Covergirl Lipslicks Smoochies Lip Balm – Luv u

Covergirl Lipslicks Smoochies Lip Balm in Luv U

Hello sweethearts,

Lip balms! Lip balms! Lip balms! I think that has become the most important thing of our lives currently. This is one of my lip balms that is the one of the best things that I got from my US haul. The name and the packaging is so girly that I had to pick atleast one of these cuties and now I feel I should have picked up all of these. Covergirl is a brand that I have always had a soft corner for and then getting stuff from it made me unconditionally excited. They have these smoochies lip alms and lip glosses as well which look equally cute but I always had a preference for balms. Let’s see how this beauty worked for me.

Price: $6

My experience with Covergirl lipslicks smoochies lip balm in Luv u:

Initially these were called only “Covergirl lipslicks” and they looked a bit boring to people I guess so they innovated and made the packaging and the names more fun and exciting thereby making it look very colourful and attractive. I got the one in the shade Luv u because I always like pink lip tints which make the lip balm look very natural. First talking about the new packaging, they are super cute and gorgeous with a green bottom and a pink inner packaging which basically resembles the colour of the lip balm so you can take a quick decision which one to pick. Also the outer lid is transparent and all that cute things written over it like oxxo and smoochies and stuff. The packaging is very convenient to use and you can carry it along easily. These are drugstore lip balms so are super good in quality and affordable too. They have a very wide variety to pick from and trust me all the shades are stunning and sweet.

This is more of designed for office or college going girls who need to pucker up  everyday with something that looks natural and not overpowering too. The texture is very soft and delicate and glides very smoothly on the lips but it might feel a little waxy. It gives a very nice pink tint to my lips which looks very natural and dolly types. This could be used any which ways alone or even under a lipstick. My lips always look full and glow because of the great glossy shine that it provides. You get a sweet berry fragrance when you apply it but it soon fades out. The main issue with this one is that it won’t survive a lot on your lips, it may last upto 2 hours and then the lips may feel flaky and a bit dry but as soon as you apply it. What I really like about this lip balm is that although the moisture fades away, the mild pink stain is left behind.

-A very handy one for all the college and office going women .

Cons of Covergirl Lipslicks Smoochies Lip Balm – Luv u:

Will I repurchase/recommend Covergirl Lipslicks Smoochies Lip Balm – Luv u?
Yes for sure. I will definitely recommend these are as they great and glam at packaging, the texture is lovely and the tints are very natural but pick up darker shades if you want a nice tint to your lips and I seriously felt that I should have atleast got 4 or 5 instead of getting just one and I will want to get it if at all I can again get a haul from US.
