How I See It: Burt’s Bees

Mar 8/10 Under High Park By Noula 

I first noticed Burt’s Bees products on the market a few years ago, but only recently decided to try the products for myself. I initially found the name and the logo a little odd, but I once I actually tried the products I was amazed. So far I’ve used Burt’s Bees Beeswax and Banana Hand Creme, Burt’s Bees Almond Milk Beeswax, Burt’s Bees Naturally Nourishing Milk and Honey Body Lotion, Burt’s Bees Soothingly Sensitive Aloe and Buttermilk Body Lotion, Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm, Burt’s Bees Pomegranate Lip Balm, and Burt’s Bees Peppermint Foot Lotion. I love all of these products. The lotions are rich and creamy without feeling greasy, and the lip balms are fantastic on my dry lips and don’t require constant re-applying. I love that Burt’s Bees uses natural products and that they actually work. The problem with some organic lines is that the products never really live-up to the promises on the label. Burt’s Bees products, on the other hand, feel amazing on my skin and smell delicious. I also love that they provide a wide variety of products, everything from facial cleansers and moisturizers to shampoos and body oils. These products are great for both men and women, and they even have products for babies.

Hand Creams

The two Burt’s Bees hand creams that I’ve tried so far are Burt’s Bees Almond Milk Beeswax Hand Creme and Burt’s Bees Beeswax and Banana Hand Creme. Both of these products contain sweet almond oil and beeswax and both are made from 100% natural ingredients. Both products left my skin feel soft and smooth, although I preferred the scent of the Beeswax and Banana Hand Creme. I’m dying to try Burt’s Bees Shea Butter Hand Repair Creme.

Body Lotions

Both Burt’s Bees Naturally Nourishing Milk & Honey Body Lotion and Burt’s Bees Soothingly Sensitive Aloe & Buttermilk Body Lotion made my skin feel silky and smooth. Both products have a pleasant scent and are almost 100% natural (the Aloe & Buttermilk lotion is made with 99.41% natural ingredients and the Milk & Honey lotion is 98.25% natural). It’s good to know these products were not tested on animals.

Lip Balms

I love Burt’s Bees lip balms because they actually work. Over the years I’ve tried many different types of lip balms and the products by Burt’s Bees are by far among the best. I love the scent of both the Beeswax Lip Balm and the Pomegranate Lip Balm, although my fiance prefers the beeswax lip balm over the pomegranate lip balm.

Foot Lotions

So far I’ve only tried Burt’s Bees Peppermint Foot Lotion but I’m very satisfied with this product. It’s made with 100% natural ingredients and the light peppermint scent is lovely. Sometimes I like to slather it on my feet just before bedtime.

I’m looking forward to trying a couple of their body washes (Burt’s Bees Naturally Nourishing Milk and Shea Butter Body Wash looks especially good) and some of their face cleansers (Burt’s Bees Peach and Willowbark Deep Pore Scrub sounds promising).
