I had hardly finished using the products from my last haul and Diva Likes sent me this huge Vaadi Herbals haul yet again. I am more into herbal and ayurvedic products these days as they are free of chemicals and won't harm the skin. Vaadi Herbals is a known name in the herbal beauty industry. They have an amazing range of products at pocket-friendly prices. My haul has a product for every single beauty purpose and I am so excited to try them out one by one.

Even if they are not chapped, I need to have them on my lips as it has now become a habit. So today I am going to review Vaadi Herbals Active UV Block Mint Lip Balm for all of you. Read further to know more about it.

My Experiences With Vaadi Herbals Active UV Block Mint Lip Balm:

The lip balm comes in a transparent plastic tub with a black lid. The details about the product are present on a sticker at the base. The packaging is compact and will slip into smallest of pockets and quite sturdy too. The only problem is that it comes in a pot which I find quite unhygienic as dipping fingers all the time you need the lip balm seems dirty. The lip balm appears mint green in the tub but actually it's completely colorless. It has a smooth petroleum jelly like texture. The mint aroma is very refreshing and it disappears within few minutes of application. So it's not going to bother sensitive noses.

It gives a cool peppermint type tingling sensation on the lips which is unique and fresh. I haven't used any lip balm till now which feels cool on the lips. It does not feel heavy or sticky either. It feels you haven't applied anything at all. It softens the lips and stays for almost 3-4 hours. Even if it fades away, lips stay soft until you take a meal. It's completely colorless and does not appear too shiny, so you can apply it beneath lipstick also. Though it does not mention any SPF value, the name says its UV block which is a very big advantage these days as the heat is at its peak.

Pros Of Vaadi Herbals Active UV Block Mint Lip Balm:

• Very affordable.
• Compact and sturdy packaging.
• Stays for a good 3-4 hours.
• Gives a unique cool sensation.
• Non-sticky and non-waxy.
• Does not feel heavy on the lips.
• Has UV protection.
• It works perfectly as a base for lipstick.

Cons Of Vaadi Herbals Active UV Block Mint Lip Balm:

• The tub packaging is quite unhygienic.
• Only active ingredients are mentioned.

Diva Likes Rating:

4/5

Final Note:

I wanted to give full points to this lip balm, but the packaging and ingredients list steals away one mark. Vaadi Herbals Active UV Block Mint Lip Balm is great for lips considering its price. It is colorless and a good base for lipsticks. It's completely lightweight on the lips and moisturizes the lips well. It has an amazing staying power which is quite surprising for a lesser known brand. The unique part is that it gives a cooling sensation once applied giving a refreshing feel. I highly recommend this lip balm to all of you as it can give a good competition to well-known brands.
