Review on T BROWNE Palmers Butter Formula by Andrew Rourk

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect for horn players and casual players!

A great lip balm that strikes the perfect balance of moisture and weather protection here in Minnesota. More liquid products like Blistex provide good hydration but do not protect. Wax balms like ChapStick offer stronger protection but provide little to no moisture. As a trumpeter, I need moisture to avoid chapped lips (just like normal people!), but unlike ChapStick, I can wipe Palmer off my lips with the back of my hand when it's time to play. Few other lip balms have this balance, and it took a lot of trial and error to find a product that did. I originally found this balance in ChopSaver, but had a reaction to citric acid. I then became a regular user of Aveeno, but they discontinued the lip balm about two years ago. Then I found Palmer's and have been buying it ever since. The balm is colorless and gives the lips minimal shine. I also like that Palmer's comes in an oval tube. If it falls out of your pocket along with the car keys, it won't roll away.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly worn
