I was very scared to try this because I had never heard of it before.
My partner actually ended up buying it and I have been hooked ever since .

The texture is smooth and quite thick so it lathers on the lips nicely keeping them hydrated and the cherry scent is amazing

Apart from being great for lips at a fraction of the cost, Zam-buk is also great to stop an itch after a mosquito bite. The small size also makes it ideal for your handbag.

I love this too! It's mt 2nd fave because it lasts extremely long an is very well worthy of its price:-)

Only thing I don't like is that because it's so small, I tend to lose it in 1 of my many bags. Love the convenient size tho :-)

I have a little girl she is 32 months old during the winter months she struggles with severe dry face skin. I used almost everything on the market nothing helped. then I tried the cherry zambuk on her face and amazingly worked!! Her skin looks beautiful now no more red dry and flaky skin. I keep carry a tin with me where ever I go now. Its also great for dry chapped lips and its not so smelly than the regular zambuk

Let me start off by saying, I hate glosses and the like because they are sticky, messy and I can't stand the feel on my lips. I keep wanting to wipe my mouth and end up swallowing it most of the time!

Got this little container from my mom as my lips were so dry, they were starting to tear. If you've experienced this before - you'll know it HURTS!

I was a bit dubious at first, but found it worked wonderfully! It is a bit thick at first, but even I can actually stand it :)

NOTE: This is not a gloss, it is a balm!! It creates a bit of a barrier to help lips retain their moisture and it has a bit of staying-power (unlike the glosses) and my lip healed nicely. I would certainly recommend it for those who have dry or chapped lips. Bonus - the cherry fragrance.

I LOVE THE CHERRY ZAM BUK Chery

I love this lip balm. I love the cherry scent and the packaging. Quite moisturizing and it doesn't matter that I constantly manage to lose my lip balms as this is only R5 and it lasts for ages. I haven't tried the original.

Introducing the real makoya is a softer version, the Lipbalm!
Sweet smelling cherry just glides on to lips for lasting protection against chapping and dryness.
This new “Kiss” Cherry Lip Balm contains a combination of ingredients that bring out the pleasant cherry aroma, giving you the satisfaction and confidence of the Real Makoya.

For all those who’ve enjoyed the goodness and multi-purpose benefits of the REAL MAKOYA, the New Zam-Buk Cherry Lip Balm offers to soothe and moisturize your lips especially against Africa’s ever-changing climate conditions.

This is a compelling version of the Zam-Buk brand as it is portable, convenient and classless, for everyone’s lips, for individual and family use and is definitely good value for money.

Just like the herbal balm, this is absolutely amazing. Helps chapped lips heal almost overnight and definitely aids in prevention of cracking too. Cheap and a product of South Africa. Has a delicious, fruity flavour and gives lips a great shine.

While many seem to think Zambuk is a lip balm or lip gloss it is more of an ointment for those lil ailments. It serves to be very effective for those minor cuts or chipped lips. It's good that it comes in colour but best of all is that it still does its job to treat and cure. I choose not to use it as a lipgloss but for those who have problems of dry lips then go for it. Zambuk is famous for its minty and tingling sensation. This is a product that comes handy in my first aid kit:-)

R5, this product is SO worth it. I got it from a friend as part of a little Valentine's Day present and I've been using it everyday ever since. It's great for work, it tint's slightly and it makes me look more 'polished. it is also really hydrating which I love.

I love this product! I normally don't use any oily or glossy lip balm on my lips at night because they get really messy and wipe off on everything. I tried this product because a friend recommended it to me. For R5 I felt it was really worth it. When I opened the super cute vintage tin, I got a fruity cherry scent which immediately made me think of fresh cherries. When I applied the lip balm to my lips, it went on smooth and felt so light on my lips, like nothing was even there. I noticed that if you apply extra of the balm then lips get a bit white, so you really have to use it sparingly. When I woke up in the morning I noticed my lips were softer and smoother, and a lot more hydrated because I suffer a lot from dry lips. It's an amazing product and I'd recommend this product to anyone who wants soft smoother lips.

The Zam-Buk Cherry lip balm is a relatively great lip balm. It lasts quite long, which means that you don’t have to re-apply regularly. It also makes your lips really soft, and the cherry flavor tastes and smells divine. It doesn't color your lips unlike other cherry lip balms, which means you can apply it without a mirror and you can wear it with your favorite nude lipsticks.

The only complaint I have is that it is often a mission to get the lip palm container open. It seals tightly and it is so tiny that you can’t get a good grip. On several occasions I simply gave up, because I couldn't get it open. There is nothing more frustrating than desperately needing some lip balm and struggling for ages trying to get the container open. For little extra bucks I would rather buy another lip balm that I can easily open.

love this stuff am totally converted! it smells amazing and is so cheap and when i apply it to my dry cracked lips it instantly moisturizes it like magic :)

I LOVE anything Cherry flavour and have always used the original Zambuk for nearly everything - it even works really well as an earring cleaner - my ears get irritated and a little itchy when I wear cheaper jewellery for long periods of time and if I apply a little Zambuk to the earring before putting it in, it helps so much!

The Cherry lip balm is amazing - smells tasty and it moisturises lips so well.. and it helps the earring problem just as well as the original :)

Bought myself a tin of Cherry Zam- Buk.Good flavour.
