Eva Lip balm in Blackcurrent burst - review
Price: Rs. 75 for 8 gms
Available at: most supermarkets. I believe this is available in a couple of other variants as well like classic vanilla, strawberry bite, tangy orange & plum sparkle.
What I liked:
1. The color - a sheer blackish berry purple mix. It is an interesting color with silver shimmer.
2. SPF 15
3. It has very, very fine micro shimmer in silver that doesn't show up so obviously on the lips. It just gives a nice shiny look.
4. I also liked the cute slide packaging.
5. It claims it is 100% vegetarian. I'm not sure now, are my other lip balms non-veg??
What I didn't like:
1. The absolutely horrendous artificial smell of this thing. It makes me wanna gag each time I tried to use this
See that silver shimmer glistening.. |
Would I re-purchase: No way. Not this variant, nor any variant. This product had such promise - amazing shade - berry purple, with silver shimmer. Only if it didn't smell so horrendous. I have this entire tub with me now & I just can't bear to use it.
Eeks.....Bummer...it was so cheap and so cute too!!!
ReplyDeleteLooks very pretty. I guess that is the only plus point eh? Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI have this one in pink shade, it doesn't have any shimmer in it, butt its pretty ok. Nothing great. Just ok......even I wouldn't repurchase.
ReplyDeletei wonder if these are available in england?
ReplyDeletei dont like that it appears quite unhygenic as u have to use ur finger all the time and when u open it the whole thing is exposed hmm, thats just me

Oh what a lemming, bad smelling /tasting lip balms is just unbearable. You should try The body shop passion berry lip balm, similar shade with a hint of shimmer, smells good & keeps the lips in good shape
