

Would I buy this product again? I can't say yes or no because I would probably go to other lip balms before I would chose The Body Shop brand. If they were on sale or gift set type of deal then maybe but it wouldn't be at the top of my list.

Thank you.
