I appreciate the all-naturalness of this, and you certainly won't get sunburned with it -- but it is very thick and white. If I'm hiking or at the beach, I might use this, but for everyday use (like to work, under make-up, etc.) it was just too thick. Very gentle, so might be good for some folks.

Minty, yummy, natural, delicious, cheap. Helps with cold sores amazingly well. The only mint chapstick I'll ever use!

Don't expect a lotion -- this goes on thick and a little greasy, but it'll take care of parched hands and feet, etc. Au natural smell is nice too.

Very emollient -- a long lasting moisturizer. Turned out to be too rich for me, and it's thick so it's a littler harder to spread. I ended up loving it for my hands.

My current favorite among the BB cleansers: not oily, doesn't strip moisture, cleanses nicely, and happily chemical free. A little tingly too, which is a good thing.

This cleaned well enough for me, and I was used to Burt's Bees being a little more moisturizing, so that didn't freak me out. But it just didn't really do much: the poppy seeds didn't offer much in the way of exfoliation, and the lemon base is adequate. Nothing wrong but nothing special.

This was my HG for years until they changed the formula a couple years back -- went from the metal tube to the current incarnation. It still smells lovely, but it just got too oily for me. Just not the same. :-( I moved to the soap bark cleanser and have liked that, but I do miss the glow of my old orange cleanser.

Kind of soapy, scented, a little over-moisturizing -- I even have dry-ish skin, but I had to wash my face after using. Takes off the make-up, but not quite my thing.

Very light, nice foundation; provided smoothing coverage, though my freckles still showed through (which I like). The chemical sunscreen is the only thing that brings this down a notch for me; National Geographic's Green Guide is recommending using physical sunscreens, many of which are in tinted foundation products, so I'm trying some of those instead now... Otherwise, I was quite pleased.

I used this product for daily errands when we lived down in Arizona, and it worked well for me in that regard (though you need something way stronger for anything more than just going in and out of work). Moisturizing enough and not too scented. According to the tests at the Environmental Working Group, though, this provides very little UVA protection (which are the ones that cause wrinkles). Also, I'm trying to move to more physical instead of chemical sunscreens, so this one is out of rotation for me.
