[Guest Post] I Love Strawberries and Milkshake ~ Glossy Lip Balm Review + Swatches

Image
Today I am going to be reviewing 'I Love Strawberries and Milkshake Glossy Lip Balm' from Superdrug.  This it what it claims: "Fall in love again; there’s something about the super smoothness of a thick creamy aroma, united with a burst of fresh strawberries, that leaves the senses elated and the tastebuds-a-tingling! Come on don’t be shy, sink in your fingertips and smooth onto the lips, leaving them feeling soft, moisturised and ultimately kissable." It's priced at 99p for a huge 15ml of product. When you first open the jar you can smell the scent of strawberries and milkshake which smells delicious. The product is a good consistency not too sticky and not oily, it's just right. Only a little amount of product is needed to achieve a glossy finish with a pink tint to it. This lip balm reminds me of Sleek Pout Polishes only this is a quarter of the price.  I Love Strawberries & Milkshake Glossy Lip Balm is available from Superdrug and is priced at 99p. For...

hey everyone! hope you are all ok. i'm doing really well here in Australia - loving every moment :) i just thought i'd catch up on this blog, and let you all in on one of my latest videos, if you haven't already seen it - #7 in my healthy living tips series, all about fresh air. read on after watching for more info... so why is it important to get out in the fresh air, and how much of it should we be getting?  - fresh air is one of the all time most secretive, yet obvious, beauty tips out there. my mother has always said that a good quantity of fresh air will ensure a great complexion and help you sleep better too.  - it's important to make sure you go outside every day, and breath in the pure natural air (especially if you live in the countryside). even better if you can do your exercise out of doors - have you ever noticed how horseriders, skiers, gardeners and cyclists have awesome skin?  - by spending more time outside, you'll be breathing in cleaner air with mo...
