Burt’s Bees Lip Crayons- Hawaiian Smolder + Niagara Overlook

August 26, 2016

Burt’s Bees is synonymous with holy grail lip balm for me. I’ve also tried their tinted lip balms and shimmer lip balms and loved them all! They released lip crayons about 2 years ago but this is the first time I’m trying them. The first thing I noticed is that it’s 100% natural which is such an amazing feat.

Basics
Name: Burt’s Bees Lip Crayon
Shade: 6 shades available
Price: $9.99CAD
Size: 3.11g
Available at local drugstores and online at Burt’s Bees

Packaging

These come in pretty standard lip crayon format with a twist up. But there are a couple of cute details! First each lip crayon has a stripe that corresponds with its color and I also really like the little bee next to 100% natural. The cap is not pictured but it has a cute beehive pattern that gives it a bit more texture and dimension to the plastic clear cap!

Formula

The product contains Shea Butter and Jojoba Oil with Castor Seed oil being the first ingredient. You should definitely take a look at the ingredient list if you are interested in natural products.

The color goes on smoothly and has medium pigmentation. It’s suppose to be a matte lip crayon but it has a bit of a sheen so it doesn’t look flat at all! While it’s not hydrating it doesn’t feel drying either. When worn, the product feels super lightweight and I often forget I have anything on.

Hawaiian Smolder 429: First up is a cool toned pink. I find pinks don’t normally look good on me but I’m quite happy with this one. I think it’s a fun color to brighten up a neutral makeup look! Also the formulation makes the color more wearable every day so I’d say this is totally appropriate for the office and school.

Niagara Overlook 41: In the packaging, it looks like a rosy pink but it actually comes off on my lips as a peachy coral! I don’t actually own a lot of colors like this but it’s the color is very understated and pulls the look together. This would be great if you are lighter skinned!

 

I also have the shade Sedona Sands but somehow lost it between photographing this and when it was time to do swatches. But this color is a classic beige/nude.
Ratings
Packaging      4/5
Color              9/10
Formula          9/10
Scent               4/5
Value             10/10
Total: 36/40 A
From top to bottom: Sedona Sands, Hawaiian Smolder, Niagara Overlook
The product wasn’t mind blowing but it did it’s job well. Both colors I tried were very flattering and the formula is comfortable to wear on the lips! If natural products are important to you, I’d definitely recommend these! Otherwise, these are very good but not must haves.

🫎🍁 Don't miss this LIMITED EDITION release from @t 🫎🍁 Don't miss this LIMITED EDITION release from @tatcha! Inspired by the changing fall colors of the Japanese maple, this beautiful kissu lip mask now has a berry red tint. I love the moisturizing squalane and Japanese peach extracts. My dry lips have never felt so hydrated and soft. Definitely give this a try if you're looking for a smooth and plump lip with a hint of color. 

🍮 The packaging is also stunning with the maple motifs on the lid that makes this display worthy in any bathroom or vanity!

It has been a minute since posting 😅 the first two It has been a minute since posting 😅 the first two weeks with a newborn have been full of challenges and adjustments. But it's nice to take a break and go through some of my beauty products as a break 🤭.

Here are my top three face creams for the changing weather especially if you have dry skin!

Swatched from left to right: clarins, drunk elephant, aestura 

👌  moisturizing face creams for dry skin

Clarins Extra Firming: I love the day and night version of this cream. The night is even more heavy duty and creamy so sometimes I use the day version only 💫

It's got a beautiful scent and amazing collagen technology to plump the skin!

Aestura Atobarrier Lotion: this is a newer korean brand thats available now at Sephora. Part of the amorepacific family, so you know it'll be good!

The packaging is very simple and unassuming but I love how this soothes the skin! Its quite lightweight in texture but I used this when I was sick and it saved my nose after blowing into tissue a gazillion times a day! 🩵

Drunk Elephant Bora Barrier: im always a big fan of drunk elephant. This one is my favorite face cream from the brand. I love the pump packaging and this is perfect if you want hydration and barrier support!
