Green Springs Body Works
Lip Service Organic Lip Balm in Citrus Bliss

$3 (+ $1.75 S&H)

[Certified organic: coconut oil, jojoba oil, sunflower oil, comfrey, plantain, and calendula infused olive oil, beeswax, pure essential oils]

This nifty vintage inspired tube has a great military/standard issue label. It's simple design is really great. It has a cute star, but the colors are sophisticated so you could pull this tube out of a Hello Kitty clutch or Prada Hobo and look oh so good.

The lip balm has a nice citrus scent. It is not overpowering and blends well with the olive oil. When you put it on you get the sweetness from the citrus then there is the mellow contrast of the oils. It is tasty but by no means are you constantly licking you lips. It is really a wonderful blend of flavors and scents that you don't need to worry about wearing or licking through.

The consistency of this balm is superb. It is solid, yet soft enough to nicely glide on, and with force applied it is sturdy enough to not splooge over the edge of the tube and onto the outline of your lips. It makes you lips feel really soft and moisturized without a film, waxy feeling, or grease.

This balm lasts a long while. I'd gauge about 4 to 5 hours worth of wear. I lost track because it lasts so long. I have also found that this balm works wonders as a lip stick or gloss base. I does stand up to some drinking and snacking, but during a meal, you will have to re-apply post eating.

Overall, this balm is a great organic find. It is sophisticated and I would warn against giving this to a child. They may be looking for a sweeter lip balm, but if you want your kid to have a balm where they are not constantly licking their lips, then maybe it's right for you.
