Review on Aloe Vera Vaseline Therapy Lip Balm - Pack of 3, 0.6 oz each by Michael Staton

Revainrating 1 out of 5

I thought I'd buy the American version, but I got the international version with different ingredients.

I bought this product because I thought I had the American version of this product which only has three ingredients (aloe, petroleum jelly and "scent"). I have sensitive skin and react to a lot of different things, and I'm allergic to some of the ingredients in MANY skin/beauty/hair care products. So I kept checking before I bought it. Was excited to try them and did so as soon as they arrived. That part of me is bad, I had to make sure I got what I expected. What I received were three INTERNATIONAL/European versions of this product. Often the European version of a skincare product is actually better, but this is one of those rare instances where that's far from the case. This product has TWELVE ingredients! Twelve against four! That's a big leap. I'm allergic to one of the ingredients and have a reaction to others, so this product isn't worth anything to me. What frustrates me the most is that there is no information anywhere to suggest that you are not getting the US version of this product. The site says the ingredients are: aloe, which isn't true anyway. I now have a product that I will probably throw away which is a shame and I have no idea where to buy the real thing as Revain doesn't list what you buy.
