New Lip Products

                 Hiya!

Finally the festive period is upon is and it is socially acceptable for me to listen to as many Chritmas songs as my heart pleases and begin feasting on chocolate everyday. Anyway... it's been a little while since I’ve talked about new beauty products but just the other day I decided to pick up some new lovely things for my lips.

 First off is the Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula with Vitamin E Lip Balm in the original scent. I recently ran out of my favourite medicated chapstick mentioned HERE and decided to try something new and had seen quite a few people using this stuff around school so thought I'd give it a go. It was only £1.89 from Boots which is a complete steal! It’s a super creamy consistently which feels amazing on your lips and is completely sheer so great to use everyday especially in school. Another bonus is it has SPF 15 which is such a great plus especially as I’ve had my lips burnt before and let me tell you it's seriously not fun. All round I’ve been really enjoying this lip balm and advise you to pick it up if you’re on the hunt for a new one.

Next is a product that has been raved about by US beauty bloggers for a while now and its Maybelline’s Baby Lips. They’re pretty much just a lip balm but majority of them are tinted with a sheer wearable colour. The one I picked up is in “Cherry Me” and is a sheer redish colour, great for everyday wear as just a hint of colour. I wouldn’t reach for this if I was after a super moisturising lip bam but if I wanted to wear a little bit of colour on my lips this is great as it doesn’t dry them but, for my anyway it doesn’t add much moisture either.

Finally I was on the hunt for a nice deep red colour for the upcoming festive period and decided on the Kate Moss Matte Collection for Rimmel London in the colour 107. It’s a beautiful rich deep red colour and stays on your lips for so long since it’s matte. It’s also not overly drying considering it is matte. I also like to just blend a little onto my lips and wear it a little more sheered out and not just so dramatic for more everyday wear.

 

Have you tried any of these products?

What lip products have you been loving recently?

Lipcare Products

               Hiya!

So recently my lips have been crazy dry and chapped which is not great when I want to wear lipstick, these are the products that have really saved my lips and the best part is all of them are super affordable!

The first is my Lush Bubblegum sugar lip scrub. This is a product that I use 1-2 times a week but can definitely be used a lot more. It’s basically an exfoliate for your lips that gets rid of all the gross dead skin without stripping your lips of moisture. It’s made with all natural ingredients which is always great, and comes in lots of different flavours.

The next product is Blistex Intensive Moisture, I apply this right before I go to sleep and only then as it is really moisturising. It’s also a thick white cream and stays white once it is applied to the lips so it’s best as an overnight treatment.

Lastly is my Medicated Chapstick, this is also very moisturising but applies clear to the lips. I put this on in the morning before I apply my makeup, then carry it with me if needed again throughout the day.

Both lip moisturisers have a minty smell and almost tingle the lips but not to the extent that it’s uncomfortable. I purchased both from boots and were less than £3 each. All these products together have drastically improved my lips and I urge everyone to check them out especially the Lush lip scrub.

 

Do you have any lip saviours you think I should try out?

Hope you guys enjoyed this post!
