currently listening : Lady Gaga - Poker Face

How's weekend ... beauty peeps???? enjoy it? or u just staying at home and pampered yourself lying on bed..with some titbits,indulging vanilla ice-cream, choc & etc-etc...lepaking like nobody business & watching your fav tv series!! ??....

oooh.... i'm not going to story about my weekend cos so far...my weekend is just the same as the previous previous weekend ;).

okay now...i'm going to make a quick review about this Rosebud Salve....

First Prepared by a Druggist in 1892 - New Package Adopted in 1962
A Reliable Family Salve

Since 1895, this world-famous salve has been lauded by fashion magazines, make-up artists, and celebrities as their number one preferred lip balm. In addition to being a wonderful lip moisturizer, natural-looking lip gloss and lipstick base, it is still a family favorite to aid in the relief of chapped and dry skin, blemishes, diaper rash, and detergent burns.


I bought the original Rosbud Salve which cost USD5.59 from drugstore...or approx rm33...from the spree..Well, after all the hype over this product i managed to order 1 for myself, & of cos the cute tin..me likey!

Hmm... when i received & open this tin... i'm kinda shocked to see that the salve is not into it position, it was melting ontheway here.....and terbalik-balik so the salve also...terbalik..too.. hahahaha...it's okay...i remove it back to its position...i'm not blaming anyone for this. ;)...

The texture/scent:
greasy texture... maybe due to petrolatum base, clear pinky color...
it has very classic scent...i'm not sure what it is...hmmm....bother me sometimes!but not overpowering.
if you dont like the original salve you might also try other flavor such as:Brambleberry Rose lip balm,Minted Rose, Strawberry, Smith's Metholated, or the latest one is Mocha Rose.

PRO :
  • give glossy effect for lips.
  • moisturise lips from night(before sleep) & till morning.
  • multipurpose (eye-shadow base,cuticles, chapped and dry skin, blemishes, diaper rash, and detergent burns & etc).
  • nice packaging.
COns:
  • you have to use ur finger to apply it.
  • melting easily... make sure do not store under the hot weather.
  • not available in Malaysia.
  • rather pricey but wait!! it contained (22g).
Rating : 3.8/5

okay..peeps!! till then...chiowwww.... ;).
