AMW Reviews: Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Color Balm

I fell in love with the Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Color Balm the moment I laid my eyes on them!  I first saw them at Clinique counter but didn't get the chance to try the testers because I seldom do! :)

I told myself: "Great!  I need to find my big-holed sharpener for this!"

(Totally clueless girl, I know!)

What a big surprise when I read online reviews on how moisturizing this lip color balm is, but also how it's wonderfully packaged like a crayon minus the sharpening!

Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Color Balm says ---

Super-nourishing balm is loaded with mango and shea butters. Just what dry, delicate lips need to feel comfortably soft and smooth. Eight natural-looking lip tints in all, each with a subtle sheen.

AMW says ---

Pros

• Super cute to look at, packaging is the same shade as lip balm shade.
• I never have to sharpen it as the product can be swiveled.

•  Doesn't dry out my lips!  Can be applied even without lip balm. 
•  Very natural to look at no matter what shade you choose.
• Though a tinted lip balm, it is a bit more pigmented than regular tinted balms.
• The shade stays longer than other tinted balms.
• Doesn't dry out my lips.

Cons

• Colors aren't that bold if you are someone who are looking for boldly colored lip product.
• A bit pricey if you aren't used to shelling out more than Php500.00 for a lip color balm.

Overall
Clinique made a perfectly packaged lip product plus the texture and color is amazing!

Tips

• Always store in cool, dry place.  Do not leave this inside the car as it may melt.
• Even with it's perfect "crayon" shape, I strongly suggest to still use a lip brush if you plan to apply this to others.
• You can outline your lips first prior to filling in the rest of your lips.
• You can use this as a balm underneath by dabbing a bit of the moisture with a napkin then re -apply with similarly colored lipstick!  The Clinique Chubby Stick can amplify the color of your lipstick plus it protects your lips from drying.
• Always swivel back the lipstick before you close the cap to prevent lipstick accidents.
• For weddings: I like applying a lip liner all over the lips on bride for longwear, then top with the Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Color Balm for a very nice, and natural wedding day look!
  

Will I repurchase?
Yes!  In other shades.

To whom do I recommend this to?
Those who like natural colored lips with loads of moisture!

Where to purchase and how much?
At Clinique counters for Php960.00 (approx $22.30).

 Shade is named even on tube

07 Super Strawberry

 On packaging, the color reminded me so much

of a "matte bright red" crayon

Don't let the "look" deceive you! 
With once swipe, it shoes a nice reddish tint

Applied on lips 

I know my lips are still dry but considering on HOW DRY my lips originally are

well, it looks way much better with the help of the Chubby Stick!
