ChapStick Strawberry

Believe it or not this is the very first chap stick that I bought with my own money. I used to have one, but it was given to me. I don't know why I haven't reached for this when I seldom see it in supermarkets and department stores. I guess I wasn't a huge lip balm user before, until now. My lips have been a little dry and dull recently so I started to care for it more. At the moment, I am finding myself loading my lips with lip balm all the time, well unless I'm out, but when I'm at home I always have it in my pocket, and it's so worth it.

ChapStick info and ingredients list

This is in classic strawberry, and has a very faint strawberry scent but mostly mint, like how carmex smells. The packaging is pretty basic, twist-up, and looks the same as the other chap sticks but the color is red. The stick contains 4grams of product and only has an SPF of 4, which to me is really not enough, so I use it, mostly during night time. 

The stick is red and adds a very subtle tint on the lips, so if you're looking for a tinted lip balm this is not the one to go for. The consistency is not very thick, unlike the carmex, and I can rub it on my lips as many as I want, and it won't deposit a ton of wax on my lips which I like! It's not very greasy as you can see on the swatch below so I prefer this over my other lip balms.

I love this lip balm a lot, and I use it everyday. I didn't use to apply lip protectant underneath my lipstick, but I do now, and it makes a lot of difference. I have learned my lesson when I had an allergic reaction on a Revlon Renewist Lipcolor! I had rashes all over, and I still have these tiny whitehead-like bumps on my lips, until now. My sister and I experienced the same allergic reaction, and it was a nightmare! I thought I would have avoided it if I only protected my lips :(. Since I started applying lip balm everyday, my rashes are slowly healing, and the bumps are going away, which really made me happy. The only thing I don't like about it is the waxy taste. Other than that, this product is really a good value for your money.

My verdict: 4 STARS!!! My lips have been very smooth and hydrated since I started using this lip balm a little over 2 weeks ago. I apply before I go to bed, and I wake up with supple, pinky lips.

Watson's Magic Lip Balm Swatches and Review

Watson's Magic Lip Balm

I have used this lip balm since 2004 and I just love it so much. The protection that it gives to the lips is just great at SPF30. I always use this during the summer and on the beach and I've never had issues with dried up, sun burned, or chapped lips because of too much exposure to sunlight before thanks to this product. It doesn't only protect the lips from UVA and UVB rays but it also gives the lips a fresh and pinkish tint. It works just like the Lip Ice Sheer Color Lip Conditioner but it has higher SPF and it's cheaper! This product contains vitamins A, C, and E to provide antioxidant benefits and deep moisturization to keep the skin soft and healthy. I got this for P99 at Watson's for 2grams of product. I have a few lip balms but this is my go to lip product when going to the beach during the summer. No need to bring a lip tint and a lip balm because this product has them both.

Aside from the protection and the tint, I also love the smell of this lip balm. It has a strawberry scent that makes the application more fun. Also it's long staying and doesn't feel greasy at all like other lip conditioners. If I am feeling lazy, I grab this anytime and I am all set :). I seldom see this available at Watson's and I have been searching for this lip balm for awhile now and at long last I saw it being displayed at the counter last week so I guess it only comes out during the summer. So if you love this product you better buy more than just one like I did lol. 

Above is a swatch of me using this lip balm on my lips and you can see that it appears like I have a lip tint on. It actually looks more pinkish in person but the flash on my camera washed it out a little :(. 

It does work like magic and I give this lip balm 5 STARS!!! Have a wonderful day everyone! Hope you liked this review.
