Questions & Answers for TokyoMilk Dark Femme Fatale Collection Lip Elixirs

Question
For sensitive skin?
More often than not, my lip area tends to get red and dry after using a new lip product. Has anyone had any allergic reactions? I really want to try salted caramel.

Hi! My lips are really sensitive as well, and extremely dry (they are constantly splitting open which is horrible). I have not had any adverse reactions to this whatsoever, in fact I find that it's soothing on my lips. I have the Salted Caramel and the scent is absolutely amazing...there is a slight taste to it but it's no overpowering at all. I would definitely try it if I were you. Maybe to a small test patch on a weekend when you don't have anything going on in case you do have a reaction, but as I said, I'm sensitive to products too and I haven't had any issues. Hope this helps!! :)

I have sensitive skin and was fine, but check the components. Bee balm is usually pretty safe, but the jasemine (and other scent components) could be a problem.

I think you will be fine. I have very sensitive skin and lips and was not bothered at all! I usually have the same problem, but Rosebud and TokyoMilk Dark don't seem to bother me. Good Luck! : )

This is a great product. I have sensitive skin, and I suffer my dry lips many times due to being a diabetic, but this lip balm is wonderful. I actually bought the #36 Salted Caramel. It is a yummy scent, sweet cream, vanilla, caramel. The scent is stronger in the tin than it will be on your lips. The balm itself is soft, not hard. The tin is a good size and it lasts for me, so the price is reasonable especially since it is a good quality. It is gentle and has really healed my lips.

Question
Did you try Absinthe No. 84?
If so, could you please describe it and let me know if you liked it?

I didn't like La Vie En Rose, but I LOVE the Clove Cigarette. Someone described the Clove Cigarette as similar to the smell of chai tea. I would agree with that. It's great!

Absinthe is weird and pungent, hard to really explain except very herbal, but like nothing I have ever smelled before...I don't mind it, but my husband won't come near me when I have it on.

I tried Absinthe, and it's just like absinthe. If you like that sort of smell (really licorice-y, absinthe smell) then you'll like this. If you don't, you won't!

Cherry Bourbon - Smells warm and delicious. It kind of reminds me of Christmas. Tastes good too.

Clove Cigarette - Smells very strongly of cloves. I love the scent, but I think this one tastes a little bit perfume-y.

I tried the La Vie En Rose and Salted Caramel. The La Vie is kind of like what I imagine a dressing room in vintage Hollywood would smell like. It's got a powdery note with vanilla undertones and some sort of flowery rose note in there as well. I also get a hint of orange sometimes.
The salted caramel reminds me of a Werther's candy - heavy notes of burnt sugar and syrupy toffee-sweetness (but not too cloying). It smells overpoweringly strong in the tin, but once it's on your lips it's more subtle (and less salty, I think). It actually kind of tastes a little bit caramelly, maybe it's just the strong scent fooling my taste buds. I like it a lot, but then again, I love Werther's.

i got this in the cocoa noir and will be trying the others. the scent of this product is far more sophisticated than any other lip balm i have used. there is no artificial quality at all but these seem like fragrance for the lips instead of flavored product. the cocoa noir is definitely delicious smelling but not overtly foody. i can get bored by fragrance quickly but this is complex enough to be exciting every time i put it on. it gives me an immediate feeling of luxurious well being and calm.

There is a bit of an acidic undertone to all the perfume products. Each scent, while a long list, has one dominant scent. The line doesn't have as much blend as others, but if you like the strong notes listed and want to smell like those, you're in luck.

Scrangie (the beauty blogger) did a comprehensive review of these balms, including very detailed descriptions of the scents. You can google her name (scrangie) and the product and you should come up with her review. I got the clove cigarette and to me it smelled spicy, just like cloves, with something a touch sweet and something a touch medicinal that reminded me of the smell of the original chapstick in the black wrapper.

I listed the scent descriptions in my review but I'll give them to you as thorough as I can. La Vie En Rose is a light, girly scent, very nice for a lip balm. It's not your typical fruit flavor that you find in everything else. It smells like roses with a hint of cherry if you look for it. Salted caramel is a very strong artificial caramel fragrance. It's more overpowering than pleasant. I really don't recommend this one unless you don't mind the heavy fragrance right under your nose. It's not a dessert-type caramel, if that's the kind of candy scent you're looking for. I haven't tried Clove Cigarette yet.

Question
Bee balm?
I was wondering, if this contains bee balm, is this similar if not the same as bees wax? Because I cannot use products with bees wax in it...

I just bought this and I am absolutely in love with it. The ingredients listed as follows: petrolatum, microcrystal line wax, flavor, canola oil, aloe vera, leaf extract, vitamin E, vitamin E acetate, stevia rebaudiana, Green tea leaf extract, safflower seed oil, jasminum flower extract, bee balm extract

The bee balm extract is from the Monarda flower. Common names for the Monarda plant are bee balm, bergamot, and horsemint. So, to answer your question the ingredients are from plants/flowers, not bees. Hope this helps.

Bee balm is a plant. It has nothing to do with bees, except that it attracts bees to itself. That's not to say that you can't be allergic to bee balm independently, as well as being allergic to bees (or beeswax), but bee balm does not have any bee product in it.

Bee Balm is actually a plant, and is not made by bees at all. :) Beeswax is made by bees. I *think* you should be okay. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bee_balm

Bee Balm is a name for an herb, no relation to bees (except that they might feed on the pollen). Beeswax is the actual wax from a beehive, which exists in several commercial forms, depending on how "clean" it is of bee pollen and the other components of a beehive. (Other waxes include soy wax, carnuba wax (another plant), and petroleum-based wax.)

Bee Balm is an herb/plant/flower. It is not the same as beeswax, so you should be able to use this. I would double-check to make sure there's no beeswax, though. Just to be sure.

Hi :)
This product is not really available in most Sephora stores. I am not sure why but I think it is because this is a fairly new product being carried at Sephora. I don't know what stores carry this, but I THINK they may be carried at the flagship stores and really big Sephora stores. As for availability online, this is currently available and since it is not being discontinued it will be in stock and available for purchase.

Thank you :)

I got this in the Salted Caramel. It is addicting and very moisturizing. I use it at night or on top of my lipstick before going out into the cold weather. Love it! A bit sticky on the fingers but then again so is Salted Caramel!
