| Vaseline Lip Therapy |
So, for most of my life, I have been relying on Vaseline to repair my cracked, chapped lips and always thought how weird people had to buy a smaller container of vaseline.
A few days ago, I went to a store, and saw that the smaller vaseline containers are called "Lip Therapy" and they claimed they would make your lips rosy.

Impressions
- very thick
- a little goes a long way
- nice smell
- pigment did not make my lips "rosy" looking
- much more expensive than your typical Vaseline
- not hygienic, need to apply with finger and dipping finger into product many times
When I first dipped my finger in the small container (thinking it was a red tinted vaseline) I was surprised as how much thicker it really was. It felt like mixing a container of dry lip gloss into vaseline. When I applied it to my lips, I was surprised there was no typical scent of Vaseline, it had sort of a rosy smell to it (but the smell wasn't very strong).
Lip Therapy:
When I applied this to a crack on my lip, I could feel it immediately working and the crack healed. What better time to test a lip therapy product than when you have a painfully bleeding 2 day old crack on your lip? (sorry for being so graphical) I was very surprised and impressed with the results.However, in terms of tint, this did not do a good job... aside from looking
Verdict:
So is it worth it? I could say YES! despite it's priciness of ¥450 (compared to a Vaseline that is 100 times it size for only a fraction of the price), it does wonders to your lips. After applying this (only once) my lips were immediately replenished and the results were long lasting. Not only has it healed my crack but it also smoothed out my lips and this feeling lasted for almost 6 hours!Score: 9.8/10 (because it did not give my lips a rosy tint)
