Gold
Janni Bars, Hemp and Honey Lip Balm
“I am in love. It goes on like a lip gloss, stays on through a meal, and leaves my lips plump and conditioned. It is the best lip balm I have ever used and, astonishingly, it has plumped up my lips. What amazes me is how it lasts for so long without re-application. I love the ingredients, I love the packaging. It just got on with the job and, in its understated way, delivered more than I hoped for and more than I could have expected. My lips are smooth and much plumper and I am astonished at the difference.”
“The light texture of the balm has ensured that my lips stay and feel smooth and protected. It targeted chapped and flaking lips and after just a couple of applications my lips were soothed and smooth once again. Not only does it heal chapped lips but also acts as a barrier to prevent issues such as chapping or flaking when used regularly. A balm I will happily use again.”
Silver
Odylique, Lipstick – #15 Praline
“The packaging is attractive and stylish. The shade is a lovely neutral, earthy nude with a nice shine from the bullet. The lipstick applied well and although it had a demi-matte finish, didn’t leave my lips feeling dry. Great staying power — it lasted well while eating and drinking — and doesn’t bleed. The texture is nice, and my lips felt softer and moisturised after application with no drying effects — a big bonus.”
Bronze
Gem’s Natural Skin Care, Nature’s Lip Balm – Eucalyptus
“Has a good firm texture which glides over lips and adds a layer of nourishment. I like that it isn’t overly greasy and feels comfortable. The eucalyptus scent is at the perfect level and doesn’t make lips tingle. Love the concept of the dual-purpose balm with the eucalyptus to help clear airways and stuffy nose. It helped my lips to stay soft and without any peeling or cracking.”
Life Happens Skin Rescue, Lip Rescue
“Glides easily onto my lips. I’ve been outdoors a lot, cycling and hiking and this lip balm has really helped keep my lips from drying out and chapping. It’s really nourishing, doesn’t feel sticky, and gives my lips the hydration they need. After a month they are looking much better and feel a lot softer and they haven’t been chapped at all, as they usually are in the winter months.”
