Finally a beauty post! Just wanted to do a short post on these lipbalms I love using as winter approaches & just in general. From Left - right: EOS Summer Fruits / Figs & Rouge / Carmex Original / Balmi Mint /Balance Me Rose otto intensive lip salve. EOS Summer Fruits- Really moisturising as it contains shea butter and jojoba oil. It's also 95% organic and smells lovely! The cute packaging makes it handbag friendly too. Figs & Rouge Rambling Rose - lip, face and body balm 100% organic. - I received this in one of my previous Glossyboxs' didn't really think much of it until my Vaseline ran out and gave this a try. Its works great sort of like a conditioning treatment for your lips at night. Carmex Original - I love how quick this moisturises and takes away the dry skin on your lips as soon as you put it on but the menthol tastes takes a while to get used to though.Balmi Mint Flavour - On the same lines of the EOS lipbalm, this also contains shea butter and jojoba oil, I actually find this more moisturising than the EOS one. It has a nice menthol feeling like Carmex and also smells minty fresh. In comparison to EOS it's smaller in size and I love how its got a loophole so you can attach it to your keys; handy! Balance Me Rose otto intensive lip salve - Like the Figs and Rouge, I also received this in a Glossybox. I use this now and again when im out of reach of all the above, it feels thick in consistency and nourishes the lips really well, but i can't seem to get used to the smell! >.<
Hope you enjoyed reading this first beauty post! What are your lip essentials for Winter? Angela xo
