 The claims:

Scented Lip Balm #1 -Protects against the elements and helps relieves chapped or cracked lips.  Enriched with Cotton Seed Oil and contains Octinoxate, a mild sunscreen of SPF 4.

My Experience
  •  Price: $12.00 for 0.5 fl. oz
  • Pros: I love the like mint jelly scent; it's not overpowering. The non-greasy, rich, thick balm brings immediate relief to sore, dry, chapped lips, and protects my lips from drying out and cracking.  This balm won't cause irritations - a great product for people with sensitive skin.  This is a must have for those who spend  a lot of time outdoors bearing the harsh elements.   
  • Cons: A bit pricey, low on the SPF spectrum, and doesn't have a (slanted) applicator.  The balm  has be applied from the squeeze tube with a  finger.
  • Bottom line:  The balm is not mind blowing. It does it's job and nothing more.
  • Grade: 9.2/10

That's pricey! What's the shelf life of the product and how long can you make it last?
