Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm

Beauty review

I will be reviewing Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm all of these photos are my own and so are my opinions.

I got this lip balm from Boots for £3.69 ,this is quite expensive for such a small lip balm but its worth the money ,this lip balm is very compact, lightweight and moisturising. 

It comes in an orange and red packaging which is sweet and simple.It opens by twisting the bottom of the lip balm , when you apply the lip balm on it is quite thick but it quickly melts into your lips.It has no colour when it is applied.
   Pros:
  • keeps lips soft
  • moisturising
  • simple packaging
  • lasts for a long time 
  • has a peppermint flavour to help keep breath fresh 


   cons:
  • Gets lost easily

face masks

Homemade face masks are great ways to clean your skin.

Dry skin  

Mash 1/2 a ripe avocado in a bowl, then 

stir in honey.

Apply to skin and leave for 10 minutes. 

Rinse face with a cool washcloth.

oily skin: 

put 1/4 of a cup of strawberries and non-flavored yogurt

 in a blender to combine or mash 

together the 

strawberries and yogurt with a fork 

(the blender works

 best). Spread on face and wash after 

10-15 minutes.

combination skin:

Mash up half to one whole banana in a 

bowl with a 

tablespoon of honey and spread this on your skin and 

rinse off after 10 minutes.

thnx :) <3

lip Balm Review


I recently bought a lip balm from the body shop and its amazing , called vanilla bliss it's  in an half egg shaped container which I think is great.Vanilla bliss is colour less but it has a little shimmer to it ,ginger sparkles and cranberry joy are also flavors that are available .

pros

  • nice smell
  • leaves lips soft
  • Not to large
  • not  to bright
  • natural ingredients
 cons 
  • bits stick to the lip balm
  • lid cracks
  • the lids screw lines dent the lip balm
 Overall this is quite a good product. I got it on sale for 2 pounds but it is originally 4 pounds. click  here to go to the site.


Thank you  <3 :)
