A Closer Look: Lip Balm


Uh-oh I've got a bit of a lip balm addiction although some of them are multi-purpose balms... I actually didn't realise I had so many!

Willow Organic Beauty Luxury Lip Balm 5ml* - this is a real luxe lip balm and leaves the lips super soft.  See my review here.

bodhi Cacao Cocoon Lip Treatment Balm 15g - love this super moisturising balm.  See my review here.

de Mamiel Rosey Lip Balm 10ml - I received this from hubby at my birthday after dropping several hints! Absolutely love it. It deeply moisturises the lips leaving them scented with roses. Gorgeous!  This one's constantly in my make up bag.

Nuxe Reve de Miel Lip Balm 15g - a rich balm for the lips which is a cult product (and a love/hate one too) I tend to use it in the evening just before bed. It can also be used on dry skin areas and cuticles.

Dr Organic Rose Otto Lip Balm Serum 10ml - a gorgeous serum which smells like raspberry ripple ice cream! See my review here.

Bee Fruitful Mandarin Lip Balm 5ml* - a lovely fruity balm.  See my thoughts here.

Sweet Cecily's Mojito Flavour Lip Balm 10ml - flavoured with lime and mint just like a Mojito. I love the cute tin it comes in. See my review here.

balance Me Shine on Tinted Lip Salve 5g - this was a magazine freebie and I love it! (I picked up a couple). Gives lips a lightly tinted glossy look. It features in my balance Me favourites here.

Sprout (now SW Basics) Peppermint Lip Balm .15oz - a Vegan lip balm which is made of four ingredients. Deeply moisturising and smells good enough to eat.  See my review here.

BRIXI Bee Balm - a gorgeous beeswax balm that can be used on the lips and also other dry areas of the skin.  See my review here.

Mary Elizabeth Spearmint & Tea Tree Nurture Balm 15ml* - one of my favourite multi-use products of last year.  See my review here.

Melvita Apicosma Repairing Lip Balm 10ml - a lovely repairing lip balm which deeply moisturises. See my thoughts here.

Chain Bridge Honey Farm Tangerine Lip Balm 12g - Ana from Ana Goes Green very kindly sent me this with a little note after Bess our dog died. It cheered me up and lifted my spirits - thanks Ana.  100% natural and super moisturising - smells good too!

eos Summer Fruits Lip Balm 7g - a really fruity balm which is 95% organic and is Petroleum and paraben free. Leave lips moisturised and soft.

Molly Rose Pickles & Ice Cream Lip Balm .15oz* - I received this in February's Vegan Cuts Beauty Box. The most unusual flavoured lip balm I've ever tried! Leaves the lips smooth and moisturised.

Burt's Bees Rose Tinted Lip Balm 4.25g - a nourishing lip balm with a rose tint. A really pretty shade.

Estelle & Thild Raspberry Lip Balm - this lovely balm came in the very first Selfridges Beauty Box and what a box it was! A clear glossy balm flavoured with raspberry.

Simply Bee Lip Balm 10ml* - soothes the lips leaving them moisturised and soft. Smells of peppermint.  See my review here.

Rodial Glam Balm Lip 2.5g - a turkish delight rose scented balm which keeps lips soft and nourished.

The Organic Pharmacy Rose Balm 10ml - a rose scented multi-purpose balm which is packed full of good things for the skin.  Great for moisturising on the go.

Nuxe Reve de Miel Lip Moisturizing Stick 4g - deeply moisturises the lips. Smells great too and good for the handbag or pocket.

Jane Iredale Just Kissed Lip & Cheek Stain - moisturises and tints the lips with a stain ranging from pale pink to red depending on your mood. One of my all time favourite products.

Ooops I forgot a few..


Lanolips 101 Ointment 15g - not used this for a while! See my review here.

Lush It Started with a Kiss Lip Tint 8g & Aromatherapy Associates Hydrating Lip Balm 7ml - I received both of these from Julie in our Birthday Swap and I've not tried them yet!
