The thing I long for, and am still on a quest for, are soft lush lips. Unfortunately the reality is, with the long harsh winters here my lips are constantly dry. They are not so extreme to be flaky but they are always dry, chapped and feel rough to the touch - not what a girl wants and not what a guy wants to kiss! I tend to buy a lot of lip balms and the like, mostly because I either lose them, or because (and this is usually the case) my daughter claims them as her own 'make up' and I never see them again. When my lips were particularly bad I decided I needed something a little more than just your regular chap stick. Browsing the shelves I spotted this ...  Read the complete review

I was in Boots the other day and I was doing a regular check of my favourite products to see if any were on offer. One of the products I checked was lip salves and I found that the Blistex products were on offer 2 for £3. I noticed that there was one called Blistex Intensive Moisturiser Hydrate which looked very similar in package design to the Nivea one that I like so much. The normal price is £2.25 so 2 for £3 was an excellent offer. The lip balm comes in a little cardboard box fixed to the bottom of a piece of cardboard so the packaging is all recycleable then, as the tube itself also ends up in the recycling bag when it is empty too, so that's ...  Read the complete review

I'm just coming to the end of this tube of lip moisturiser, and was surprised to discover I hadn't already reviewed it! I picked this up from Boots last autumn, when the weather first starting turning cold and windy, and it's lasted a good 6 months or so with daily use. It retails around £2.50 from places like Boots and Superdrug. I have so many lip balms, it's bordering on an addiction. I hate the feeling of having dry or sore lips, and when the weather is cold and windy they crack easily and are generally uncomfortable. I tend to have a stash of lip balms to deal with my lips at various stages of dryness, and this is one I use as an intense moisturiser. ...  Read the complete review

Winter is always a killer on the health of my lips....my pout often dries out at this time of year and I always seem to struggle to keep them moisturised and soft often falling foul to cracking and dryness so I'm always on the lookout for lip care products that are going to refresh and hydrate my lips again to make them more comfortable and kissable. Some of the adverts on the TV recently have been promoting lip care products and the one that kept on popping up while I was watching was one for Blistex intensive moisturiser, so recently whilst shopping in my local Asda this was the latest and greatest product that I chose to give a try. **About ...  Read the complete review

Just like my poor hands, my lips have also taken a serious beating this winter. The icy conditions have left them very dry and chapped and they had even started to flake and peel. I was originally using Nivea repair and protection and although I do like this product, it just wasn't enough to keep my lips from drying out and I needed a little extra help. I had used blistex lip creams in the past and remembered them as being good so I decided to try this one. The product comes in a white plastic squeezy tube. When you take of the screw on lid, there is a plastic, angled applicator, with a small hole in the middle where the product comes ...  Read the complete review
