Gels/Soaps -Bath and Body Works - Vanilla Bean Noel Shower Gel

So my husband HATES anything vanilla scented. Every time I wear this, he comes up to me and kisses my neck and says "Mmmmm you smell like cake." So I of course have to remind him it's vanilla. I love the smell and even though I can't smell it all day, others tell me how good I smell.

Lip Treatments -Bath and Body Works - Honeylicious Honey Blueberry Lip Balm
rated 5 of 5
NurseKaren 2/6/2012 4:58:00 PM

I bought this today as they were putting it on the shelves at Bath and Body Works. All I can say is WOW! It tastes like real blueberry. It is purple in color but clear when you put it on. It has shea butter, olive oil, coconut oil, cocoa butter, honey and all kinds of other goodies in it. Goes on smooth. I put it on 4 hours ago and have eaten dinner, drank a soda and licked my lips numerous times (because the flavor is to die for) and still have the balm on. It comes in Honey Blueberry, Honey Apple, Honey Strawberry and Honey Vanilla. I got them all except the apple because it did not come in on the truck. The cap and tube are bright purple and the label is gold with a purple bee and purple writing. Gotta get this one! BTW I can't taste the honey.

This is like all of the other clear C.O. Bigelow lip shines in consistency. This one tastes like Orbit Bubblemint gum. Awesome! Makes me feel like a kid again! Pretty hot pink package for this one and the Citrusmint has a bright orange package. Both are definite winners!

Lip Treatments -C.O. Bigelow - Vanillamint Lip Balm Stick
rated 5 of 5
NurseKaren 1/21/2012 11:52:00 AM

This is from BBW and is the same flavor as the Vanillamint Lip Shine only in stick form. It is just a little thicker than the original Mentha balm stick. Protects and tastes great. I have layered this with the lip balm and put the gloss on top and I hvae also put on the Cinnamint Balm with the Vanillamint lip shine over it and vice versa. Awesome mixture. I am addicted to all of the C.O. Bigelow lip products! Definitely a super buy!

This is from BBW and is new this week. It is the same as the Cinnamint Lipshine flavor except in stick form. It has no color and is just a little thicker than the original Mentha lip balm stick. Tastes great and has awesome staying power. I love it! The packaging is super cute with the dark red body and black cap. For an extra flavor.protection kick use the stick balm and put the shine over it! Awesome!

Lips -Burt's Bees - Ultra Conditioning Lip Balm- with Kokum Butter
rated 4 of 5

I bought this a few months ago at Target and I love it. It's silky and it smells clean and fresh. I think the poster who said it was gritty probably had a bad tube.

rated 4 of 5

I purchased this today and I love it. It is a lip balm that does not have tint. It tastes like pink grapefruit. So far I really like it. It has a creamy smooth texture. I would definitely purchase again. After using this a while, it is quickly becoming one of my faves and the girls at work have it now too and love it. This is definitely one uf Burt's best!

Lip Gloss -C.O. Bigelow - Sparking Apple Cider Mentha Lip
rated 4 of 5
NurseKaren 10/6/2011 3:06:00 PM

One of the 2011 holiday flavors. Very little shimmer, no color, non-sticky, has shea butter. It is great. At first I wasn't sure about the whole mentha and apple together but they rocked it. The apple flavor is more granny smith I think. Sort of tart. It's awesome.

Lip Treatments -Burt's Bees - Medicated with Shea Butter and Eucalyptus
rated 4 of 5
NurseKaren 9/2/2011 7:08:00 PM

This is a NEW Burt's Bees Product. It is a medicated lip balm that has shea butter and eucalyptus oil in it. It smells great and goes on smooth Not as smooth as the pomegranate one but not as firm as the regular beeswax. Moisturized well and stayed on for about 4 hours of drinking water and a meal. The cap is a bright green on a yellow tube and the tube has a bright green cross on it for those of you who will look for this. I have to say again I love the smell. Way to go! The price is $2.99 and I have seen it at Meijer and Ulta so far.
