QUE HORROR!!!
I don't have ANY makeup on!
What's bad?
I did not bring my makeup bag!
What's worse?
My lips are super dry and chapped from all the cleaning and gargling!
What's even worst?
I can't stop licking my lips, which everyone knows causes it to dry even more!
I was in PAIN!
Hubby told me to purchase another lip balm. I was super hesitating because I have loads at home. But I gave in! I have to purchase one as I'm not even enjoying the date! That's how severe the dryness of my lips can get! So yeah, I changed my mind, if I get trapped in an island, one beauty product I have to bring aside from sunscreen? MY LIP BALM!!!!
What did I purchase?
This one!!!
This one!!!

Pros
- moisturizing, without the yucky feel
- no scent, no minty feel
- it helps soothe chapped and painful lips (tested)
- have so many variants to choose from, depends on your preference
- affordable
- fits the pocket or makeup kit without problem
- you can get a lot of product from this
Cons
- the cap can be lost easily if you're not careful
- that's it! :)
Nivea lip products haven't failed on me. You can see my other Nivea Lip Product by smiling and clicking here. I love it that it's affordable and yet, you get what you pay for, and more! They don't work like those top brands out there, you need to re-apply after an hour, but it definitely help soothe my super chapped and dry painful lips. I am glad I picked this up because it works for both me and hubby. I made sure he uses it! hahaha
I bought this because I planned to give this to hubby! But I changed my mind, it's now on my bedside and it's our nightly ritual to apply before we sleep. I SAID WE! hahahah I do know how to share you know! *winks*
Tips
- apply this all over your lips and go a bit beyond to protect the sides of your lips
- leave this at night so you wake up with moisturized lips
- do not twist it too long during application
- store in cool dry place, this will melt a bit if you store it inside a car or hot area
Will I repurchase?
Yes
Where did I purchase and how much?
At Watson's Store for Php89.75 (approx $2.00)
Visuals time

I call this hardened petroleum jelly on stick Why? Because this looks like petroleum jelly, works like it It's nice to have this around as my hubby can use this as well, no color, no scent and it doesn't look like he has lip protection on :)
Here's how subtle it looks

I wish everyone to have a great day!

ReplyDelete-jeSMakeup
I love love love Nivea chapstick!!! They're the bestttttt!!! HEHEHE
ReplyDeleteThank you for this cool review! I need to got this! I have the same but Cherry , I guess, ad it's red on lips it looks orang-ish, I don't like that! Thanks again!
ReplyDeletewow this looks good.
ReplyDeletebut somehow nivea's lipbalm melts after some time?
thats my experience
but my bf family buys this brand before going overseas travelling.
haha guess i'll try this after my metholathum finishes :P
I actually love the Nivea Strawberry Lip care. It gives that nice reddish color (that often times i don't need to put lipcolor on) at the same time it doesn't feel gross...like what you said with that yucky feling..i hate lip products like that...
ReplyDeleteHope you'll have a great day!
^_^
Lipstick Staiin, I would say it relieves but it doesn't changes your lip texture drastically! :)
ReplyDeleteTwin, really? Go twin!!! I love it that you like them too!!! How have you been?
Anastacia, go for colorless then :) Thanks for letting me know about Cherry!
LyNn, I think if it's not stored well...I would say Metholatum is really great! I love the mint and the tatse of Metholatum
ReplyDeleteThiemere, oohh another Nivea Lip Care lover! Thanks for your thoughts on the Strawberry one!
Argh...I have crazy winter lips right now all dry....I hear you babe it can be such a nuisance! This one is on my to try list when the Kiehl's runs low (which given my current dry lips should be any day now). ;) Thanks babe!
ReplyDeleteYou can never have too many lip balms. I have soo many in my purse, car... My fav is Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Swivel Stick or Vaseline.
ReplyDeleteXoxO
PS I need to see the dentist ekkk! I have no insurance though :(
hi sunshine! i hate buying on a whim, but looks like you made a great choice, for you and hubby ;)
ReplyDeleteSame here I have to take my lip balm everywhere!!! or else I won't survive. I'll go crazy if I forget them home & I'll have to buy a new one then and there. LOL.
ReplyDeleteThis particular one we dont have here [i think?] coz the ones here are white inside but I do like the a kiss of moisture nivea essential lip care [it's super moisturizing] comes in a dark blue tube. the other ones though I don't like.. i tried 2 other kinds from nivea & they were blahhh..
i totally und the pain of having dry lips. if i forget to bring my balm/gloss out, i got the tendency to lick my lips too!
ReplyDeleteI heard such great things about Nivea lip balms and glosses. I bought 2 glosses but haven't used it yet. :X
ReplyDeleteNivea def makes great lip balms! :D
ReplyDeleteI've been using this for sooo long!! it smells good and feels lovely =)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review Nikki! I have never used any Nivea lipbalms before!! I might try this out someday! :D
ReplyDeleteI love your story! :) I wore this a long time ago at college - in a tinted cherry pink shade that left my lips looking perpetually stained hehe...
ReplyDeleteI have about 10 of these, if not more. The Original (in Limited Edition packaging :-P), 2 different Limited Edition Pearl & Shines, cherry, strawberry, passion fruit, melon, SPF, Alpine, Sensitive, Velvet Rose, the blue one that's water based...And I think there's more XD.
ReplyDeleteI love them :). Nivea's skincare never works for me :(, but I absolutely love these ^_^.
P.S. On me, Cherry doesn't look orange at all :-/, it's a deep...Well, cherry-ish colour, but it's a stain effect, so it's not too heavy :).
Strawberry has a slight 'soft red' tint, not as stained as Cherry though ;).
Yas, we are the same! I am using Kiehl's too, but on some days I don't want to have lip balm on my fingers, I use this! Swipes easily! :)
ReplyDeleteKendall,hahahah same here! I have lip balms in all corners! hahahah I guess I'm not the only one!!! :) Oh no about insurance, I hope going to the dentist ain't that expensive!
Yummy411, yes it is a great choice, at least it's not something I would throw away :)
Miss Katin , thanks, for letting me know, at least I don't feel bad, I feel like I'm the only person who's got the worst lips! Ohh, i've seen the dark blue tube, I was so in a hurry I did not bother to even read it! :)
ReplyDeletePrettybeautiful, I hear you, licking dry lips is the worst!
Ahleessa, hahaha you are a gloss lover and you are not stopping in purchasing them! hehehhe
Fuz, thanks for saying so :) That made me feel good :)
ReplyDeleteBeeyoutiful7, really??? Wow..thanks! So Nivea really makes great lip products! Thanks for confirming!
Jenn, if you did, let me know how you like it! :) We may have different opinions :)
PB,hmm..i actually like stained lips look! :) LOL but it must be removed by end of the day! :P
I also like the stained ones. Your lips always have a nice color with this collection !! Thanks Nivea
DeleteCris, having 10 of them just proves that you love them! wow..Strawberry sounds exciting :) I may take a look!
ReplyDeleteYou can never have too many lip balms, missy. I'm obsessed with them. I even have a lip balm keychain and keep them in most of purposes. They are great!
ReplyDeleteLOL I got ya! You are right B you are right :D
ReplyDeleteI used to use this lip balm but I think I got a bad batch or something cuz it smelled really bad. and I kinda didn't mind when it melted in the car.. lol.
ReplyDeletewow you make this sound amazing!
ReplyDeleteI have never tried Nivea lipbalms. I usually stick to Labello ones as they work well for me. This one sounds really good though, I might check it out. Thanks for the review.
ReplyDeleteConnie oh no about the bad smell! that's the worst!!!!
ReplyDeleteRenRen, lol
Gio, I heard so many good stuffs about Labello, we don't have that locally! :) You're welcome for the reviews!
Labello and Nivea are the same stuff :). Most of mine are actually Labellos, except for a few Liposans, which is the Greek name >:-).
ReplyDeleteLabello seems to be the name they go by in Western Europe and North America...Liposan is for Greece, and I think most of Southern Europe...And in Asia, they're called simply Nivea :).
Hope that helped ;).
Cris!! HEY!!! Thanks so much, that's wonderful information, no wonder when i saw Labello packaging, i told myself it does remind me of something, and I don't know who duped who! It's nice to know that I'm using NIVEA which is Almost LABELLO :) Thanks!!!
ReplyDeleteHmm. You know, I've actually never tried any Nivea lip balms... I stopped trying drugstore ones after I was allergic to Blistex and Chapstick, but maybe I should. Right now, Physician's Forumla Plump Potion gloss is my HG lip treatment, but it is kinda sticky. Thanks for the review.
ReplyDeleteHave you tried lipblams by Softlips? If not, let me know and I'll send you some. After I used Softlips, all other lipbalms paled in comparison :P
ReplyDeleteCatherine, hmm..come to think of it, I'm not into sticky gloss hahaha :) Oh no on being allergic to Blistex and chapsticks, have you check the ingredients list? Maybe you're allergic to petroleum!??
ReplyDeleteTine, not yet! Is softlips that good? I think I saw them in HK but I didn't bother, thought it's just like any other balms..hey thanks for the offer, :) It's ok, I may ask someone who goes to HK to help me find it, what's the exact name?
I bought it a couple of days ago and it really did NOT work!! instead, my lips got swollen, very itchy and ive been in pai for 2 days even though i did not apply it again!!!
ReplyDeletereally anonymous? Wow..that's odd, you're probably allergic to one of the ingredients they have in here!
ReplyDeleteHello, I'm just a another passerby. This product also made my lips itchy, painful and swollen. It feels really horrible. :(
ReplyDeleteI have been using that for around 2 months already. It got lost yesterday because I put it in my pocket. Must have slipped or something. But the following day, I bought a new one since it's really worth it. Fortunately there was quite a discount which brought it from 89 to 72. hehe.Ü cheers to Nivea!
ReplyDeletehi po. is this locally available? (:
ReplyDeleteAnonymous, sorry it didn't work out for you
ReplyDeleteAnonymous, that's great for discounts, I love it when they have discounts!
Shineii, yes, at Watson's or mercury drug :)
