[REVIEW] Body Shop : Pink Grapefruit Lip Butter
Friday, 19 July 2013 | 07:17 | 0 comments

This is my second time buying a lip balm from Body Shop. The first time is Born Lippy in orange flavor. This time, I (or rather my mother) bought me a lip butter from Body Shop with grapefruit flavor.

First of all, I don't like this lip butter at all. However, I still use it since my lips are dry and chapped.

There're two reasons for me to not buy another lip butter from Body Shop :
  • The smell is so strong. The first time I used this lip butter, the smell of grapefruit was so strong. Even until now, when I wear the lip butter, I still can smell the grapefruit, but it's rather weaker than the first time. Even my friend didn't like the smell too, because it's so strong.
  • It makes my lips look paler. I don't know if I use the butter too much on my lips or not, but almost all of the time the lip butter makes my lips look paler (until I should use my lip tint). What is worst, if I use the lip butter when my lips are chapped, the lip butter makes my chapped lips even visible. It annoys me.
However, this lip butter almost works like counselor. If I put too many lip butter on my lips, it'll make my lips look paler. With that, I usually apply lip tint in gradating style. It's more durable than using BB cream. And if I use lip butter and not BB cream, the lip tint doesn't make my lips dry.

If I were asked whether I would by another lip butter or not, I will answer yes. I will use the lip butter for base before applying lip tint. However, I won't use it as something like lip balm, keeping my lips from drying.
