We bought this for our 8-year-old daughter for Christmas. She’s been able to make three different lipbalms so far. She has had a lot of fun playing with the different flavors. As a parent I am not impressed with this toy. The lipbalm base is very hard to clean up afterwards. It’s greasy and doesn’t clean up with dishsoap and leaves a messy residue. Also, the lipbalms are really soft after making them. She put them in the freezer to harden them up, which helped, but when they warmed back up, they were runny again. This happened with all three that she’s made even though she’s had adult supervision making them (so we know they’re being made correctly).

I bought this for my 9 year old Granddaughter recently. She absolutely loved to make this lip balm. It came with little tins to hold the balm in and stickers to decorate the tins. It comes with three flavors (that are also coloring)and easy to follow instructions. After following one recipe, she decided to make her own flavor and turned out some really nice flavors and colors of balm which she shared with her sister.

I think this was a winner!
