Update on Burt's Bees Lip Balm

Update on Burt's Bees Lip Balm: So a few weeks ago, I bought the Burt's Bees Replenishing Lip Balm with Pomegranate oil. I only recently tried it and I love it! It goes on extremely smooth and I can put it on under any lip balm. It conditions my lips throughout the day, but I have to reapply after eating or drinking. If I have really dry lips then I put it on before I go to sleep so I have wonderful, soft, uncracked lips in the morning. The one thing I don't like is the smell. It smells like regular chapstick. Since I'm so used to the strawberry smell that the Snapple Lip Balm had, this doesn't have an appealing smell.

Recommended? ABSOLUTELY! I know some people don't really like it but it really works wonders on my lips! Plus most of the ingredients are natural.

I went to Target, Walgreens, and Bath and Body works today. Had to get some party favors for the party I'm hosting on Friday! Anyways, I saw E.L.F cosmetics for $1.00 each at Target, so I just had to get them!! I got three lip glosses called Angel, Watermelon, and Pink Kiss. Angel is a sheer gloss with sparkle stuff inside. Pink Kiss is a pale pink color, similar to Bath and Body Works Pink Grapefruit lip gloss. Watermelon is a deeper shade of pink, kind of like maroonish. This line is called Super Glossy Lip Shine SPF 15. I don't think I'm going to try them out... instead I'll use them as party favors =). I'll ask my friends what they think of it.

Then I headed over to Bath and Body work to check out their new line of C.O Bigelow tinted lip glosses. The smell was too strong for me so I didn't get any, but my sister got Liplicious lip gloss in Frozen Daiquiri. The smell of it isn't that great, but it's bearable, and it looked wonderful on her lips. I did buy a pocket-sized mirror ($4) from them which is super cute!!! I'll get a pic later... It can fit into any purse or bag easily and is about the size of my palm. I wanted one in white, but they didn't have any, so I settled for light blue. I've almost used up my lovely Snapple lip balm so I needed a new one. C.O Bigelow has a lip balm called SPF 15 Mentha Lip Balm Stick (No Shine Formula) and I was temped to get it until I saw the price... $7.50!!! Geez, no way am I paying that much for lip balm... maybe when it's on sale.

So to find a good lip balm, I went over to Walgreens to check out their stuff. In the end, I bought Burt's Bees lip balm with Pomegranate oil. It was $2.99. Most of the reviews are good, and hopefully it will be as good as my Snapple lip balm!
