I'm using the Pumpkin Salve. I put some on before I went to bed last night and my lips were nice and soft in the morning. I really do have to apply several layers though before I feel like I have enough on. Maybe a thicker or softer consistency would help ?

I am loving the salves. They keep my lips soft a supple even after it soaks in. Haven't tested one against the other so I can't compare the 2. But I love the both.

I really like the pumpkin salve for lips, I applied it last night before bed, and my lips were really soft this morning. I haven't tried the carrot one enough to say either way, but I like it so far.

I've used the Carrot and Pumpkin salve on my cuticles. Very nice. I will like it even better when/if it comes in a tube.

I used the Carrot and Pumpkin salve and put a bit of your lip balm over it and I woke up in the morning and my lips were still soft and silky :D

The salve is good. It's too early to report on whether it helps my cold sores or not.

I like the feel of it on my lips and cuticles, it's just a bit of a pain to get it out of the pod. I just crumble off a piece and heat it between my fingers, as swiping the finger doesn't pick up enough. If it does come back in a tube, that would be perfect.

it is a bit hard in the pod, a tube would be awesome. i actually LIKE that it sinks in quickly. my lips are kinda dry, and i need something on them almost all day, but if i try a regular balm, and then a lippie, it can be too messy/dilutes the color/lippie doesnt "stick", etc. this moisturizes w/o those problems!

I am using the salves on my cuticles. It does help. I would prefer it in a tube. For lips I much prefer the lip balms. I just got the Southern Praline and really like it.

i use the pumpkin on my lips and the pumpkin/carrot on my cuticles. I love both, but for lips, i'd rather it in a tube. works great on cuticles- mine arrived right after my cuticles really split badly to the point of peeling/bleeding from winter dry hands. They're almost completely healed and look great
