The Lip Series: My Winter Lips on Rotation

I feel like I might possibly love winter, for the simple fact that I love the lip colours you can get away with at this time of year. Deep tones, rich shades and cool tones. It's basically my favourite time of the year for lipsticks.

The Beauty Post | My Winter Lip Saviour

My lips were a frigging mess for most of January, scabby, dry, bitten beyond belief and they just looked awful. I had tried a few different balms and nothing seemed to really work. I had seen the Nuxe Reve De Miel on a few blogs and I was always tempted but put off by the price tag. £9.50 always seems like a lot for a balm but seeing as nothing else worked I decided to finally cave and purchase this little pot.

I don't usually like to to review something so soon after I purchase, but this has completely won me over. In less than a week my lips have done a complete 180. I used this in the morning after a lip scrub, before make up, and just before I go to bed. My lips feel fuller, plumper, softer and smoother and I can finally wear bold coloured lipsticks again without having to worry about the texture coming through.

I use my Body Shop Strawberry Lip Butter during the day if needed, or if I'm wearing my Benefit PosieBalm I top that up, and that seems to work for the interim day - but because of the high price this is staying firmly by my bed side.
