Burt's Bees
I love their stuff <3
Anyone else? What are your favorite products?
I like the lip shimmers (in champange), Rosewater & Glycerin Toner, Hand Salve (which smells so friggen herby, like rosemary, it's really strong scented and super greasy), and Lemon butter cuticle cream.
Pisses me off that I'll have to order it online now...

Re: Burt's Bees
I LOVE their Attar of Rose serum. I put it under my eyes and it hydrates nicely. Not greasy at all.
After reading reviews on makeupalley I was looking for it over here, and found it was like £25! I finally got it on ebay from the US for the equivalent of about £5. And I've had it well over a year now and I'm only halfway through it.
I'd like to try the Lip Shimmers definitely. And everything else. Especially that Almond Milk hand cream

Re: Burt's Bees
i loooove their lemon butter cuticle cream...and i also really like their honey lip balm. they must have changed the formula or something because the first one i bought had a really grainy texture and the product itself looked "cakey." it moisturized pretty well, tho. anyway, i bought a new tube and the texture on this one is really nice - it's really smooth, just like a normal lip balm.

Re: Burt's Bees
I like the lip shimmer in Nutmeg...it's a great light bronze color that's perfect for summer. I also like the replenishing lip balm with pomegranate oil. It doesn't feel too waxy or thick on my lips. I like to use this before applying lipstick or lipgloss. I'm also a sucker for a lip balm that smells/tastes good.
I also like my Alba brand lip balm in Passion Fruit Nectar, but I find that it's a little thicker so I use it at night or when I'm not wearing lip color.

Re: Burt's Bees
Ohhh...the lemon butter cuticle cream is the best. As wall as the lip balms.
Do you really have to order it online? I still grab Burt Bee's items from health food stores.

Re: Burt's Bees
I love Apricot Baby Oil, Baby Bee Buttermilk Lotion. I have Toffee Champagne, and Raisin lip shimmers. But I don't really use them.
I really dislike, Honey Lip Balm, it dried my lips.

Re: Burt's Bees
Rhubarb and Merlot lip shimmers and Rosewater & Glycerin toner.
I really didn't like their tinted moisturizer though (very clumpy, cakey and greasy)

Re: Burt's Bees
Dr. Burt's Res-Q Ointment. That stuff is wonderful for cuts and burns. Smells herby and mediciny, but I like the smell.
Radiance Lip Shimmer. That stuff is amazing. I own some other lip shimmers, which look nice, but this one I can layer with anything, or wear by itself.
Eggplant lipstick. This is DC (/cry) but it's absolutely wonderful, and one of the few mauves that have looked right on me.
Pearl and Heather e/s were nice, too, but I never bought a full size of them, because I have combo skin, and was afraid they would melt. Definitely recommend a try to people who can wear creamier e/s.

Re: Burt's Bees
I love the lip shimmers! I'm so glad I discovered these! I have Rhubarb, Watermelon, Merlot, Papaya. Pretty colors. I also like the honey lip balm. THis works very well under lipstick. This balm lasts longer than most others. I wear it at nite, and wake up to soft lips!
I'd love to try more products from them.

Re: Burt's Bees
I love their soap, GARDEN TOMATO. So creamy, silky & removes makeup in a flash without burning your eyes.

Re: Burt's Bees
I just got one of those mini-kit things with a bunch of product samples in it and it's awesome-it has a honey lipbalm, hand salve, lemon cuticle butter, almond milk hand cream, banana hand cream, peppermint foot lotion, aloe buttermilk body lotion and honey buttermilk body lotion samples!
I LOVE the aloe buttermilk body lotion the best-I even used it right after shaving (everything else always burns) and it didn't burn at all! Plus it smells delicious and today my skin is super soft!
Burt's bees is looooove!

Re: Burt's Bees
The balm is the only stuff that works for me in the winter. I love the Hand Salve and the Lemon Cuticle cream too. I haven't used much else of theirs. I might look into it now.

Re: Burt's Bees
My favourite is the Baby Bee Buttermilk Lotion. My arms tend to get super red for some reason, but when I put this on it, it tones down my skin to its proper skin tone. NO idea how it does it, but it makes me soo happy, because when my arms are super red, im really self conscious about em and just cover them up most of the time.

Yes! This stuff is awesome! I use it as a cuticle cream and sometimes as a lipbalm. It smells so great too, like lemons.

Re: Burt's Bees
I only love their orignal lip balm - I keep coming back to it! I've tried the Almond Milk hand cream before, gorgeous smell ... but it was a bit hard to work with and a bit greasy. :/
Also, I've tried the lip shimmers in "Raisin" ugh, not a favourite at all.

Re: Burt's Bees
I only used their Rosewater toner; everything either dried me out, give me a rash or just wasn't effective enough.

Re: Burt's Bees
my bf loves hand salve, i think its really greasy though. i prefer the hand repair in the purple tube....smells TERRIBLE but it doesnt make your hands shiny, greasy, slippery, but it also doesnt just all get absorbed so 5 seconds later you feel like you need more. you kinda feel a barrier around your hands protecting them from the elements. he also likes the lip balms, except for the fact that the delicious smelling pomegranate kind turns your lips pink. he didnt appreciate that very much haha. i like the orange face wash a lot. what exactly does the res q ointment do???

I swear by this product as well! I also found the review on MUA and searched frantically for it!
I couldn't find it in any store, so I was forced with the issue on where to buy it online. Then one day, while walking down a Burt's Bee's aisle in the HUUUUGE Whole Foods at Columbus Circle in NYC, I found it!
This is a GREAT product to fill in under eye lines and to prevent eyelids and under eyes from drying out! I highly recommend it!

Re: Burt's Bees
i agree with a commenter above. i love the original burt's bee's but the honey one is difficult one. i always have at least 2 tube's of the original at all times. one for home and one for the go!
i also like the lemon butter cuticle cream stuff. i still have a whole stash of their stuff in a drawer to try out from 3 kits, haha.
