    This product is great. It has so many usages to it, but I use it for my chapped lips. It glides on smoothly and makes my lips nice and soft. I love the fact that this product has no petroleum.

    I am so glad Alba came up with this. It's a great alternative to Vaseline and Aquafor, which seal off your skin from moisture. I used Vaseline for months and months on my cuticles because there was...

    Nice natural alternative to Vaseline. I use it under my eyes when I tint my lashes. I don't find it hydrating enough to use as a lip balm. I got mine at www.iherb.com which ships internationally.
