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!

    A fair warning:

    By Kat

    from Washington, D.C.

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

    While this works as promised for keeping lips unchapped, it smells OVERWHELMINGLY of petroleum jelly, with just a tiny hint of something rosy. Not pretty- or dainty-smelling -- and NOT something I'd want to keep in my purse to use on the go, as it smells like you're opening a big jar of Vaseline!

      I use this all winter on myself and my 2 kids. For chapped lips, dry skin, to protect against cold and wind. We all love it. The rose scent is very subtle. Lasts a long time.

        I started using it on my lips and then used it on my pimples just to see what it would do. It seems to calm blemishes but it's great for lips. Very effective and smells nice.

          Been using it for years and haven't found anything
          better. Good moistuizer for your lips and gives
          them a perfect, natural color. Keep it in your purse
          for a quick beauty fix.

            Not only do I use this on my lips, I use it on any dry skin, windburn and for diaper rash on my grandchildren. Before I started using Rosebud Salve, my cuticles always became dry and cracked in the winter. Now I rub Rosebud into my cuticles morning and night and, not only are my cuticles healthy, my fingernails have grown. The price is right and I love its many uses! I wouldn't be without it.
