kissablelipsnew254_medium This week I have been lucky enough to try the lovely Kissable Lips Organic Lip Balm from Bebe Cannelle. I always use natural lip balms as I hate the idea of having any chemical ingredients on my lips. Kissable Lips is made with pure and organic ingredients, so I couldn’t wait to give it a try.

Who is testing? Me, and my 4 year old daughter, who likes lip balms as much as her mummy does!

What is it? Kissable Lips is a lip balm designed to moisturise, protect and restore very dry lips. Ingredients include shea butter, olive and jojoba oils as well as natural wax and grapefruit essential oil.

In use: When it arrived from Bebe Cannelle, the little pot of Kisable Lips was packaged in a gorgeous little bag which pulled closed with a ribbon. It looked really pretty and would be lovely as a little gift for someone. The balm itself is quite hard when in the pot, but it’s easy to remove just the amount you need with your fingers. It has a lovely mild, fruity fragrance, which is just the right strength for a lip balm.

The lip balm is very easy to smooth on and I only needed to use a small amount. I always have quite dry lips and often suffer from cold sores, but my lips immediately felt soothed when I used this. I have used organic lip balms before that have felt a bit ‘dry’ – they seem to sit on the lips, and wear off quickly. However, Kissable Lips is very moisturising and seems to ‘sink’ into the lips. One application seemed to last quite a while and my lips definitely seemed softer and smoother after using this regularly for a few days. As well as feeling great on my lips, Kissable Lips looks really nice too. In the pot, the balm has a subtle pink colour and it gave a really healthy sheen to my lips, which is great for a natural look, especially in the summer.

How much does it cost? Kissable Lips can be purchased from the Bebe Cannelle website. A single pot (7g) costs £8.10, which I think is a reasonable price – it compares well to other organic lip balms I have bought. However, Bebe Cannelle have some great multi-buy offers which make this lip balm fantastic value for money. 2 pots of Kissable Lips can be bought for £12.90 and 3 pots can be bought for £14.90. That works out at just under £5 a pot, which I think is a real bargain for such a great product. Bebe Cannelle also offer free UK delivery, which is great too.

Overall: I really like this lip balm and will definitely use it again. I would recommend it to anyone, especially those with really dry lips. It’s great for children too. My little daughter is always licking her lips and she ends up with dry skin around her mouth. She loved it when I smoothed this onto her lips for her, and it certainly seemed to help make her skin smoother and less dry.

Verdict: 5/5
