description

We’d only make an exception to our Provence-only rule for a very special ingredient - the inimitable Shea Butter. Used for centuries by Sub-Saharan African women to nourish and protect skin and hair, Shea Butter is an ideal beauty ingredient. We work with several thousand women in Burkina Faso to develop a sustainable, fair trade Shea Butter supply chain. So you can feel good about feeling good.

I was very disappointed by this product. It left my lips feeling very waxy. It provided minimal moisture. I found that I had to continuously reapply this to my lips. I expected so much more from...

100% shea butter in those cute little tins. I warm up the butter then apply to moist lips. Nothing else works this good for me. Other than moisturizing, the best thing about it is that it does...

I was in the L'Occitane store to purchase some hand cream and bubble bath and I stumbled upon this lip balm at the register. The lip balm smells unbelievably good. The lip balm helps soften my...

I expected much more from this product. It's pretty hard to apply - it doesn't warm up and melt a bit like other lip balms. + I think it actually dries my lips.

This is another wonderful balm from L'Occitane. The flavor is nice, not overwhelming and it's a great moisturizer. It's a great lip balm to have in your day bag and the shea butter is wonderful!

I cannot believe how much they sell this for. I just bought pure shea butter in 500 g container for 5 dollars, and i prefer it to this.

I prefer a shinier, glossier feeling with a lip balm but this is an effective moisturiser for my lips. In Australia it’s a little on the expensive side and as I’m a devotee of the famous Lucas Paw...

The tin is cute, and a pleasant-but-hard-to-describe scent. Those are the good things, so of course i'll follow with the bad things: as the last reviewer said, my lips felt smooth but not at all...

I can not believe that I am only the 2nd person reviewing this. It has been my holy grail for about two years now! One tin lasts me about a year and I apply it multiple times throughout the day. It...

I am amazed that no one else had open a new review for the non-tinted, plain old gd sheer butter. I had tried the tinted one (got a review for that as well) but not as gd as the original one with...
