BARENATURALS
Lip Stix in I Love You this Smooch
Feed your lips with this highly nourishing, color-imparting lip butter! Its yummy peppermint and vanilla scent smells so good and is safe for use even by kids as it's made with all-natural food-grade ingredients.
I got this item from Glamourbox's JUNE 2013 subscription. And I must say, do not judge the book by its cover. Why? Well, I not much of a fan of Lip Butters. I just feel like it's a lot more stickier. However, some say that lip butters have additional "moisture" in them as compared to lip balms.
As they say, this is not a lip balm, nor a lipstick. I really don't know what to expect at first but this made me change my mind. On my blog about the beauty box I received, I mentioned that I was expecting some "make-up" more than skin care. But THIS one is a little bit of BOTH.
Here's why:

I'm not a total fan of lip butters and Barenaturals, but I guess I this one caught my heart.
It has a smooth finish, though it feels like it will melt easily. The packaging is ok, given that it is only Php 148. What I got is the "I Love You this Smooch".
Ingredients: Grapeseed Oil, Castor Oil, Shea Butter, Beeswax, Candelilia wax, Carnauba wax, Ozokerite wax, titanium dioxide, Mica Mineral Colorant, Iron Oxides, Flavor Oils, Jojoba Oil, Alpha-Tocopherol, Phenoxyethanol.
It contains organic ingredients which are healthy for our lips. Also, it has no PARABEN. That's a plus! I love the color and the flavor. I can smell the hint of peppermint but not much of the vanila. At times it tastes like watermelon. Which is my favorite flavor, by the way.
I loved the pigmentation! It was not as I was expecting. Now it's one of my favorite lip products! Thank you Glamourbox! Thank you Barenaturals! :)

VERDICT
PROS:
- Cost (it is very cheap)
- Consistency and texture
- Pigmentation
- Flavor
- Proudly Filipino Product
CONS
- Size
- Packaging (I think the sticker will peel off anytime soon)
- Not long lasting (because it's not lipstick, it's LIP BUTTER)
Will I buy this again?
I might. And I might buy all the other tints as well! ;) They're good for that in between moment when you can't decide whethere you'll use a lip balm or lipstick. THIS is the best alternative.
Overall Rate: 4/5
