Lip Product Collection and Storage

I don't know when this happened. One minute I'm rarely wearing lip products, and the next I'm having to buy a third container just to fit them in! I didn't realise how many I had until I gathered them together for this post. I used to wear nothing on my lips because I thought I looked like a child playing dress up when I did. However, I wear very little eye makeup and have pale lips, so without some form of colour on them, I can look a little...  ill. The lipstick holders are from here, and I'm very happy with them. I'm able to easily see every shade I have, without having them scattered across multiple surfaces in my room. They're currently just £2.99, which is an added bonus. I'm not going to go through every lip product with you, but I'm going to link the posts and reviews to some:

Today started out terribly! I woke up late, got mascara all over my face, broke the handle on my make up storage and I have a load of spots.

In a few hours I've got to get ready for a party and I'm knackered. I'm getting into bed as soon as I come home :)

Hurraw! Lip Balms

I ordered these from Super Smoocher, a website home to 100% natural lip balms. To read a review of the website and Crazy Rumours lip balm in French Vanilla, click here.

Lime, Grapefruit, Tinted Cinnamon.

These are £3.45 each. I LOVE the packaging; the simplicity, the little image of the scent and the shape. These are oval which for some reason, really amuses me!

Like with most lip balms I've tried, these moisturise well. Saying that, I don't have dry lips so every lip balm I've tried does the job nicely.

The Lime and Grapefruit scents are more subtle than I imagined and smell like Starburst sweets. To be honest, I was a little disappointed as I was expecting strong, citrus scents which could be detected from across the room. However, they still smell great, I just had different expectations. Out of the two, Lime is my favourite just because I prefer the scent of Lime! and also because it smells stronger.

The Cinnamon one however, smells very strong! But not in an overpowering way. When applied, it makes your lips tingle like a lip plumping product would. The tint it gives to your lips is very subtle:

(Look at those freckles!) No product on top lip, Tinted Cinnamon lip balm on the bottom.

Overall, I like these lip balms and am interested in trying the other scents available.
