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 LOVE this product! QUICKLY moisturizes lips. I tend to have very dry flaky lips and this reverses that within a day. My lips have never felt more soft!

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

          I have been looking for a lip balm or salve that I can put on my lips at night when I go to bed, as I tend to wake up with chapped, dry lips in the wintertime. Well, I've found it! Smith's Rosebud salve has seriously improved how my lips feel. It only takes a little bit, and once I put it on, my lips feel smooth and soothed. And when I awake in the morning, my lips still feel smooth and much less chapped. I love everything about this salve. The scent is perfect; just right, without being overly flowery. I even tested it out on my elbows, and it does improve dry cracked skin elsewhere as well! Highly recommend this one.

            I wouldn't go on a ski weekend without it -- I use it for chapped skin and lips, it works great for both.

            I use this lip balm instead of a lipgloss, or under lipstick. It had a nice texture and lovely scent and feel.

                While at work I have very little time for anything, so this is a great way to take care of my chapped lips and completely forget about them for the rest of the day. Use it! It works.

                  I was skeptical about this lip balm....but I was surprised at how effective it is! I'm addicted to the smell...I find myself pulling out the tin to just get a whiff of the rose scent! It leaves the lips soft and supple...with a slight lip-glossy feel. I don't much like the petroleum jelly-type aftertaste though. Apart from that, I found this lip balm to be just perfect! It even cured some of my blemishes and red spots on my face!
