The peppermint tingle that people read as the balm working is a mild irritant, and for a minority it is the reason their lips stay dry -- they reapply, the irritation continues, and the cycle sustains itself.

|---|---|---|
| Price | ₹2,950 | ₹999 |
| Fragrance | Fragranced | Peppermint oil, which is a fragrance ingredient and a mild irritant |
| Key actives | Bis-aminopropyl diglycol dimaleate | Beeswax, coconut oil, sunflower oil, vitamin E, peppermint oil |
| Period after opening | 12 months after opening | 24 months after opening |
| Volume | 250 ml | 4 x 4.25 g |

| Colour safe | Yes | not published |

| How it works | The active reconnects broken disulfide bonds in the hair's keratin. That is a genuine chemical repair, not a coating | not published |
| Melting | not published | Softens above about 35 degrees C, so it should not live in a car in an Indian summer |
| Natural claim | not published | 100 percent natural is accurate as an ingredient claim; it says nothing about irritation, and peppermint is natural |
| No SPF | not published | None of the four has any sun protection |
| Occlusive versus humectant | not published | Beeswax is occlusive -- it seals moisture in and adds none. On already-dry lips, seal in water first |
| Peppermint | not published | Provides the tingle, and it is also a known lip irritant for some people. The tingle is not the balm working |
| Sulfate free | Yes | not published |
| Usage | It is a shampoo, not a treatment. The No.3 treatment is the concentrated product | not published |
| What it does not do | Nothing for split ends, which are mechanical damage and can only be cut | not published |
| Who needs it | Chemically treated hair -- bleached, coloured or permed. Virgin hair has few broken bonds to repair | not published |
Every row is a figure one or both products record. A blank is a figure the catalogue does not hold, not a zero.
