Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm Tin 3 oz Review Summary

Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm Tin is a natural, concentrated lip balm to heal dry, chapped lips and provide protection. It smooths on easily, but only if you can get the tin open. PattyTherre says, “A balm to sooth chapped, dry lips - that would be an good product for me if I didn't have to fight with the tin to open it.” Antbb agrees. She likes the product, when she can get the tin open. Most find the peppermint tingle pleasant and the effectiveness of the Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm Tin to be good. However, others find that hard to open tin and the need to apply frequently and with their fingers to be a con. Then again, many agree with Njchicaa, “I like the the thickness, the ease of application, and the lovely cooling/tingling sensation that it creates on my mouth.“ What do your lips say? read and compare the thousands of lip product reviews on hundreds of products.

I usually don't buy Burt's Bees products because they have been very hit-or-miss for me.  In fact, I tried this product once before in the stick form and was disappointed with it.  I had to spend ten minutes browsing around in a drug store last week while I was waiting for a prescription to be filled.  Of...

My daughter gave me some Burt's Bees products for my birthday. Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm and another product came on a stuffed animal which I'll talk about in a moment.

Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm has its pros and cons:

Pros

Quick View

Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm Tin "World's Best Lip Balm" is a good natural lip balm. But the packaging stinks. It's better to buy a stick of Burt's Bees balm than fight with the tin to get it to open.

Full View

Burt's Bees is dedicated to making natural products and I respect them for that. I try to use natural products when I can and it's easy to use natural lip balms because so many ingredients from nature are good for the lips. Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm Tin "World's Best Lip Balm" is good but by no means the best. I would like it much more if I could OPEN the tin! I can't tell you...

Ok the product INSIDE the jar is great.  Makes your lips soft and smooth.  But the TIN??  I mean reasearch this stuff YOU CANT OPEN THE TIN.  Never.  I eventually threw away the tin and all its lovely product because to open it, it is a pain the rear.  And lets say you put on a bit of hand lotion before hand well give it up you are not going to be able to open that tin never ever.  I quit buying this lovely product because of the tin

I am a huge fan of Burt's Bees products because they are made with high quality ingredients that are organic and natural.  My overall favorite product by this line is the Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm Tin 3 oz because it feels great on my lips and really keeps them smooth.  The tin is a little hard to apply because you do it with your finger, but it feels so good on my lips.  There isn't really a scent to the product and it feels soothing and cooling on my lips.  I found the tin for less than $5 and it is easy to take with you for lip protection anywhere.  I work outside so my lips are prone...

This smells refreshing, goes on smoothly and is soothing to the lips.   I find the mint to be comforting and refreshing and it works so well. It goes on easily and has nice natural ingredients. I like it very much when I can get that little tin open. What is this thing some medieval torture device. The balm comes in a little tin with a lid that is adult, pet and child proof. I have given up in utter frustration at trying to pry the little demon off so I could polish up my lips. I really don't use this product anymore because of the packaging. Though I do say use it if you have the ability to...

I received Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm Tin 3 oz as part of a gift set from a friend who loves the stuff.  Frankly, I don't see why.

First off, the tin is cute.  BUT, it's not as handly to me as say a tube of Chapstick. Sometimes the tin gets stuck.   Also, I don't really like having to apply the lip balm with my finger. 

I guess it does work but I always feel like I have to keep reapplying it.  I don't like the smell too much.  It's kind of waxy-peppermint smelling.  Which gets stuck on your finger because you have to apply it with your finger so both your lips and finger smell like...

Re:

 How to open the tin.

Step One : Catch the bottom half tin with your thumb and index fingers of your right hand.

Step Two:  Catch the top half tin with your thumb and index fingers of your left hand.

Step Three: Twist the top half clockwise and the bottom half counterclockwise.

Step Four: Remove the top and use the lip balm.

If it doesn't work, please repeat Step Three.

 

The lip balm is not made of metal and it melts when temperature exceeds 110F.

Once I left it in the dryer so the balm reshaped but I can still use it.

this is the only lip balm I've used consistently over the past 2 years now! I love how natural it is and the fact that it works sooooo welll on dry lips. It contains all these natural herbal ingredients, including peppermint, so it gets tingly after you put it on. Even my boyfriend steals some from me!

Yes, ok, the tin is sometimes a bt frustrating to open but I really think that is a small issue. The new tin I recently bought is designed slightly differently to make opening it easier.

It doesn't have a taste, which may be good or bad to some people.

A smidge hard to CLOSE, I've found.  But as long as you don't mind getting your fingers dirty, this is an excellent product! 

Moisturizes and soothes dry chapped lips.  Very comforting to someone whith constant chapped lips. 

Very reasonably priced.  Is also available in tubes, and different formulas.  With all the chemicals going into our bodies these days, it's nice to have a product line that you can count on AND read and understand the ingreedients label!

The first time I used this I was hooked.  Most other lip balms after a few weeks I get the irritated lips and need to switch to another brand.  However, this one has never irritated my lips and I love the minty cooling effect you get whenever you put it on your lips.  I like that it doesn't have any excessive shine that looks like I just ate something fried.  Now I only stock this lip balm and recently bought in bulk so I never have to run out again!

I've been using many different types of lip balm, but this Burt's Bee lip balm has to be my favorite. It is inexpensive, natural, and really leaves my lips moisurize for hours. It does not have aftertaste and not oily. I love the small tin the lip balm comes in, even though sometimes it is a little difficult to open. Amazing and inexpensive.

Burt's Lip Balm is the best I've used. Other balms seem to waer off or even worsen the problem! Burt's is soothing and heals the chapping!  The best part is it is a great company to support, mostly natural product [feel good about what's on your mouth!], and free of animal cruelty!
