I got a sample tin as a gift. As with most other Burt's Bees products, I was not impressed. Sure it moisturized, but it was difficult to use and smelled disgusting.

I received the 3oz tin as a gift. If I need to take it somewhere, I put it in a ziploc so that it doesn't melt everywhere if I accidentally leave it in some sunshine. It does smooth out the dry...

PROS: It does a very good job of moisturizing my hands. Very good for my dry knuckles and cuticles. I've even used it on my face when my skin was peeling terribly from the winter weather--I was...

I use this everywhere, it's amazing on lips and elbows! Love the natural herbal scent. It's probably too greasy for normal and slightly dry skin, but for my superdry skin it works wonders. I use...

This stuff does it's job. It keeps skin moisturized. However, I can't stand the smell of these or the greasiness. I would prefer a normal hand lotion.

I don't care for this at all. I got a small tin of this in a gift set. The texture is so greasy and I can feel it sitting on top of my skin. The smell is quite overwhelming as well ~ similar to...

As most others have noted before, there is a strong herbally smell to it, and you can almost smell the wax too, but it's hardly offensive to me. It is greasy, but not enough for me to leave...

I am one of the few who loves the scent. I absolutely adore the scent, it's very relaxing. Yes, it smells of the eucalyptus tree, as if you rubbed the leaves between your palms. I can see where the...

This product smells like an old man or some cheap candle or something, can't quite put my finger on it. The jar is huge and it was pretty expensive, even though I got it on sale for around $10. It...

I have both the large and small tins of this product. It is extremely useful because of the many things you can use it for. It is a salve, so be aware that it might feel a little greasy....

This salve is so greasy...it's no fun to put on because it never seems to absorb (and it doesn't smell very pretty in my opinion). Worse yet, in spite of all the grease it doesnt make any...
