I've been talking about dry skin remedies a lot lately, but I can't help it...I'm obsessed with trying to cure my dry, cracked hands! One product I keep in my purse at all times is the classic Smith's Rosebud Salve:
This is one of those all-in-one miracle salves that will cure just about anything. I use it mainly on my lips and my knucles.
The salve itself is pink in the tin that goes on clear. It smells of sweet roses, but it is not very strong and it does fade quickly. It is non-sticky, but since it is a balm it is thick and does take a couple minutes to dry down. The look is slightly glossy, but not super shiny. Rosebud Salve is very moisturizing and really does cure dry skin quickly.

I love Rosebud Salve, and at $6 for 0.8oz, you can't beat the price for a salve that cures just about anything. There are more fragrances available, such as Strawberry and Minted Rose, but I prefer the original rose version. I think you can find this at some drugstores but I pick mine up from Sephora. If nothing else, I think this is especially great for travel, since it is not liquid, and it works in a pinch to moisturize lips, hands, and you can even lightly dab it on your face if you suffer from extreme dry skin while in the air. The scent is also subtle enough that it won't bother your fellow travelers. =)
Do you use Rosebud Salve?
i have heard great things of this product and i really want to try it out one day.
ReplyDeletethanks for visiting my blog, now following ;-)
Thanks dear! This is such a great-multi purpose product, I hope you do try it!
DeleteI have been wanting to grab a tin of this for a while. Makeup artist Jordan Liberty swear by this, and uses it for his signature glossy eyelid look. I must be crazy for not buying this right away. :P
ReplyDeleteOoh, I should try that look with this! I'm sure it's great due to the non-sticky factor. Plus it's wallet friendly!
