Pros: I like the smooth texture and licorice scent. I also liked that it's organic!
Cons: I don't like that it contains fish oil. I's too light, which made it come off easily.

Pros: My lips felt moisturized, soft, supple, renewed and healthier. A very light seal is created on the lips without the messiness or stickiness that can occur with other lip balms.
Cons: None
—Dhani T., International

Pros: The combination of coconut and shea butters provided instant relief for my dry lips, even on a windy day. Brew kept my lips soft and smooth. It contained star anise, which gave it a strong scent of black licorice. I happen to love black licorice, but I know I'm in the minority on that one.
Cons: I usually prefer my lip products to do double-duty, providing color and moisture. Brew is strictly a balm, with not a hint of gloss or color. Great for those who want multiple products, just not my cup of tea.
—Julie G., Interactive Development

Bottom Line: Skincando's Brew lip balm offers parched lips relief, but it's very light so reapplying is necessary.

    1. Too fishy and too expensive. Try Buddha Balm. Their stuff is affordable and amazing.
