i love how gentle Burt’s products are. I cannot LIVE without my beeswax chapsticks when i have a cold.
the first time I was introduced to Burt’s bees I was a teenager, my aunt got a gift set with 4-5 things which went in the trash can eventually as I found the bottles quite unattractive at that time…but a few years later I found out all the products are made of natural ingredients and that’s something everyone looks for I think….
Thanks to Junipers for letting me to have the chance to tried on their hand salve and lemon butter cuticle cream, as before this my exposure to this brand was limited to its beeswax lipbalm which is the featured product from them. Both items I tried is 100% natural ingredients and they have a natural sweet scent and vintage packaging as well.
After clicking into the website surprisingly, Burt’s Bee first product on shelves were CANDLES! From there, the business expand to health and beauty care line. Now they keep on working towards their philosophy which is Earthly Friendly Natural Personal Care for the Greater Good!
My first Burt’s Bees product is their hand cream. The hand cream is probably the best one among all the other brands that I have ever tried, very rich, hydrating and moisturizing. However, I don’t like the funny smell of the hand cream (Not sure with their other skin care products but the hand cream smells very funny) Burt’s Bees products are all natural, which I love the most because you just don’t need to worry about paraben and chemical traces in their products. I know how hazardous and harmful these chemicals are so I always try to avoid them when choosing skin care/ makeup products.
As I know, Burt’s Bees started of with making candles from beeswax and then developed lipbalm and many other products from beeswax. They are known to incorporate various natural ingredients in all their products, suitable for people who is sensitive towards chemical products and it’s environmentally friendly. I swear by Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm Tube is the best Burt’s Bees product. All natural and moisturizes the lip very well. Need not worry to lick your lips and get ‘poisoned’. Hahaha. It can heal chapped lip in just overnight. When I’m half way through the tube, i’ll rush to the nearest store to get another spare one just to make sure i’ll never run out of this holy grail lip care product!
Burt’s Bees are very well known for staying true to their simple idea that what put on the body should be using ingredients made from the best of nature. Their products are simple, natural and responsible which is according to the philosophy which is The Greater Good-good for the planet, good for people and also good for profit.
I think it is excellent examples of having a company which practise what they preach and do care for their customer with products that contains natural ingredients nurture our skin and hair with wholesome nutrients that our body chemistry is familiar with, working in harmony with our bodies.
The use of natural ingredients source from the direct source such as beewax for their most famous Burt’s Bees beewax lipbalm, Willow Bark for Natural Acne care solution meaning their products does not contain Sulfates, Parabens, Phthalates or Petrochemicals.
From the source of ingredient to the use of minimal processing, Burt’s Bees products ensure that will be no human health risk, no animal testing in its development and use (bio) degradable ingredients and the most environmentally sensitive packaging.
I find that there is no synthetic ingredients in their products at all which makes it really appealing and worth the splurge because no one wants toxic to be accumulating in our body for the long run causing health risk. It is even more important for products that we might consume into our body such as lipbalm.
I tried Burts Bees lip balm before. It is quite moisturizing and good for my chapped lips back then! My lips was really sensitive but their lip balm served me well. I believe it is because their products are made of natural ingredients. Natural product is the trend now since people are getting more health conscious. Thanks for giveaway again! 🙂
Burt’s Bees is a brand which practices the concept of ecological sustainability in its philosophy and culture and this is apparent from their range of products, their ingredients, their packaging and their concepts. They actually do what the bees do for our very own ecosystem. Their brand philosophy is called The Greater Good and so watch out, this brand is out to change the world, one little step at a time!
A chance encounter between two people that led to the birth of Burt’s Bees Beeswax candle which became really popular at that time. Then the perfect recipe was formulated and so their first lip balm hits the store and became their bestseller. From there on their vision and high quality products enabled it to go global. It adopted The Greater Good concept which is something of a business, something of a philosophy…a little bit of both. Also, they go through countless research and development to strive for 100% natural on all their products.
A brand that is simple, natural and responsible to the people and the environment. Burt’s Bees always does things a little differently, and that is why we are smitten with it.
Burt’s Bees popularity skyrocketed because of its tin beeswax lip balms.That product especially made the company what it is today.Their main ingredient which is the bees wax is very nourishing and used in a lot of their products.They have evolutionised from making lip balms and candles to making natural quality skin care.I think its amazing that they manage to flourish from such humble beginnings to building an empire of natural products in this 21st century!
With an amazing story of the collaboration between Maine artist and Roxxane Quimby for making candles from the leftover beeswax to the popular lip balm….they entered the personal care with the award winning lemon butter cuticle cream, to so many beauty and skincare products, starting a small time business that made 200$ at a craft fair to owning so many stores across the world making millions having so many happy and loyal customers!! It certainly is commendable.
Burt’s Bees is very well known for its natural ingridients used in all the products with the ideology “What you put on your body should be made from the best the nature has to offer” what more does want? Say no to synthetic!!
It all started in 1984 when the Maine artist and Roxanne Quimby got together and started making candles with the leftover beeswax, making 200$ in their first craft fair to millions today!!
A New York boutique liked the candles and decided to put them up on their shelves ,and they got popular and then more and more were manufactured.
Soon the Iconic and super liked Beeswax Lipbalm was invented, which apparently is the best seller of Burt’s Bees…obviously with growing popularity they moved in to beauty and personal care products, and then came the multiple award winning Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream which again was a hit and marked the beginning of personal care products.
Slowly, Burt’s Bees expanded globally, with so many women wanting to buy Burt’s Bees as it uses all natural ingredients like Almond, chamomile, milk, clary sage, orange, sunflower, willow bark, pomegranate and more…..
like they say at Burt’s Bees, “What you put on your body should be made from the best nature has to offer”.
What amazes me is the zero waste to landfill, they utilize waste by products into biomass based fuels, electricity and even cement. you cant be more environment friendly…that’s why they have the philosophy of Greater Good…Good for you skin, good for the environment and good for the company!!
My first Burt’s Bees product is Naturally Nourishing Milk & Shea Butter Body Wash. This is a fairly gentle, moisturizing body wash that is a very good option for normal to dry skin. This would easily rate a Best Product if it did not contain as much fragrance as it does. In terms of being natural, this is fairly close. Getting much closer would likely result in a body wash that wouldn’t meet consumer expectations for esthetics and performance!
Almost all the skin-care lines in the world prefer to identify themselves as originating from companies established to create elegant, scientific formulations conceived with an in-depth understanding of the skin’s functions and needs. We say almost, because Burt’s Bees makes no such claim. Quite the contrary; this line is about as unglamorous and as unscientific as it gets.
Aside from its humble, amorphous beginning, Burt’s Bees is about natural, earth-friendly skin-care products, as well as overly fragranced products. Its philosophy in this respect is sincere: “To us, the word ‘natural’ means only one thing. It means, ‘harvested from nature.’ And we adhere to that definition like the strictest of school teachers.”
Burt’s Bees Lip Balm is first tried product. This Product is one that I personally rely on all year round. The lip balm itself comes in several different flavours but I chose Honey, as I love Honey scents! It costs £3.69 from boots, which certainly doesn’t break the bank.
I really like the packaging of this lip balm. And the balm itself smells amazing! It is really moisturising, if my lips have cracked during the day, after my face routine irl apply a generous layer of this lip balm to my lips and by the morning I find my lips are almost healed!
For those seeking a line of skin-care products with truly natural ingredients, this is one of the few that steadfastly adheres to its commitment: there is no hypocrisy here. If the ingredient lists are accurate, and there is no reason to assume otherwise, then you will not find preservatives or synthetically derived ingredients of any kind. Just from the all-natural point of view, there will definitely be people who will be excited about these products. Many of the plant extracts and oils used in these products, including orange oil, cinnamon oil, clove oil, lemon oil, eucalyptus oil, pine tar, alcohol, lime oil, and balsam peru, are problematic for skin and present a significant risk of irritation or a sensitizing reaction. Both the intriguing philosophy and inexpensive products are attractive, but it takes more than that to establish reliable products that are good for skin.
Burt’s Bees lip balm. I LOVE IT! Its full of nutrients to keep your smile healthy and spf for protection agains the uvs and sun from drying you out. The natural flavors are wonderful. you can wear it night and day no limit. helps keep your lips moist and healty. Comes in many flavors and all are great. Burt’s Bees comes from use of bees which is a company that relies on bee power to help heal the every day issues. Honey is so good for you in a diet and out. I’d recommend this to everyone. Theres many brands out there tho i feel that Burt’s Bees lip balm and products work for me, may be a bit expensive but i think its worth it for the organic ingredients used in this product.
Choose the 100% natural product, choose Burt’s Bees.
Sometimes I find that ALMOST nothing I do helps with rough hands and cuticles. I use a chalkboard a great part of the day, and I am continually washing and sanitizing my hands. When I need “deep treatment,” I slather on Burt’s Bees “Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream.” It has a luscious scent and a very rich formula, containing sweet almond oil, cocoa seed butter, Vitamin E and sunflower oil.
Thanks for the lovely giveaway and congratulations to all the winners!!
Thank you Juniper! Your are awesome!
