This is the first time I've ever purchased a Burt's Bees product- and I don't know why!! I've been hearing really great reviews about the products- skincare, etc- but I guess I never guessed that their cosmetics range never blew up on youtube? Well- last week I decided to give this a go- since it was on sale and I just fell in love with the colours (no testers so had to open them up and see for myself! ...that's not good.. I know..)
The first colour that caught my eye was Burts Bee's' Lip Shimmer in CHERRY!
THIS COLOUR IS BEAUTIFUL! I don't know even know how to start- it's so corally and it's not THAT shimmery- but it does leave a nice glossy finish to your lips <3
Pros:
- Not too shimmery- but gives you enough gloss to your lips that it looks (AND IS) hydrated!
- Pretty pigmented for a lip shimmer/balm! Love it
- Pretty affordable for a tinted lip balm, I would say- I think it was around $5-6 at Shoppers Drug Mart?
Cons:
- The packaging for this product wasn't thought out- well the packaging is okay but if you twist out "too much" product, you can't twist it back inside the tube..
Which was bothersome and annoying because I tied to push it back into the tube but.. the heat from my fingers just melted the product and ended up squishing it... not pleasant, I tell you.
- Messy
Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Balm in HIBISCUS
This lip tint might be one of my new favourite lip tints .. ever? Let me give you some pros and cons (if any)
Pros:
- Packaging is bulkier so the product transfers to your lip better (compared to the other one- though I love the colour nonetheless)
- Less shimmery than the shimmer lip balm but it's just like a lip balm but with a sheer, beautiful tint <3
Cons:
- There weren't that many colours to choose from that were appealing to me- I just remember there being maybe 4 others?
I can't think of anything else for cons- I just really love this tint as well <3
