Burt's Bees Reviews #1 | Lip Shimmer

You may have seen a recent post of mine, where I purchased & wrote about the Burt’s Bees Grab Bag. If you didn't, & you fancy a quickie you can have a look . I received lots of little goodies; and I’m slowly working my way through them, one by one :)

They sent me quite a few of their Lip Shimmers; I'M IN LOVE, seriously. The ones I received came in shade rhubarb (yum); & I’d say the colour is very true to that. Obviously, being lip shimmers, they don’t carry a lot of pigmentation; however I absolutely love this shade & how it instantly brightens your lips. The gloss is very subtle & extremely moisturising. It smells just like peppermint, & gives a tingling soothing sensation on application - perfect for summer! These babies are made up with 100% natural ingredients which is something I really love & tend to look for in a product. Personally, I really love the packaging; I'm a little bit in love with Burt's Bees & the simplicity of their products aesthetically. The lip shimmers are available in 10 different shades & retail at £5.99.



I think I’m definitely going to purchase a few more colours.

What do you think? Have you tried these before? If not, & you wouldn't mind giving them a whirl you can grab them off the Burt's Bees website, here.

Ooh, P.S. I finally hopped on the iPhone wagon…so I’m now officially instagram obsessed. If you fancy following me, my username is: wonderfuly0u

      thank you! it's so subtle, but warming at the same time. it's a shame they haven't brought the grab bags back, they're still advertised on the website as out of stock, so keep your eyes peeled just in case :) x
