I am already familiar with cosmetics of the Russian Aloe Planet brand, on body gels and lip balm wrote reviews recently, and about high quality and efficiency of products I know firsthand.
Quite recently Aloe Planet produced men's lip balm with bergamot extract. To test I was lucky its one of the first. More true not to me, and husband: he periodically uses long ago similar means therefore took part in this testing with great pleasure.
Unlike an aloe balm, men's it is executed in the form of a stik that is very convenient during the trips and use outdoors. And a strong half of society prefers not to spend a lot of time for care of the skin, everything does on the run: it is unlikely they would agree to use a brush for putting balm for lips, and especially to climb there fingers:).
Case of black color - everything is very laconic, but at the same time elegantly and purely as a real man, nothing superfluous.
Decent volume - 4.6 grams, the democratic price - only 140 rubles. An expiration date more than impressive - the whole 36 months. A little availability of mineral oil in structure upset at what it goes on the first place: balm is called "Aloe bergamot". But in some means and situations I treat it very indulgently, and if it is men's lip balm.
I will explain why.
Men (at least my husband) do not use balms several times per day. Usually remember them in the winter and is slightly more rare during the autumn and spring period. Lips dried up, began to be shelled, all - needs urgently to be applied on them the protectant. And it that once - and at once everything became as it should be, as on a wave of a magic wand. Mineral oil, besides good moistening, forms on the surface of epidermis a protective barrier which prevents further dehydration and helps skin to be restored quicker. Therefore use of such means in cold season is sometimes very justified.
Especially besides mineral oil at structure there is still a number of components, useful to skin:
- bee and kandelilsky wax - help to hold moisture in epidermis, soften, remove inflammation;
- oil of a castor-bean tree (castor oil) and shea butter - perfectly nourish skin;
- extract of leaves of an aloe Barbados possesses the healing, moistening and antimicrobial action;
- bergamot extract - excellent antiseptics, gives to means a light citrus aroma.
- tocopherol acetate (vitamin E) - antioxidant, protects skin from influence of UV rays.
Balm quite unusual - inside it green color, and outside of white. It is easily applied to skin, well distributed and that is very important for male skin - does not shine).
Gives a natural covering which even by detailed consideration is almost invisible. Does not cause feeling of stickiness or a feeling of a film on the surface of skin. And of course the most important is an action: it can be estimated really on the firm five. My husband often is in business trips, in different corners of the country the climatic features. About +10 is also shone by the sun, and in the same time in other city it is snowing and the cold, penetrating wind blows. Plus frequent flights too adversely influence a condition of skin: the dryness and an obezvozhennost has an effect at once. Balm passed test so to speak "fire, water and copper pipes", perfectly protected lips from adverse external effects, sharp change of temperatures and during long flights. Whether it is necessary to say that now lip balm from Aloe Planet takes a place of honor in a road cosmetics bag of the husband.
