[Review] Jack Black Lip Balm in Natural Mint & Shea Butter


Size: 7g (.25 oz)
Price: C$7.50 + tax

Availability
This product can be purchased at Sephora (Canada).

Ingredients
 
Container/Packaging
Since this product is intended for men, it appears to be very "male-intended-product-like". It comes in a navy blue tube with a black twist-top cap. The applicator is turned slightly around from the tube (which seems to ease the application).

Product
*PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PRODUCT THAT I'M REVIEWING IS NOT JACK BLACK INTENSE THERAPY LIP BALM SPF25 BUT JACK BLACK LIP BALM IN NATURAL MINT & SHEA BUTTER*
This product, just like Jack Black Lip Balm in Lemon & Chamomile (to see the review for Lemon & Chamomile, please click here), comes in a gel texture (thicker constancy compared to lip gloss) which doesn't give a glossy finish but a semi-matte-looking texture just like other lip balms.

While Jack Black claims that mint "freshens breath" and Shea butter "conditions and moisturizes the lips, keeping them soft and supple", there is definitely a noticeable, minty, cooling effect. The effect fades away after few minutes but keeps the lips conditioned and moisturized.

Scent
It contains a cooling minty scent which may be irritating for some. 

Would I Recommend This Product? 
As a Jack Black lip balm lover who, even before finishing the first Jack Black lip balm, purchased six of their lip balms, it is truly the best lip balm available in the market. I previously expressed my anger towards this product after first couple of experiences and impressions, but it was my misunderstanding. I totally recommend this product.
