Peer review:

Right amount of scent, a little oily.

Very smooth, a little less scent will be good.

I like how smooth this is.

It would be better if it was harder, nice scent.

smooth and soothing, a little more beeswax needed.

 

Reflection:

I am again very pleased with my lip balm this time. Compared to last time, this one is more moisturizing and smooth, but a little soft, therefore I will retain the material list and procedure and add a little more beeswax, less oil and change the scent.
