"Great choice!" COMMENTS:  I have been searching for something for my chapsticks that gives them the hardness that I enjoy. I usually use cocoa butter but I don’t like the overpowering scent that comes with it. I used this and I love it! It doesn’t have a strong smell but helps bond the chapsticks well. PRODUCT USED IN:   Lip Care
