Rød Ribs Læbepomade

The red currant scent is soft and fruity without being candy-like, and a single swipe melts right into my lips without any greasy residue. My chapped winter lips have been quiet ever since I started keeping this tin in my coat pocket.

The little tin feels wonderfully old-school, and the balm itself glides on with a smooth, rich texture that isn't greasy at all. My lips stayed soft through a windy commute, and that currant scent really does transport you to a Madrid pharmacy. It's easily become my desk staple.

Cracked lips were gone by the third day, and the balm glides on without that sticky feel. The tin is small enough to keep in a jeans pocket, which is exactly where it's lived since it arrived.
