Rooted Beauty

I have been wanting to try products from this company for just about forever and over Black Friday they had a great sale that I just couldn't pass up! This company does so many good things too (aside from making really awesome products). A portion of each item sold helps empower a woman with a specific goal or project through the Woman2Woman project. The Woman2Woman project aims to help a woman escape from extreme poverty and/or trafficking. Each item benefits a different woman and Rooted Beauty has six women (they sell six items) at a time they're sponsoring.

Company: Rooted Beauty

Flavors: Razz Lime, Orange Vanilla, and Passion Fruit. The Razz Lime smells lightly of tart raspberry and tangy, sour lime. The Orange Vanilla smells of bright orange and creamy vanilla. The orange is definitely stronger than the vanilla. The Passion Fruit is very lightly scented, but does smell of tropical passion fruit. The Razz Lime and Passion Fruit balms would be great for someone who doesn't like super strong scents in their balms.

Wear: These balms feel firmer than most balms I use, but they melt right on contact with my lips. Once these balms touch my lips they melt and have a super dreamy texture. These sink in and kind of sit on my lips at the same time. But they leave a great amount of product on my lips, it doesn't feel too thin or too thick, just the right amount of product.

Packaging: One of the things that really drew me to these balms was their packaging! They come in push up/squeeze tubes which are really cool. To get more product out you just squeeze the bottom until you get the amount you want out of the tube. The tubes are also compostable!

Price: ~$5 per tube which is a little steep for me, but this company does some pretty good things and I got a deal on them during Black Friday.

Overall
Pros: Flavors, Wear, Packaging, Price
Cons:

Rating: 4 out of 5 twists. These balms were pretty great! I really love the consistency of them, but some of the scents were a little too light for my liking. Not enough for me to not recommend these to you, but I just wanted to point that out. If these interest you at all, definitely check them out! Stay tuned for a future review on their other face products, you won't want to miss it!
