Figs & Rouge

I received my Figs & Rouge lips face and body balm in a recent Glossy Box. I've never been a fan of the traditional rose scent so wasn't desperate to try as my balm was 'Rambling Rose'
How wrong was I?? I can smell the rose, but not as in the old fashion perfume way. It is fairly sweet but just makes my mouth water each time I smell it.
I have used this mostly as a cuticle balm throughout the day. Although on contact it's a little 'grainy' it melts into the skin and is so moisturising. It also leaves a lovely sheen.
Have since bought the full size in Rambling Rose & also Wild Cherry (smells lovely, almost orangey with a slight aniseed twist) from Boots priced at £4.99.
The balm is 100% organic and I don't think I ever want to be without the cute little tin.

  2. I like rose scents! Unfortunately you've given me something new to buy in my war against cuticles that could be sold on as silica gel haha!
