Excellent (very beneficial ingredients, proven research)
Good (mostly beneficial ingredients, not extensive research available or just not quite outstanding properties)
OK (mostly thickeners, emulsifiers, mild preservatives, pH adjusters, all that is necessary formulation wise, but not a skincare per se)
Bad (anything that shouldn't be in skincare, irritants and fragrance)
As a consumer I did like this product. The scent and taste are very mild (barely there even). The moisturizing strength is light to medium. This runs along the classic chapstick type of texture. Personally, I prefer very oily rich lip balms. Usually the ones, that have plant oil as a first ingredient and beeswax as a second, since beeswax makes lip balms harder. So this lip balm was not moisturizing enough for me. But this is an excellent choice, if you do not need anything heavy. I wish they included a bit more antioxidants here (but it happens very rarely in case of lip balm formulations, so it's not that important).

Discussion:
This is an excellent lip balm for a very affordable price (~2$ at most health food stores or online). Usually organic/natural brands can't resist adding essential oils to their lip balms, but this is a fortunate exception. Mostly is has just a beeswax mixed with plant oils and butters. Natural food grade flavour used in this composition is not posing any problem. This formulation even employs natural preservative (vitamin E), instead of synthetic ones. This lip balm will fit the bill for those of you seeking out highly natural and inexpensive option on the market.As a consumer I did like this product.

Highly recommend. Excellent formulation. Not overly flavoured or fragranced. Medium moisturizing strength.5 out of 5.
