Is there anyone out there that never suffers from dry or cracked lip? Put your hands up!! .......... Okay, nobody read this either XD. Lip balm is an essential item and almost all girls (or boys) posses it. It gives an instant relief for the uber dehydrated lip. I sometimes suffer from it, so lip balm is important for me.
I've tried many lip balms before, and nothing suits me. It either dries out my lip more (hello menthol), or make it darker—I suspect that petrolatum or its derivatives is the main cause. Thus, I searched for a petroleum jelly free lip balm and I came across this: Mentholatum Organic Lip Balm.
I got it from Singapore Watson's last year. I forgot the price, but it lasts me until now. There are two flavours available: Raspberry & Strawberry, Lavender & Orange. I bought the latter one.
What It Claims:
I threw away the packaging. Thus, here's the descriptions I got from Mentholatum Malaysia website:

What It Does To Me:
This is my holy grail lip balm! The texture is velvety as it glides smoothly on my lip. I use it before going to bed, and voila! The next day, I wake up with super soft and kissable lip! The main thing is, it does NOT darken my lip!! Yay yay yay~~ <3 It also hydrate cracked and dry lip instantly, convenient for those perks-me-up moment. As for the staying power, it lasts about 4-5 hours with drinking/ eating in between. The scent? I am not sure, as it is not as strong as it was used to be. Faintly calming yet refreshing?
I apologize for the blurry before photo as my hand was shaky then, and again, I didn't check the results after shooting it. My bad.
How I Use It:
I put it on before going to bed, or for those ' emergency' moment, as it works instantly. If you suffer from terribly dry lip, try to exfoliate it first before putting on this lip balm. Re-apply whenever needed. Oh, I am wearing it now while typing this.
Have you ever tried this? What do you think of my review? Feedbacks are welcomed ^^ Thank you so much for reading!
