I had absolutely no idea what Nivea Lip Butters were like in terms of quality, my sweet tooth was simply attracted by the Caramel Cream flavour. I've had this for quite a while and surprisingly I have almost finished it. This is surprising because I never ever get to the end of lip balms. Mainly because I carry about five in my handbag at any one time, am I the only one that does this?
Since I was almost at the end of my Caramel Cream flavour I decided to pick up the Vanilla and Macadamia one too.
First of all I love the packaging of these little lovelies, more than that though they smell amazing. The Caramel Cream flavour smells so good and so sweet that it actually makes me hungry! The Vanilla and Macadamia one also has a gorgeous smell just not quite as sweet, so if you're not a sugar addict like me then you might prefer this one.
So far we have good packing and beautiful smells, but it doesn't stop there. I've tried every kind of lip balm and this is without doubt the best, at least for me. Unlike Vaseline it doesn't seem to just settle on my lips, the moisturised feel lasts for a good couple of hours even in this horrible cold weather and it makes my lips look lovely and smooth without looking too shiny. This winter is the first winter in a while that I've never had sore lips and I put that down totally to this.
I know Baby Lips is a lot of bloggers favourites and I own a few and I like them enough but in terms of doing what they're actually meant to do and that's moisturise, Baby Lips can't even come close. These are slightly cheaper than Baby Lips but, at £2.25, are a little bit more expensive than Vaseline. Definitely worth the price though, they last forever and you'll never have sore or chapped lips again.
Has anyone else tried these or have any other lip balm suggestions?
