Rik rödvinbärsläppbalsam

The scent of this balm is exactly what I hoped for—a rich, fruity currant that’s not too sweet. It glides on smooth and my lips stayed soft through a full day of chilly wind, which is more than I can say for most tins I’ve tried.

The scent is a rich, true currant—not fake or candy-like—and the balm glides on smooth without any greasy residue. It’s been a week since I started using it and my lips haven’t chapped once, even with the dry heat indoors. This little tin clearly earned its century-long reputation.

My lips were cracked from the cold and this balm smoothed them out within a day, the rich red currant scent lingers just enough without being overpowering. The tube is small but a little goes a long way, so it's easy to keep in a coat pocket for quick touch-ups.
