Unfortunately as some of my previous reviews have indicated, I'm a little bit of a sucker at falling for the rave recommendations of various bloggers, magazines, youtubers, etc...... This was definitely one of the products that I purchased blind based on some amazing reviews I heard! I purchased this around a year ago for £5 from The Body Shop online and really liked how nearly 80% of the price goes towards the 'Staying Alive Foundation which educates people about HIV/AIDS. It's quite rare that such a big percentage from a very popular product goes towards a charity and I was all for that. The product is also made in the UK which was another plus.

I don't generally wear makeup on a day to day basis, so do tend to miss out on the moisturising properties of lipsticks.

I follow a lot of beauty vloggers on Youtube. I always like to look at several reviews of a new beauty product before I commit to buying (something that dooyoo now helps me with too!) Recently I've watched a few Youtube reviews on The Body Shops Tantalising Lip Butter, which is a product I have seen before as in my local Body Shop there is a red and green display stand of them at the cash registers, but I never took much notice or thought about purchasing one. The vloggers were raving about the scent, and that the majority of the purchase price goes to a HIV/AIDS charity in Africa. All the reviews were very positive, so the next time I went ...  Read the complete review
