Bobbi Brown Luxe Liquid Lip High Shine
Plumping & anti-aging, the colours seem flattering on all of the varied skintones at our table at the ChickAdvisor showcase. They are definitely a splurge item at $42 though.

eos Organic Smooth Stick Lip Balm in Strawberry Sorbet
It feels very much like the sphere shaped EOS but in stick formula which I prefer. It has a nice scent and is a decent price at $6 for two tubes. Bonus that they are organic too

At 15 bags for $10 it is on par with other higher end bagged teas. I probably wouldn't get it for just black as I bulk buy loose but they have some flavours that are great

Nude by Nature Flawless Brush
The brush was the best of the Nude by Nature products we tried at ChickAdvisor. It is the perfect density, soft and fluffy at the same time. The ld from the tube it comes in doubles as a stand too.

Nude by Nature Touch of Glow Highlight Stick
We tried Rose at the ChickAdvisor showcase and it just doesn't work as a highlighter for me. The pink is too dark for me and the glitter seems a bit chunky. It mentions it is sheer but seems quite pigmented.

It would probably be better on light-medium skintone

Neutrogena Hydro Boost Multivitamin Booster
Neutrogena Hydro Boost is nicely hydrating but you can feel the glycerin in it when first applied so you do have to wait to apply makeup until it fully absorbs/dries. At $25 it is on par for most serum products at the drug store

As someone who suffers from coldsores when stressed or hormonal, I will try anything not to get them. I have been using Lipivir for a few very stressful weeks and no coldsores. It is one of those things that you can't tell if it worked, because you don't know if you would have got one. But with all that is going on in my life right now, a very good indication that it works.
It does make your lips pucker a bit and feel almost numb and rubbery when first applied, so do wait the full five minutes before applying lipstick.
It is quite pricey, but so are medications to treat coldsores and a little goes a long way. The tube seems small but there is plenty of product left after using it twice daily.
The taste is more bitter than pure lemon, but is gone before the 5 minutes it recommends you let the product dry on the lips.
I received this free as part of the Chick Advisor Product Review program

** Tried as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club
I was already a huge fan of eos Spheres when Chick Advisor sent me these to try. I find that mint lip balms can leave my lips feeling great now but more dry later and this was not the case with Sweet Mint.
They are not super moisturizing if you have cracked or really dry lips and would probably benefit from a medicated lip balm but are great for everyday use. The only downside if they get hard to use towards the end of the sphere unless you use a finger to apply and the crack where they open tends to collect dirt and fluff.
