Burt's Bees is a American brand that offers wide range of beauty/skincare products and is very popular for their moisturizing lip care treatments specially their lip balms.All their products are made from natural ingredients.It's quite difficult to get hold of this brand in India and I'm not sure but I think burt's bees is available at Sephora in Delhi.I'm glad that i got in my October envy box because otherwise it is not possible for me to try out Burt's bees products.
My Take
Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer comes in a chap stick like packaging with a twist up mechanism.Now I've to elaborate a bit more about its twist up mechanism.While I was testing and clicking its pictures i twisted it just enough so that i could take a proper shot of the actual lip shimmer/balm and after i was done taking photos,I twisted it in a reverse direction but instead of going back inside the plastic body,the stick started coming out more.No matter in which direction i was twisting the stick,it was only moving in upward direction and now I feel really stupid for assuming that every chap stick has a lipstick kinda twist up mechanism.I can't even properly cap it now.It has a very melting texture so I've kept it in my freezer in a vertical position.So yeah that was my experience with its packaging.
Now coming to its quality,I think that this lip shimmer from burts's bees is one of the most moisturising lip care product I've ever tried.The texture is very smooth and it instantly softens chapped and dry lips.It feels very cooling and refreshing on lips because of the peppermint oil in it.This lip shimmer has a very pretty watermelon/slightly bubble gum pink shade.It contains tiny shimmers which give a subtle wearable shine on lips.
In one swipe it gives a very natural pink hue to the lips and for a more intense look you can build up the color in multiple swipes.Staying power of the color is also nice,it stays for about 2 hours on my lips after that it starts to fade a little bit.I think that this product is really good for dry lips.It's moisturising formula is fantastic.It is made from all natural ingredients and doesn't contain parabens or any other harmful chemicals.I wish i could try more of Burt's bees lip care products.Thanks to the envy box team for providing it in October envy box.
I Rate:-4.5/5

Love the color and I am yet to try the Burt's Bees lip balm
ReplyDeleteNice pigmentation! They should change the packaging to a slim angled lipstick tube like this one: http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp?pid=484746&catid=300859&cmbProdBrandFilter=1621&aid=338666&aparam=484746&kpid=484746&CAWELAID=120142990000039476&CAGPSPN=pla

thanks anurima :)
DeleteThe tint is so cute and very pigmented. Nice lip balm. Even my maybelline lip balm comes out like this. I shamelessly push it inside with my finger no option I have. Try that same technique, once it goes inside twist the lip balm only for application!
ReplyDeletethanks for the tip sonali :) xoxo
DeleteI want to try it!

ReplyDeleteexactly dear....:)
DeleteI love Burt's Bees, but I don't know if it's because of the marketing or the packaging or the quality. Probably a mixture of all three :P I love the pomegranate lip balm! -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey's
