This product is completely natural and that's the main reason I got it. Unfortunately, despite the good ingredients I was underwhelmed. Firstly its R20 so I expect a lipbalm to be decent for the price because other ones are a lot cheaper out there.
The packaging is really cheap. It really looks homemade and very basic. I could live with that if the product was great but... The texture of the balm is very hard - it really feels waxy. It is moisturising though but not the most penetrating. It offers more of a layer of protection rather that moisture. The main thing I disliked was the smell - it is not offensive but just smells a bit oldish and definitely not like naartjes. I do understand that its is hard to keep a product in top notch condition without preservatives but they should at least put an expiry date on so that people can tell whether the product is fresh...I just didn't feel that mine was
I can't say the whole brand is rubbish but if you want to buy this natural product - first make sure that the one you are buying is definitely fresh. I do commend them on using all natural ingredients.
