Say Aloe to Kissable Lips!
Sometimes our lips just get a little bit dry & flakey (horrible to admit I know)!
I've tried soooo many different types & brands of lip balms/ conditioners and just never really found anything that really moisturised the lips deep down.
This was until fellow youtuber Essie Button mentioned this amazing lip treatment from The Body Shop.
I don't tend to shop in The Body Shop a lot, I don't really have a reason for it. It's just a shop I've never really took much notice of.
So I decided to give this bad boy a try!
At £5 it certainly isn't the cheapest of lip balm products but the tube it comes in is considerably larger than most tubed lip balms (15ml compared to the usual 7ml).
The lip product I think works amazingly, really hydrates deep down and smooths the lips. It's also very glossy looking, my boyfriend even thought I'd got lipgloss on!
It's quite a thick consistency and at first a little sticky, but not unmanageable sticky.
Due to this thick consistency the product sits on the lips for quite some time but is still working it's magic at the same time. I prefer to put it on before I go to sleep for this reason.
However on the flip-side this stops the whole product coming off the minute you have a slip of a drink (which I find is a pain with most lip balms)!
So overall I think The Body Shop Aloe Lip Care works well, very well!
But... there have to be some downsides right?
Personally I'm not a fan of the smell, I'm not 100% on what it smells of but it's a very sweet smell.
I also am not a fan on the packaging, the applicator is one of those ones with just a hole & you push the product out. I just don't like them, I find them messy and feel they don't distribute the product very evenly on the lips.
But these are just personal preferences!
