Hello there internet world.
I’m back again with some more reviews. This time I am reviewing some of the lip products that I use every day. I’m going to start with a chapstick, as it is winter and that is an essential product. I’m going to tell you guys about a product that a lot of people love, and that’s the Burt’s Bees replenishing lip balm. Mine is the one that is infused with pomegranate oil. Let’s start with the positives. This does an amazing thing where in the package it doesn’t smell like much, on your lips it doesn’t smell like much, but when you first apply it and breathe it in, it tastes like pomegranate, which also triggers your nose to smell it. I know that sounds weird, and slightly insane, but it’s true. I find that it does help with chapped lips, which is great considering that’s what its for. Alright, and that’s where my like/hate relationship enters. I am a firm believer that chapstick shouldn't cost more than 3 or so dollars. This cost nearly seven dollars, which I guess it makes up for with how much product there is. I also find that when I put this on it kind of just sits on top of my lips, like a lipgloss. I don’t feel my lips are moisturized and after a while it started to tingle. When I take it off, I find that my lips are flaked. That’s a weird reaction for me to have, and I wonder if it could be an allergy. I honestly have no clue, so this reaction could just be limited to me. For my peace of mind, let me know in the comments if any of you have experienced this. Still, I don’t hate this product because it is better than some of the other lip balms that I have used, but I wouldn’t really recommend it to anyone. I still use this everyday because it was flipping expensive, but i’m not in love with it.
The second product that i’m going to review is my Rimmel stay glossy lip gloss in the color Fuchsia Fever. 
I have one of these in the color nonstop glamour. That one is nice, but it kind of only adds glitter and a slight nude color to my lips. I much prefer the fuschia one because the color is beautiful. Literally, it looks like i’m wearing lipstick. It’s not sticky and it lasts for hours, even when I rub my lips together all day. Finally the color really compliments my skin tone, and I think that it can complement a lot of other skin tones as well. In conclusion, I love this lip gloss.
The final product that i’m going to review is a pricier product. It’s the Obsessive Compulsive Lip tar. Mine is in the color Role Play and has a metallic finish.
This is not cheap. It costs 18 dollars and as a college student that was a lot, but I tried it on in Sephora and I just had to have it. The fact that I paid 20 dollars for this one product should clue you in to how much I love it. Here’s why. Number one: this is a lip stain that doesn’t dry out your lips, and it applies really nicely. It lasts literally all day, as long as you don’t drink anything. Considering how much this costs and how beautiful it is, I am willing to waterfall all of my drinks, or stay thirsty. However, some of you may not be willing to do that. Also, you need to apply this with a brush, which it comes with. On to the next great thing about this product. The metallic finish brings so much attention to your lips; it also gives the stain some gloss, and I think that it actually makes my lips look bigger. This is what I wear if i’m going to go anywhere special or if it’s a holiday. Now here’s a warning: when you go to buy this product, it may look kind of small, but you don’t need much of this to get a great look. It’s not something that you need to build up. The way that this looks in the container, is the way that it’s going to look on your lips. Taking that into consideration, there is plenty in the container. The final great thing about this is the fact that it’s cruelty-free! That’s fantastic and makes me feel really great about the brand. For those of you who may not know what that means, it basically means that it wasn’t tested on animals, and that no animals were harmed in order to make this product. It’s also vegan, if that’s something that you guys look for.
Here are some swatches:
The one on the right is the Fuchsia Fever. The one on the left is Role play. Also, ignore the scissors in the background.
That’s all folks! I hope you guys found this helpful, or interesting.
Until next time!
