Sofiya, I really like it. It turned my habit of applying lipstick 8+ times a day into Rosebud salve morning, noon and night. And I forget about my lips feeling dry, though they always used to.
There are people on the forum who don't like it. I can't understand why. I still wear lipstick, but when I want to, not because I have to or my lips crack. |

| On occasion I use this salve over my lip balm. It's good when I want a subtle shine for those days I'm without makeup. It takes awhile to get use to opening the tin. The tin isn't really convenient, but the salve is so thick it probably wouldn't come out easily in a squeeze tube. It's also a really cute tin so I let it slide. The rose scent is really strong. You either like it or hate it. The ingredients aren't the best, but the salve goes on smooth and not sticky. It lasts a long time so you don't have to keep reapplying. I don't use it on my hands or face, but I think it could double as a cuticle oil. Overall this is a good product, but not great. |

I love this lipbalm and I keep one in my bag and one in my car so that I don't run out. I also love Decleor lip balm too but I think this one is my favourite because of the shine it gives and the beautiful rose scent.
I buy it on here when I place orders for other things and with my discount, it works out quite reasonable.
I recently purchased some for family members as Christmas gifts so hope they love it as much as I do. |

I have this product. It's okay - would not repurchase ...
It's heavy and overhyped as a product in my opinion. |

| Its great for really dry chapped lips. I am on accutane and Nothing moisturizes my lips like this product and it stays for hours. |

| I'll have to say it works its wonders. But the smell is awful. You might want to try at a local store before purchase. |

This basically feels like Vaseline. Not great for seriously chapped lips. I do like the smell, though.
The tin is terrible to open. I have broken many nails trying to get the tin open. Waste of $$. |

I ordered Rosebud Minted Rose Balm from EDS and like it a lot. It is not thick and smells nice.  |

| I used this before. Its good in the summer since where i live it gets humid. But maybe for dry climates you need more. |

I use the regular Smith Rosebud and I really, really love it. I love the texture better then Egyptian Magic or Vaseline. It can be used on your lips and cuticles.
Another brand that is very popular in Canada is Chanel balm believe it or not. I've purchased it and it does work. The texture is different. |

| The tin is a pain, and I think the product is overrated. It's like scented Vaseline. |

| I also purchased this product a while back. Honestly, I cannot see what the hype is about. There is nothing special about it in my opinion, they just have an excellent marketing manager as far as I can tell. Seems to be petroleum based and sticky. I would not buy it again. |

Yes, it's cool. I use this as a lip balm. Actually it is better than most of lipsticks I have ever used.
But, besides using it as a lipstick, I do not know any other method to use it. So I don't know when could it be used up.....maybe 3-5 years....OMG |

| I got it as a gift and it is ok. As others said the tin is hard to open, it is a bit like vaseline but heavier and stays on better. I would not pay to get it. I prefer products in a tube, no flavoring or much scent and with healing ingredients or other benefits. |

i actually got the Rosebud salve as a free gift from EDS. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!! I have really dry lips 24/7, 365 days a year. I hate wearing lipstick unless its a special occasion. I hate using vaseline as its soooooo boring, but longlasting. i have been using chapstick for a long time now, so this is fantastic, it combines the long lasting effect of vaseline with the nice smells of chapsticks.
Am looking to add more of their range in my cart the next time i do an order! |

| I don't mind it at all - the scent is a bit weird for me but it is good to have on hand for when I need it! |

| I wish they would make it in a tube. It would be more convenient to carry around and apply on the go. |

Then they would have to change the formulation and it wouldn't be the same. It perfect as it is. I use it on my nails, my horse fly bites, my lips, my cuts, my heels... |
