I'm a complete sucker for anything limited addition or any new lip balms. I have a huge amount of lip balms from different brands. I think it's so important to keep them looking nice and feeling healthy. I had heard about this new Limited Addition Pink Bubbly Vaseline but couldn't find it in any of the shops near me. A couple of weeks ago I spotted one lonely one in my Superdrug and picked it straight up and took it too the till. All the prices where below....or so I thought. When I'd paid for it, I checked my receipt after and saw it was £3.49. I probably sound really stingey but considering the others are all under £2.00, I thought this was a bit much. And strike! to Superdrug for not putting the correct pricing labels under their products. I went back in the other day, and they're still not in the right place.
The actual lip balm itself is nice. It's very conditioning and lasts a while on my lips. Makes them really smooth and soft. It's definitely good for this time of year and since this seasons lippy is deep purples, berries and reds, you need soft non-chapped lips in order for it too look nice.
The only down side, to me it smells like lavender and I don't like lavender. I smelt it in the shop and thought it would be ok as it wasn't that strong. But the more I use it, the more over-powering the smell is. And lavender always gives me a headache.
The packaging is very cute and I like that it's called Pink Bubbly but I don't really think it's worth the money. I love the Crème Brule and Coco Butter ones which are under £2.00 and have gorgeous scents and also do the same thing, so I think I'll just stick to them.
Have you used this new Vaseline Lip balm? What do you think of it?
