As mentioned before, I like Burt's tins better than the "twist off" metal and glass pots, so it didn't lose points for that. YES, the product is greasy but this is meant to sit on your hands....

I have v bad eczema almost all over my hands and decided to give this a try after I read some rave reviews in some magazine. It is greasy and there's a medicinal smell. When I first used it, I...

I like this product, as I can keep a tin in my purse and use it as a "catch all" for anything I might need. It works well as a cuticle cream or a hand moisturizer. It is also fantastic for heels...

Chaospearl said it best: this consists of the same few ingredients of all BB's products. I spent a good 5 minutes trying to decide on which of their lotions to buy because they all sounded the same...

This did pretty much nothing for me. It's greasy and it smells.

This hand salve is my favorite moisturizing product, as I use it for everything: face, hands, legs, etc. I use it on my face at night and wake up with silky skin. If I wash my face in the...

After a year or so without this product by my bedside, I caved and picked up the big 3 oz. tin last week. I use it only at night and give both hands and elbows a good coating or two. It really...

It just didn't do much for my hands and felt too greasy.

This a hard wax like salve in a tin. It is greasy but very effective. I use it on my hands and feet and it moisturizes very well,getting rid of my dry cracked heels. Even after washing, my hands...

I had a little sample of this from a kit. I thought it was great for toting around in my purse because it is so small, and I didn't have worry about a tube that could get punctured or squashed. I...

This hand salve moisturises very well, but it is slightly greasy. I love the cute little tin container and light lavender scent. Great to slip into a small purse when you're on the go.

This is great if your hands are really dry. I don't care much for the tin packaging. And I only use this product at night before bed.

Just bought it, love the packaging. But yes, it does feel like a grease pit, and the smell smells like carmex, but It DOES leave my skin feeling silky. I like the banana hand cream better though.

This doesn't moisturize my hands very well. It leaves my hands greasy for a while, and there is no real moisture added to my skin. I have tried using it with slightly damp hands to "seal in"...

This product worked great for moisturizing but the smell gave me a horrible headache. I threw it out and I think I'll just be using almond oil to moisturize my feet and hands.
