Best lip product, please never change the formula!

I’ve always used lip balms but found that my lips would become reliant on them, so they would become even more chapped if I forgot my lip product at home for that day. This Burt Bees lip treatment is amazing! I use it as a lip balm, so I might apply it once or twice in the day, and also before bed. Some days I might only apply before bed. Either way, my lips now consistently look AND feel moisturised, soft, comfortable and hydrated. Whereas before, I relied constantly on applying my lip balm to feel ok, but actually those products made my lips so reliant on them that I couldn’t function without the product. This Burts Bee lip treatment genuinely supports my lip wellbeing. Please never change the formula, please keep making this product Burts Bees!!! I constantly have one in every handbag and several around the house. Love these!

After one session, I can see a a difference in my chapped and dry cuticles. If you can do multiple uses or be consistent with using it a few times weekly, you can keep your cuticles feeling and looking comfortable. It does take a bit of time to absorb so make sure you’ve allowed for that after applying (ie. Not about to go make dinner right after). The waxy texture means it stays stuck on your skin while it absorbs, so it’s not wet and fluid and getting on eveyrthing you touch. I like the light lemony fragrance and the easy-to-carry packaging. One tin lasts forever as well, so it’s effective but doesn’t break the bank!

I really enjoyed this product because it is SPF50+, cruelty-free, paraben free, free from chemical sunscreen absorbers and reef safe. A lot of thought went into making this an ethical brand. The texture is a creamy and a little thick but not overly so. I think most zinc based sunscreens can be thick, but I thought this product was still comfortable. The finish wasn't greasy and I didn't have a super white cast after using the product. If you usually use water-based sunscreens, this will feel heavier in comparison. However compared to most sunscreens on the Aussie market, I reckon the finish on this is not greasy at all. I didn't feel the need to blot myself 30 minutes later. I used to wear very heavy zinc sunscreens in my childhood, so I was very happy to see they've continued to improve comfort and wearability. I did sometimes notice skin pilling. On one wear, there was a LOT of skin pilling all over my face. On other wears, I did not get any skin pilling. I like this product a lot so I'm going to persevere and try to figure out the right combination to avoid pilling. So far I think I get the best results when I don't use a heavy moisturiser underneath and then apply this on top. Best to go with lighter products underneath to avoid pilling. Overall - I really love the quality of sun protection that doesn't come at the trade-off of being a greaseball, and the ethical brand.

This product is convenient and easy-to-use. Inside is a big foam pillow with a little slit. You put your finger into the slit and turn your finger around, rubbing the nail polish off. Presto, you're done! Gone are the days of pressing against your nail with a cotton pad that quickly dries up. You can sit in front of the TV and absentmindedly twist each finger, and then you're done! No little bits of nail polish stuck at the crevice or along one corner of your nailbed, because the foam really hugs your finger and gets all over it. I tested this with a nail polish with three coats, no glitter. The foam is very saturated with nail polish remover, so it works quite quickly. The lid closes tightly so I'm not too worried that it'll evaporate out. Only thing to note - don't turn this upside down as you're using it, which I did. There's a LOT of product inside, and it will leak out of the bottle and into your lap! Really easy-to-use and fairly priced too!

I thought my nails were already strong, so I was surprised that my nails somehow felt strong and looked smoother after using this for five days. This product is used by applying 1-2 layers daily for five days. Now when I look closely at my natural nails, the faint lines have smoothed out, my nails are shinier, and if I press down on a nail -- it feels noticeably harder and stronger! The formula was very smooth. Not thick or gluggy, or overly watery and runny. This meant it was really easy to apply each day and dried quickly. Brush was easy to use. After using this product for a few days, there are enough layers that your nails have a white sheen to it. A bit like if you had done a white-tone manicure! I thought it looked quite aesthetically nice In conclusion -- I'm gonig to keep using this product and will probably re-purchase. I thought my nails were already strong but somehow they're even stronger! And I love that it doubles as a nail polish.

Wow, I was surprised by how much I love this product. I have super dry skin, so I was sure that this gel-creme formula would do nothing for me. I'm happy to say I was wrong! Gel-creme is the perfect description. It's creamier and thicker than a gel, but still much lighter than a traditional cream. Therefore I think it would feel very comfortable on oily or normal skin. For my super dry skin, I included this product as one step in my moisturising regime which includes using multiple layers. Having this as one of the layers really helped my skin feel hydrated and nourished, before putting on the heavier layers afterwards. The hyaluronic acid works! I also could put on less of the heavy layers, which meant I didn't have to wake up with a greasy face. Adore this product! I will be introducing it as a permanent product in my skincare regime.

Let me start by saying that the formula is very nice. It glides on smoothly and the texture is quite creamy and soft, so my lips did feel very comfortable and moisturised. A lot of glittery lip colours tend to be drying, but this was not. It lives up to our expectations of Burt's Bees formula! The lip colour is quite translucent. Make sure you liberally apply a few layers to get a nice colour out of it, otherwise it'll look too transluscent on your lips. On my first wear, I only applied a little and was disappointed by how it washed out my natural skin tone. Make sure to go over it a few times and put on multiple layers. I have mixed feelings about the shade, Peony. It is similar to my natural lip colour on my medium-olive skin, but I wish it were warmer or pinker to create that "looks like your natural lips but better" shade. There is quite a lot of visible shimmer in it, which isn't for everyone. The end result is a frosty shimmery look. This product contains peppermint oil for a spicy refreshing feeling upon application. Unfortunately I didn't enjoy the taste of peppermint oil, which made it hard for me to keep this product on. If you don't mind a very strong peppermint taste and are after a creamy shimmery product, this might work for you.

I really liked this packaging. It's like a little syringe which allows you to easily push out a pea-sized amount to use. No wastage and very sanitary... and also really fun to use! The texture is a silicone-based product. It feels very nice on the skin and seems to 'meld' into skin quite quickly. I will say silicone is more for the appearance of your skin, rather than improving the actual state of your skin. Therefore, I think the product's best uses would be as a primer under foundation/concealer, or a standalone primer to just brighten up your undereyes without any makeup. If you're using another eye cream, you could probably also layer this on top to 'seal' in the bottom product to give your skin the best chance to absorb all of the bottom product. There are some good ingredients like lyaluronic acid and peptides, so I'm sure there is some benefit to skin health. An enjoyable product to use. I'm going to implement it into my AM routine to brighten up my face when I'm going with a makeup-free day.
