Hello ladies, I hope everyone is having a great day.
Today let us talk about another product from the Himalaya Herbals range. It is their cocoa butter lip balm. They do have a lip butter which comes in a tiny tub packaging but because I am more comfortable with this lipstick like packaging, I got this one.

In Detail Himalaya Herbals Intensive Moisturizing Cocoa Butter Lip Balm Review and My Experience
This lip balm comes in a lovely lipstick like packaging with a twist up mechanism. The outer cover is transparent on the top so that one can look inside the bullet of the lippie. Very nice packaging overall with a smooth Himalaya Herbals theme.
When we look at the balm, it is almost opaque. Upon application it is transparent. The balm smells like cocoa butter and vanilla which I totally love. Although they haven’t mentioned the complete list of ingredients, I am trusting them to have put in at least some natural ingredients. The texture of the lip balm is smooth, not overly waxy which is a huge plus point. This is the reason why I really like applying this underneath my lipsticks.
How I Use it
1. Daily morning and evening after washing my face.
2. Underneath a lipstick.
3. Before going to bed.
4. Anytime I feel my lips feel dry.
Effects
This lip balm does the job of providing soft supple lips and keeps the lips hydrated for 4-5 hours. After that we do need reapplication. It is transparent, does not give any colour/tint on the lips which is okay I think since it is meant to be a natural product. Upon liberal application overnight this shows a significant improvement in cases of chapped lips. For completely healing chapped lips, you would need to use this for 2-3 days.
I am quite satisfied with this lip balm. Although I do feel that the price is a bit on the higher side if we compare the other options available to us in the market. However overall it is a decent product. Does the job of a nice lip balm.

MBF Advices
As the season is changing, lips tend to get dry. Please keep the lips hydrated at all times and let us make it a habit to carry one lip balm in the handbag wherever we go. Dry and chapped lips never make a good impression. Lips are anatomically a mucocutaneous junction, and naturally tend to dry up more. So let us keep our lips hydrated at all times. Also, never forget to use a lip balm at night before going to sleep.
Will I Repurchase this?
I am quite satisfied by how it performed. Repurchase, well may be. I would have loved to try if they had more variants.
