Zoya Remove Plus Nail Polish Remover

Neutrogena Deep Clean Cleanser and Toner

Eucerin Plus Intensive Repair Skin Lotion

Burt’s Bees Honey Lip Balm
I received this specialty lip balm tube out of a Burt’s Bees variety pack. I am especially partial to the regular Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm, and was curious as to how this variation (”Honey”) could match up. In my opinion, it did not.
It has a much different scent …
