I received this item in Decembers The Vegan Kind box and wanted to share it with you. Yaoh are a UK based vegan brand selling a range of Hemp Oil products including this lip balm. They come in 5 flavours: Spearmint, Strawberries and Cream, Mango and Kiwi, Coconut, and Blueberry. As you can see I got Strawberries and Cream which I wouldn't have chosen myself to be honest but it's not as sweet as it sounds and has quite a pleasant scent.
I've had a bit of a cold the past week and so my lips have been ridiculously dry and cracked but I've been using this and it's actually helped quite a lot to keep my lips hydrated. I tend to avoid lip balms, especially petroleum based ones (I avoid Vaseline like the plague!) as I don't think it's very healthy to be using a by-product of oil on your lips. Also you can get addicted to using it as your lips rely on the balm for moisture instead of producing their own - I'm not sure if this is a legit fact but sounds about right to me! You can find the ingredients on their website
here which all looks pretty good. At £2.75 I would happily repurchase, I think I'd like to try the Mango and Kiwi flavour!
We also got marshmallows in our TVK2 box which is so exciting!! I haven't tried them yet but I'm really looking forward to it. This month TVK are donating 10p from every box to
Greyhound Gap which is a charity which rehome greyhounds and lurchers who find themselves in a 'put to sleep' situation in UK pounds. You can see my review of the first box
