Rosebud Perfume Co. Smith's Rosebud Salve 0.8 oz

 
our price: $5.59
in stock

Is it as good as they claim? There's no doubt. Hard-to-find Rosebud Salve is considered the gold-standard of lip balms -- even jaded Beauty Editors (we're just one example) go crazy for it. Soft, supple, and slightly rose-scented lips result with every use.

I've wanted to try this product for a loooooong time, and finally just saw it again on here, so I ordered it. I know... very exciting tale. Anyway, gorgeous tin; the balm smells great, if you like roses, that is (I do); and then I go to use it. I don't know about you, but I don't like to stick my fingers into my balms unless it's some "balm emergency". I'll use my lips until I can no longer get at it that way. So I did so with this product, very lightly, and ended up with goop EVERYWHERE. This stuff is SOFT and SMOOSHY beyond belief. What a mess. But now I know. APPROACH WITH CAUTION!!! Store this somewhere cool. It's worth the extra measures because it is awesome. There's a reason people have been buying it since 1892! It's perfection in a pretty tin. It's hyper-lightweight, but stays on. It's flavor/scent are very light, but soooooo nice. And chapping? Buh bye... in ONE use. How's that? Granted, it was light chapping, but still...
This is definitely a buy-again. Even with the smoosh-factor. :)

I was so excited to get this because (like a fool) I wanted to use what the stars use. So lame! This product smells nice but tastes like glycerin. I have very dry lips and this did not penetrate or heal. In fact it felt like my lips were getting drier the more I used it! This might be better for someone who does not have sensitive lips. The only reason I gave it two stars instead of one is because I use it on my cuticles (though it does leave my hands oily). I prefer Sally Hansen Lip Butter hands down!

        I searched for this after seeing in Lucky magazine and decided to buy after reading reviews on this site. It is wonderful! Not greasy or overly scented. Really a great reasonable find for lips and even hands.

            Comments about Rosebud Perfume Co. Smith's Rosebud Salve, .8 oz:

            I will always have to have one with me! After my first purchase, I used it mainly for chapped hands and lips. Then I waited for my next drugstore purchase but that is not until 3 months so I bought one at sephora for a dollar more. I am just now trying it out as a blemish treatment but from so, so many reviews on how well it works, i don't think I will be disappointed. The smell is wonderful, who doesn't like the smell of roses? And as a lip balm, it adds a sheen and slight color. This product is my must-have!

              I have always been "blessed" with dry skin and lips that very easily chap. This is definitely the best, most healing product I've found. It works wonders on dry cuticles and hands as well.

                Comments about Rosebud Perfume Co. Smith's Rosebud Salve, .8 oz:

                This stuff is the perfect consistency - not too thick, not too thin, not greasy. It smells faintly floral and one of the things I like most about it is that it actually tints my lips a very natural looking rosy color -- there are very fine shimmers in the balm.

                Smooth and feels great, but smell was too strong for me. Felt like I had a floral candle under my nose the whole time and thought it was a bit nauseating, but otherwise good product.

                    I love the smell and feel of this salve. It's not overpowering either. Since it comes in a tin container, I off it to my friends when I'm using it. I've never been turned down and ppl actually comment on the great fragrance. Will definitely buy again.

                    I tried this because of the great reviews it was getting and it was well worth it! I usually use it 3+ times a day and it smells slightly of rosebud but it isn't an overwhelming smell. It goes on smoothly and isn't sticky at all. It lasts about 1 hour and my lips definitely feel smooth after. It gives a nice shine. I also apply before I go to sleep and when I wake up my lips are nice and smooth. Highly recommended!
