I bought this product on Friday. I got the clear one {blue and pink second one to the end shown above} to see if it could help my dry lips.
Pros:
~I love the packaging....it's more like a lipstick case than chapstick.
~Even though I bought clear...I love that you can get it in a wide range of colors. I almost bought a color one as well but thought I'd start with clear to see if it works.
~It's not sticky or thick.
~It gives you a slight glossy lip...so it looks more natural.
~I can see real changes and I've only used it about 4 or 5 times. My lips are getting softer - dryness is going away.
~It doesn't smell.
Cons:
It has baby powder or baby oil taste to it. :( The taste isn't super strong and goes away but it is noticeable.
All in all I would say this stuff is a definite must for you bag this winter. It's pretty cheap as well...$3.99 at Ulta and Maybelline was buy one get one 1/2 off...I think CVS is running this same deal this week!

Blistex Lip Medex heals my dry lips overnight - little blue jar. Then, for maintenance go to the Mac counter and buy the moisturizing lip balm - it is in a lipstick tube, is odourless and colourless - i use it under my lipstick/gloss in the winter.
ReplyDeleteI'm 100% Burt's Bees lip balms... I've been loyal for quite some time!! Blistex and Nivea also have good intense healing ones =)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review, my sisters might like these for school.:D

I'll give that a try! Thanks! Hi! New follower from the Monday Beauties Blog Hop! I hope you'll stop by and follow back! Thanks! :) Through the Eyes of a Tiger
ReplyDeleteI have the same one, it is ok but doesn't last very long! I prefer Burt's Bees!
ReplyDeleteAndrea ~ thanks for the tip! I've never tried anything by Mac.
ReplyDeleteMily ~ I've tried those and I just think I hate that chapstick feel...too thick also any time I buy any Burt's Bees to try ~ Paul steals it for himself...lol
Marie ~ they are super cute!!
TigerEyes ~ thanks for checking out my blog and commenting...of course I'll follow you back =)
Tulips ~ do you mean quantity or lip lasting power? I kinda like that it is there...seeps in and then is gone...I'm not a big fan of thick glosses/lipsticks/chapsticks.
Thank you all for your comments!!
