Review: The Body Shop Born Lippy Lip Balm (Plum & Lychee)

Ah finally i made this review about Born Lippy Lip Balm ^^
So as i've showed you before, i bought two born lippy lip balms, plum and lychee flavoured. I didn't really pay attention to what it claims tho. The packaging is cute and efficient, with retractable tubes that's absolutely better than jars.

Let's see how it looks:

with flash (top: plum; bottom: lychee)

without flash (top: plum; bottom: lychee)

On my lips:

lychee

plum

Please ignore my weird lips >.<

I applied them a little too much so the camera can catch it. As you can see from the pictures, the lychee lip balm is more of a shimmer than a balm because it's really sparkly, you can use it if you want to highlight the lips. I think it's not really suitable for daily use.

The plum lip balm looks more natural, it's still really sheer even if i apply it a little too much. It will be good if you put it on top of a stain because it will give healthy shine to your lips. I like to use it daily because it just looks really 'normal' but it improves my lips appearance.

Both of them smells good and don't have a taste. But i think the don't really moisturize my lips (the lip butter does the job better) and also they don't stay long, if i can't say they disappear really quickly. i think they just disappear after 30 minutes o.O

It moisten my lips when it's there but after it disappears.... swoosh~ my lips go back to its ugly self ._.

Conclusion:

Pros:

-better packaging

-smells good

-cute colour

-have their own purpose (one for party etc., one for daily use)

-can be combined with other lip make up

Cons:

-doesn't really moisturize

-staying power is really weak

So i still need more hydration for my lips...

Review: The Body Shop Strawberry Soap

Finally i'm back *sigh* i'm just too tired to write stuffs, sorry :(

So the good news is, this is a review post!! *\(^0^)/*

So i'm gonna say a few words about this strawberry soap bar from The Body Shop:

sorry you can't really see the ingredients here ._.

I got it for free as my first birthday gift from The Body Shop :D

It smells really strawberry-y, the smell is strong, even i can smell it from outside the wrap hehe ^^ It has smooth surface and glides on easily on your skin if you wash it with water. But i think it's slightly different from the shower gel of the same line. I think it gives less moisture than the shower gel one. It just cleans my skin, leaving my skin feeling squeaky clean but it's not as smooth as when i use the shower gel on my body. It's good for quick shower tho because it comes off easily with water (i need to wash my body thousand times to get rid of the shower gel). Well so honestly i don't have much to say about a soap bar. It just... cleans your body, isn't it? :D

So let's sum this up:

Pros:

-it smells good, and strong

-it cleans my skin

-it comes off easily with water (good for quick shower ;) )

 Cons:

-it doesn't really moisturize my skin

well overall i think there's nothing special about it except from it's scent. A soap bar is a soap bar, right? See ya.
