I know that I am not the only girl out there who does not like lip gloss. Although I like the color options it gives me, I am not a fan of the stickiness of it. I am a chapstick girl. Always have been, always will be. Enter Burt’s Bees Lip Shimmer. It combines the color options and shiny look of a lip gloss with the minty taste and healing capabilities of Burt’s Bees chapstick. Without being sticky. This is one of those items that I will have with me at all times, no matter what I am doing. Peony is my current fav…
A word to the wise: I have learned from personal experience that dogs, especially those of the wiener variety, LOVE the taste of Burt’s Bees products, be it lip shimmer or chapstick. I have lost many a tube to wiener dogs in the past. And yes, they will raid your purse to get it, its that good.
so i adore burt’s bees and have tried the tinted varieties in the past but haven’t had any luck finding THE color for me, you know what i’m saying? what’s the peony like?
i think i look best in cooler, berryish colors (orangey shades notsomuch) – any suggestions? :o)
thanks melis!
ps: i’m a grad student too and have been lovin your posts. keep em up girl!
@MichelleG Thanks for the support! The peony lip shimmer is not as dark as it looks in the pic, I promise. It goes on a lot lighter. I like it because it goes on just slightly darker than my natural lip color. The watermelon color is also a good one, if you are looking for berry shades. My sis has that one and I have borrowed a few times, it is probably my second choice. If you wanted a little more color the rhubarb is really pretty too.
