Lip balm is the one product I have a lot of. Not that I don't overbuy in other categories. It's just that they don't take up a lot of space & are pretty cheap comparatively. At the moment I've more than 10 lip balms. Having said that, let's begin about the product I want to discuss today.
I've been lemming after the eos lip balms from quite some time now. And when I finally zeroed in on Organic Harvest as the dupe of my choice, I came across these on Amazon. Dexe Lip Balms come in a set of 12 with 6 flavours- strawberry, mint, lemon, blueberry, pineapple & honeydew. Each lip balm comes packaged in its own individual plastic casing with a cardboard backrest. All the information is printed on the back of each packet as well as on the box housing all of these. Once you remove the packaging there is nothing written on the lip balm itself, not even the expiry date. The packaging is sturdy though. You can throw this in the bag with other things & it will not open. This also happens to be paraben & petrolatum free ( in caae you are wondering about the cheap price)
INR 350 for 12 lip balms of 7 gm each
(The price seems to have increased since I bought them)
I've been using these for well over a year now & time is ripe for a review. Dexe Lip balms are white in colour but go on transparent on the lips. I love the flavours given especially lemon & mint, both of which i have used up entirely. The lip balm moisturises well & stays on my lips for a good 3 hours. It has this annoying habit of leaving an oil slick in my drink when I drink something after applying this. However, this doesn't happen when I use a lipstick on top, especially liquid lipstick. In summers, it suffices as an overnight lip balm but you may want something richer in winters. Once the lip balm reaches the level of the pot holding it, it gets difficult to apply. The cheapskate in me hates to see all that product going to waste. So I scoop it up with my fingers & use as a cuticle butter instead.

Super cute with good flavours.

It works well when used under lipsticks.
Paraben free & petrolatum free.

Hate the oil slick. Ugh!
Overall, it's a pretty decent lip balm. The packaging only adds to the cuteness factor. Go for it.
