Burt's Bees

[Tck13]

Has anyone tried any of this stuff? (I did a search but couldn't read the topics)

I never knew it but they have shaving and moisturizing creams for men. No Petrolatum.

they were very good when they were an independent start up - now they are owned by CLOROX - the bleach folks - they lost their edge

I disagree - the product formulations haven't changed much

I use several of the products and they are all pretty fantastic (I have sensitive skin)

Not a fan.

Better brands elsewhere.

Overall it's the best drug store brand out there. I do miss the metal tubes and glass jars.

The buttermilk baby lotion works well and smells pretty good.

How does being owner by Clorox make them automatically lose their edge?

Speaking of bees, is that mysterious bee shortage still happening?

they seem to have drastically slowed the introduction of new products, and removed some highlights from there small entrepreneurial days - I would clarify by saying as an independent small nibble company they had an edge that responded to there loyal and expanding following - it seems that that is no longer the case with the clorox ownership - thats what I mean by edge - all all a good stable brand but not the risk taking independent they use to be

Bees have rebounded, apparently. Empirical evidence confirms this. They is everywurrr.
