Coming to the packaging of Juicy Chemistry Choco Mint Lip Butter, I feel there is room for improvement. It comes in a twist-up packaging, but the brand and product details are wrapped in paper which is torn and worn with daily use, as you can see in the images. I wish they do something about this.

Juicy Chemistry Choco Mint Lip Butter is chocolate brown in color and has a thick butter like texture. The scent is more minty than chocolatey.

I ordered this lip balm along with their hand & foot cream and body butter. And let me tell you, from the first use, I have been enjoying this! Something about it makes me want to take it every 2 hours or so and apply on my lips. It just feels sooo good 😀

Juicy Chemistry Choco Mint Lip Butter is made up of 100% natural ingredients – oils and butters – and there are no other chemicals or preservatives. It moisturizes and nourishes lips well. The butter lasts on the lips for around 3-4 hours and survives small drinks and water which I think is a great thing, as many lip balms hardly last on my dry lips for an hour or so 🙁

Juicy Chemistry Choco Mint Lip Butter adds a subtle shine to the lips due to the presence of oils. But it will fade away in a while making lips look natural. I like to apply a tinted lip balm on top of it. Am currently using the organic lip tint from Island Kiss.

Coming to the scent, I was kinda disappointed since I had expected a chocolatey scent. That was the primary reason I bought this lip butter. But the minty scent is more prominent. The fresh minty scent lingers for a long time actually, until you drink or eat something.

Juicy Chemistry Choco Mint Lip Butter is a non-tinted, good, daily use lip butter to prevent dry and chapped lips and keep the lips in good condition. But if you already have chapped lips, this doesn’t do much to repair them. So while it can prevent chapped lips with daily use, I feel it cannot heal already chapped lips.

The ingredients list is simply great. Avocado oil as we all know is an excellent moisturizer as its full of essential fatty acids. Along with sweet almond oil, vitamin E, shea butter and cocoa powder, this is one of the best 100% natural lip balms in the market.

Does it satisfy all its claims?

Yes, partially. I didn’t find any effect on healing chapped lips though. Its not nourishing enough for that.

What I like?

* 100% natural, organic ingredients and free from chemicals.
* No parabens, preservatives, petroleum products, artificial perfumes, alcohol.
* Thick butter like texture which moisturizes and nourishes lips.
* Lasts for around 3-4 hours and survives small drinks and water.
* Doesn’t add extra shine or gloss to lips.
* Fresh minty scent which lasts for a long time.
* Good for dry lips as daily use. Prevents chapped lips and keeps the lips nourished and healthy.

What I don’t like?

Not deep nourishing to heal chapped lips.

Would I recommend?

Yes.

Would I repurchase?

No. I might try their Rose variant next though 😀

Value for money?

Its pricey for a lip balm. But considering its made up of 100% natural, organic ingredients, I think its worth it.

IBeautySpy Rating: 4.5/5

Overall, Juicy Chemistry Choco Mint Lip Butter is a good, daily wear lip balm for dry lips. I like the fact that it is made up of 100% natural ingredients. I only wish that it was more deep nourishing, containing shea butter in more proportion, to heal chapped and cracked lips also. Then it would be the perfect lip balm for me! But, still, I would recommend you to try this atleast once and feel the naturalness (forgive me for the word! ????) on your lips, after using all our drugstore lip balms over the years!
