At this time of the year when the rain comes down heavy and the wind blasts your face, the one product I am never without is a lip balm in my bag, truth be told, there is usually more than one. New to my bag are these Burt's Bees Moisturising Lip butter which takes lip balms to a whole new level.
Burt’s Bees® Lip Butter is said to provide instant moisturisation to the lips in a lightweight, luxurious texture. For these butters, Burt's Bees has infused the formula with a botanical blend flavour alongside moisturising Shea and Cocoa butters.
I am a huge fan of how these butters feel on the lips, once applied, it melts onto the lips almost immediately on contact and rather than leave a greasy balm feel, instead, you just have soft, smooth lips which feel really hydrated. Burt’s Bees® lip butter is available in two botanical-blend flavours which I have to share with you.
The first is Orange Blossom and Pistachio which can be detected from the bright orange lid and inside, the butter, which is very lightly whipped in texture smells just absolutely divine.
On the lips, whilst the beautiful scent of both the orange blossom, which is as fruity as it is fresh combined with Pistachio to give that earthy scent, applies like a dream. It is not sticky or tacky, it doesn't irritate or sting and what I love is that it does create an incredible base for applying lipstick.
The second Lip Butter is Lavender and Honey and again, it is hard not to love the scent of this one too. Fresh Lavender is one of my favourite scents, there is something about it which I find relaxing but mixed here with honey, what you get is a slight sweetness too.
As with the Orange Blossom and Pistachio Lip Butter, this one also applies like a dream as it glides across the lips and in doing so, adds moisture and almost wraps the lips in an invisible veil of protection. It is also not sticky or tacky and once applied, it too absorbs almost instantly.
Both of these lip butters come in a collectable easy-open press-top tin are formulated without parabens, phthalates, SLS or petrolatum and scientifically tested by a dermatologist so you can feel good about using it on your skin.
