The Body Shop Born Lippy Lip Balm

By Behindtheseclosedeyes @theseclosedeyes
Having previously been a bit of a lip balm junkie, it was interesting to go through my old collection and pop some of them into my everyday make-up routine rather than using lipgloss or Vaseline which I'm getting a bit bored of. I had forgotten about these three little tubs from The Body Shop which I picked up last year while purchasing my Mum's present for Mother's Day (the sales assistants sure know to make you spend more in there!). Anyway, I decided to give these another go and now remember why I liked them so much. I have  them in the flavours Mango & Peach, Strawberry, and Watermelon, and from what I can remember there was some sort of 3 for 2 or money-off offer which persuaded me to buy them in the end.
Swatches L-R: Mango & Peach, Strawberry, Watermelon
From the swatches you can see that the balms contain a little bit of color for the lips which I like as they are subtle without being completely sheer and glossy. I find the formula nice and moisturising with a bit of stickiness which is to be expected from a lip balm. My favorite thing about these balms are the flavours themselves as each is a very close match to the fruit smell/taste intended, with the Mango & Peach being my favorite as it is just delicious.
These lip balms can be found in The Body Shop stores or online and come in a variety of flavours. These little pots are priced at £2 which I think is very reasonable for the quality and sheer yummyness of the lip balms.
