The Body Shop Born Lippy Lip Balm

Every winter without fail my lips decide to remind me (with much more aggression than is necessary) that they really don't like the cold. Ever since I can remember I have had troublesome lips that can become dry very rapidly. They also crack and bleed very easily, sometimes just from a simple thing as yawning. This often results in a strange mix of red raw swollen lips with thick plaques of dead skin! Attractive, I know! This rather embarrassing problem of mine even got me into trouble at school as my lips were so red it looked like I was wearing lipstick and it took ages to convince the teachers that my lips were just red and sore! Throughout the years I have tried a ...  Read the complete review

I'd been meaning to buy a new lipbalm for ages. Since my Lush 'Lip Service' ran out a few weeks ago I'd just been using Vaseline on my lips, but a few days ago, I was shopping and decided to buy a new lipbalm. So I did... But first I had to choose where to buy it from: Boots, Superdrugs or The Body Shop? Desicions, desicions, eh? As you've probably already guessed, I decided to buy a lip balm from the Body Shop. This was because I'd used a Boots lip balm before (And reviewed it...), and I'd already been in to The Body Shop (quite a few times, actually...) to sniff their lip balms, and they smelt gorgeous! So in The Body ...  Read the complete review

I bought three of these when they were on 3 for 2 in Body Shop, despite the smell being absoloutley divine the product itself was not the best for moisturising or clearing up dry lips. I bought the following flavours; raspberry, strawberry and watermelon. The product: The product itself is a lip balm, it is in the same form as vaseline as that it is in a pot. It is under the Body Shop make 'Born Lippy'. There are other lip balms in the store that are in the normal 'stick' style, so if you are looking for this product it is undth the 'Born Lippy' range. The range: There are many different flavours in this range most of which are of 'sweet ...  Read the complete review

I bought this last week because I needed a lip balm to keep in my car. I used to buy this lip balm when I was in school but haven't used it now for quite a while. My favourite flavours are strawberry and raspberry but I chose the raspberry one this time because the strawberry is a bit sickly. It is £3.00 for the 10ml pot, which is cheaper than I expected, I'm sure it hasn't gone up in price much since I last bought it years ago. ***Packaging... It comes in a standard shape round plastic pot. It is clear so you can see the colour of the lip balm inside the pot. It has a sticker on the lid which covers it, it is a red background with a pink ...  Read the complete review

I have two of these lip balms, "Chat Up Lime" and "Last Strawberry". They both smell delicious although they just taste waxy, so don't try eating them! I've had both of them for a couple of years and although I have several other lip balms on the go they have still be used regularly and I am pleased to say there is plenty left. They are both quite moisturising - my lips always feel better after I have used them. They are not as moisturising as the range of lip balms that The Body Shop used to do before this one, but have much more of an effect than Vaseline (which being petroleum jelly mostly just sits on top of the skin). They ...  Read the complete review
