Hello people from the internet!=)
So today's review is a lip balm that my friend got me as a souvenir from Czech Republic.
My friend went to Czech Republic for holiday and bought me this lip balm as well as their hand cream as souvenirs for me. I've tried the hand cream and it was nice. But this lip balm really let me down. Wanna know why? Continue reading...

Consistency/texture: more like dry oil than balm
Smell/scent: sweet apricot scent
Application/how to use: coat a light layer on your lips like a normal lip balm. Re-apply as often as needed.
How often do you use: every day
Effectiveness: not effective at all! Disappointed!
Packaging: nice, sleek, thin packaging. Travel-friendly.
Sizes: one size 15ml
Product life span: 6 months
Would you recommend to others: absolutely no!
Personal experience using it: I do not like this lip balm at all. I'm sorry to say that because I heard my friend saying that this is an amazing lip balm that people living in Czech Republic said that it is a must-buy souvenir. So I definitely do have high hopes for it. Unfortunately, it let me down really bad. It is more like a dry oil I would say than a balm. It looks like a lip gloss to me. It is not moisturising at all. I would wake up in the middle of the night because of my lips drying to the max that made me feel very uncomfortable. My lips develop more and more dry patches while using this lip balm. Also, it doesn't taste good as well, not that you should eat it but every time I apply this lip balm, it is so messy that it will always get into my mouth. Overall, not my favorite.
Would you repurchase: no
Product value/price: not sure. Friend bought this as a souvenir for me.
