MRP: 0.5 fl. oz. Tube- $7.00
0.6 fl. oz. Jar- $7.50- 17g (Rs. 495/- here)

Ingredients:

It comes both in tube and jar form..which is nice..just that the jar thing costs only 50 cents more but the qty is 0.1 fl. oz. more..

Kiehl’s Lip Balm #1 is one of their bestsellers..it is sold every 9 seconds in the world…in fact it is one product our very own Katrina Kaif cannot live without..any many other stars swear by it..well I totally agree !

I am using the jar one..it comes with a protective seal and is tightly secured..it looks light yellow in the jar but comes off transparent like petroleum jelly..the texture is like petroleum jelly too..

It does not have any smell and spreads around smoothly on the lips..I usually use it at nights..this is my lip savior in these harsh winters..my lips were getting too dry and chapped especially my upper lip..I am so glad I found this..

Pros:

1. It does what it claims..helps protect lips from being chapped and from the dry winters.
2. It contains sweet almond oil and cotton seed oil and Vitamins A and E..I quite liked the ingredients.
3. Does not have any smell.
4. Even though they are priced at 495/- the quantity is huge enough..so decently priced.
5. Comes in both tube and jar form..so you can select a tube if you feel thats more hygienic.
6. It gets absorbed in a few minutes and leaves the lips moist, soft and supple. I usually prefer keeping it overnight.
7. Octinoxate will help protect lips from the sun.

Cons:

1. Difference in price is less and quantity is more for the tube form.
2. Not available everywhere..Kiehl’s is presently in Delhi and Mumbai.

No other cons with it..if you suffer from dry lips..you should surely give this a try..your lips would love this !
