Hey everyone!
The dry cold season is upon us and I bet that the beauty product you reach out for most often is a 'lip balm'! The Forest Essentials Luscious Lip Balm in Sugared Rose petal comes in a beautifully packed small jar. It promises to "seal in moisture and soothe dry chapped lips, leaving them soft and glossy."
Price- Rs 595 for 5g
The fragrance of the lip balm is the first thing you notice, it smells strongly of red roses. I am not so much of a fan of this particular floral smell so this is a huge drawback for me. The smell is so over-powering that it cannot be ignored.
What makes me happy is that the product inside the jar is baby pink in color and non-waxy in texture.But, again it is not moisturising enough for dry lips. One has to constantly reapply the lip balm as it is very light weighted.The lip balm goes on almost transparent on my lips. Whatever little softening/healing it provides is short lived! The jar like packaging makes the lip balm unhygienic too!

"Overall the Forest Essentials Luscious Lip Balm is not recommended for those in search of an effective solution to dry chapped lips. Also girls like me who do not prefer strong floral fragrances stay away!
But if you are willing to add a basic light weighted lip balm to your collection for some extra pampering, go ahead!"
