I say No to "Yes To Carrots"


One of the great things about recovering from surgery is I have to go to the drugstore a lot to buy new gauze and such, and I have been making it a point to always pick up some new lip junk in hopes of finding the next great drugstore buy. I have some hits, I have more misses and I have a lot of material to blog about.
Yes to Carrots is a line of Paraben Free products. (I will take this time to note that I am almost obsessed with the Yes to Carrots C-Through the Dry Spell Deliciously Rich Body Butter, I use it daily)
Anyway, I picked up the C Me Smile Lip Butter. It comes in a traditional "chapstick" like container, it is all natural and 95% organic. I was very excited to use it, and well as it goes I was disappointed. I can't get over the smell and taste. It smells nothing like carrot, has an oily sort of smell and whenever I put it on I have a craving for spring rolls because the taste on my lips is that of the spring rolls from my favorite Thai restaurant. I like spring rolls in my belly and not on my lips. I just can't get over it. And it didn't moisturize my lips any better than anything else I have laying around. I don't think I will even continue to use the tube. The Yes to Carrots Lip Butter made me frown.
