Unfortunately I am not convinced about the Ole Henriksen African Red Tea Exfoliating Lip Salvation. It says it is exfoliating, but I could not detect much difference in how soft my lips are after using it. I'd say for an exfoliating product, this one is quite nice as you can actually wear it throughout the day and it adds nice color to the lips. Yet the product does feel a tiny bit gritty on the skin and I found that it does dry out the lips too.

For the last 18 months I've tried all sorts of potions to relieve sore dry lips with skin that puckers then cracks. Nothing gave relief for longer than it took me to lick it off! I'm now using two products, and between them they've turned my pout from petulant to seductive.. I use good old cheap boots no 7 protect and perfect lip cream at night and this Ole Henriksen African Red Tea Exfoliating Lip Salvation, which has real staying power, in the morning. An up side is if you constantly worry your lips together once you've put on lip balm, instead of just getting rid of it, with this product, you're helping it do its job. Worth it!

Ole Henriksen African Red Tea Exfoliating Lip Salvation (11g) is honestly the best lip balm I've ever purchased. It has a slight reddish tint which gives your lips a nice colour and leaves my lips feeling really smooth and soft. The exfoliating beads/grains are only slightly grainy and barely noticeably when you rub your lips together. However, after about an hour you can feel the effects of the grains as I find the hard/dry skin on my lips slowly begins to shed. I really like this balm and think that if you have problems with dry or peeling lips then it's a must have.

I absolutely love it! It gives enough moisture and shine and is wonderfully discreet in its rosy tint. I really enjoy using it! Great stuff!

I bought this lip balm because I fell in love with the smell. I've applied it every morning for a week now and my lips have never been this soft!
