Moisturising, good quality products in a nice set., 18 July 2016

This is a nice gift collection of Burt's Bees lip colours in three different formats: a fat lip crayon, a tinted lip balm and another tinted lip shimmer/balm. All these products are very moisturising and for someone like me, who has chronically dry lips through medication use, having a good moisturising base is essential if you are planning to wear colour.

All the colours go on very smoothly as the products are very soft - here is a warning: do not wind up the lip shimmer (Rhubarb) too high as the mechanism (on mine at least) does not catch to wind the product back down into the tube (as it does with the lip balm [Hibiscus].

The lip balm is really moisturising with a hint of colour. However, it does not contain any sun protection, which is vital for keeping lips protected, and therefore I keep it at home and my regular SPF 15 Carmex stick goes in my handbag for when I'm on the go. The lip shimmer is a similar product but with a tiny hint of shimmer. The lip crayon gives a more matte effect.

Really nice to use, 5 July 2016

How you rate this Burt's Bees Lip Colour collection will rather depend on how much you like this particular set of colours ... fortunately, my wife has been using Burt's products since we first came across them in Australia about 12 years ago, and likes these shades ... particularly for the Summer.The set Includes Tinted Lip Balm in Hibiscus ... Lip Shimmer in Rhubarb and Lip Crayon - Hawaiian Smoulder. They all look pinky purpley to me ... but what do I know.Moisturises with Shea butter and beeswax and nice to use ... that's my wife's verdict.
