Ultrasun Lipbalm with 30 SPF

Ultrasun is a sun care brand that I love and one of their products that I absolutely love and cannot be without throughout the year is their Lip Protection balm with SPF 30.

Although it is perfect for holidays too I use it all year round as my lips are prone to being dry and flaky no matter what season.   However when I use this balm on a daily / nightly basis (before I go to sleep and balm has no strong fragrance either) my lips are left hydrated and smooth – no dry flaky skin and a perfect base to apply lipstick – however I would advise waiting for a short time after you apply balm before you apply any lipstick.

The Ultrasun range can be found at a number of stores (however I found in the past the lipbalm can sell out on occasions so I personally always have two spare if I can) – The lipbalm is £6 but I have found the following offers  below online which I hope helps ( I strongly recommend their skin protection products too I use their SPF 50 and SPF 30)

  • Gorgeous shop – lipbalm is currently £5.10 as 15% off and free beach bag with a £50 spend on Ultrasun products – you can find this offer at:  http://www.gorgeousshop.com/
  • Marks & Spencers – lipbalm is £6.00 but when you purchase two Ultrasun products – can be two lipbalms you receive a sun essentials face and lip duo kit worth £16 (contains a lipbalm too)- you just need to add item to your basket to get it free with purchase – link to site below:  http://www.marksandspencer.com/

Thank you for looking – any comments / queries please let me know.

Lip Monthly Bag – June 2016

image

Just received my June 2016 lip monthly bag today and in case you are new to Lip Monthly  I have included brief summary below as this is my first Lip Monthly post.

Lip Monthly is a monthly beauty bag based in US which costs $12.95 per month (free shipping worldwide) you can either choose monthly / three / six monthly subscriptions – cheaper per bag the longer subscription you sign up too – although a lip monthly bag and you usually get four items one of these items is a beauty item and the other three are lip products – if you would like to see more detail or would like to sign up by using my link please see link at bottom of this post.

Inside this months bag were:

A Measurable Difference / Chrislie Lip Crayon – $13.00

Colour swatch below is two swatches and is a beautiful non sticky dark rose / pink colour.

A Be a Bombshell Lip / Cheek Stick in ‘sweetness’ – $16.00

Just one Swatch above shows what a beautiful dark dusty pink this product is but also how shimmery it is too just bit too shimmery for me you could use just slightly on top of blusher although to highlight.

A Jelly Pong Pong Lip Butter – $18.95

A beautiful nude coral colour – above is two swatches so buildable colour and creamy consistency – although packaging bright and nice too look at not great quality and paper already starting to come off.

A Peony Cosmetics Highligher – $ 22.00

My least favourite of all the products – did not swatch as would not show up properly on photos – not a strong colour but you could build up to highlight cheeks or highlight at eyebrow bone – however not overly impressed with consistency of product or colour.

All came in a zipped green patterned lip monthly makeup bag this month – each month you receive a lip monthly makeup bag and most months they are a different design.

This bag was definitely good value this month even though some of the products just weren’t for me.
