This review is for the Burt's Essential Burt's Bees Kit, 5 Essential Prodcuts, Deep Cleansing Cream, Hand Salve, Body Lotion, Foot Cream & Lip Balm, Travel Size, (ASIN: B004EDWMBO). I have uses every product in this kit, and I like all of them. In general, I have had great luck with Burt's Bees products, and I like that they are natural. I am going to review each item in the kit individually:Body Lotion with Milk & Honey:This is one of my favorite body lotions. I find that it has good, medium, consistency. It absorbs wells, lasts, and does not have a greasy residue. The smell is mild and very nice.Hand Salve:This is the first time I have ever used a hand salve, and I will be honest in saying that I don't know when you would use it compared to a hand lotion. It seems to do a good job, but it is oily and very slippery.Soap Bark & Chamomile Deep Cleansing Cream:This is very nice as a facial cleansing cream. It's mild, has a nice scent, and seems to be fine with sensitive skin.Coconut Foot Cream:This stuff is very nice. It does a great job. It has a mile, very pleasant, smell. It is a bit slippery, so you will definitely want to have socks on after you apply it.Beeswax Lip Balm with Vitamin E & Peppermint:This is lip balm is a part of my group of favorite lip balms. You definitely smell the peppermint, although it is not overpowering. And it feels slightly cool on the lips. It does a very good job.The moisterizes are fantastic. They are thick and my skin just absorbs the products right now. Doesn't leave any leftover film. The hand creams are very good too. My hands ate extremely dry. The creams are really helping to combat the soreness in my fingers. The cuticle cream works well too. I just need to use daily and not "once in a while". The lip moisturizer really keeps lips soft. Great products!Originally requested return for this one because kid on hand cream was completely off and other items stick into the cream or jostled out and the entire gift packing was a mess. I don’t understand how the person pulling this item for shipment didn’t notice as it was all over the netting of the package. We were to return it but in the meantime my husband had thrown it away as it was such a mess. Now we are having to pay for this and the replacement. The replacement package had a loose hand cream lid but not opened. I highly do not recommend this.You don't need pricey cosmetics. Burt's Bees had always been a great product. The mask is amazing. Last night I used the scrub and then the mask before bed. NO dry lips in the morning just nice and soft. I will use the scrub a few times a week in the morning and then apply lipstick. I don't believe the directions state how often to apply either of them. Go for it! It's a great product.This was a gift and it was well received. I am familiar with the quality of the product and actually bought 5 of these for gifts.I have been using this every other day for a couple weeks and so far so good! I have sensitive skin and things I have been using are causing flare ups, but this hasn't caused any problems. I think it does a good job moisturizing and overall I'm pleased!A gorgeous little gift set, but I kept it for myself. The price was not out of the way for such a variety of Burt’s Bees products!Foot cream: I have dry feet and it really helps to have smooth feet ? Body lotion: all I have to say is ??its awesome ?Chapstick: 10 out of 10 ? love it**DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT FROM THIS SELLER**I purchased this product for my sister for Christmas and it is really frustrating that when I received it the box was open with some of the bits open and taken out from within. I am completely disappointed with the state I have received this and I wouldn't bother purchasing if you want a presentable gift for someone special.Came tapped up, with the lip balm missing!This was for a Christmas present and now I can’t gift it!It arrived quickly enough. It contained exactly what it said it would contain. The price was what they said the price would be. Yes, the containers are very small, but that’s fair enough for the price. But to me, the box looked distinctly shabby. It looked as if it had been opened. It had certainly been bashed about a bit and wasn’t new looking as you would expect. Unfortunately I received this the day before I needed it as a gift, otherwise it would have gone back. DiscapointingDon't recommend buying this product. The product itself is good but the quantity is not the one on the tubes. It says 25g but you'll get only half of the quantity so not a good ideea to buy it as a present.I was going to leave a negative review because I felt slightly cheated when the product came. Looks bigger in photos. It was a gift and my mum loves it but for the price and the size of the contents I wasn’t impressed.Then I smelt and used the cleansing cream of soap bark and chamomile and I’m a convert. It smells amazing and it a very good cleanser.
