Boots Lipsalve Strawberry

Now that the nights are getting dark and the temperature is dropping it's time for me to find a decent lip balm. Now I've tried a wide selection and the problem is they only work for a short amount of time. So the money spent has been completely pointless. It is probably the only product which I buy according to the brand. Aside from now that is. The Boots Essentials lip balm comes in two other flavours as well as strawberry. Them being original and spearmint. Not liking mint, this was the obvious choice for me. It comes in a little plastic tube, just the same style as your average lipstick. Whilst the packaging is a deep pink the actual balm is ...  Read the complete review

As anyone who regularly reads my reviews knows - I use a lot of lip salve! I cannot stand my lips being dry and I suffer from this problem all year round in sun, wind or in doors in the central heating. I find myself constantly licking my lips and then wiping them dry which just makes my lips feel even worse. Consequently I have a collection of various lip balms in drawers around the house and more in my handbags. The one that I am currently using is Boots Lipsalve in the Strawberry flavour and it cost me the princely sum of 99p! It is also available in spearmint, original and lemon flavours - there may be more but these are the ones that I have ...  Read the complete review

This lipsalve has to be one of my ultimate childhood memories- purely because of the amount of my friends (who were very young at the time) who found out that lipsalve does not taste at all like it smells! It costs 99 pence from Boots and apart from strawberry you can also buy a range small range of other 'flavours' and an original version that contains sun protection factor 15 and all have been dermatologically tested. The lipsalve comes in a little tube that is 7cm long and lid forms the largest part of the packaging, which is good if you need to use it whilst you're skiing or walking because it's easy to use with gloves on. Lipsalves with tiny little lids ...  Read the complete review

Having very dry lips that seem to get chapped very easily, I like to always have some sort of lip balm with me. So whenever I've gone out for the day and forgotton one, I end up buying a new one. Being a very forgetful person I've built up a pretty large collection of different lip balms and I have to say, this Boots Strawberry Lipsalve was not one of the best I've used. It is a quite good price, being 99p and if I remember rightly there were a few other flavours to choose from. It comes in a standard sized pink tube that you have twist to bring up the lip balm. It's got a good smell. Very sweet, strong strawberry smell. Could be said to be a bit ...  Read the complete review

I tried this lipbalm when I was up in the lakes and had left mine at home. It's very cheap , only 99 pence, but I really wish I'd gone for the more expensive one now. The strawberry flavour, although pleasant is very synthetic and did not taste like strawberries at all. That didn't really bother me though. This lipbalm although quite smooth when I first put it on soon went gritty and so I decided after I had used it a few times not to use it again...but when I woke up in the morning my lips were very dry and not just chapped, but bleeding. I can only assume it was the lipbalm, as the problem was soon corrected with a couple of days using Vaseline. It ...  Read the complete review
