Nivea Fruity Shine Lip Care products are great. I have this in cherry and strawberry. They both smell quite nice. cherry is a very reddish color with very subtle shimmers where as the strawberry one has this pinkies red shade. On my lips, the strawberry one is sheer and the cherry one just gives me that extra shade and shine.Both are very nourishing. The stick is a bit thick so precise application can be a bit hard. It takes time to get use to it. A nice product to enhance your natural lip color. Not my number one product, but definitely a good second. I also like to mix things up to keep it new and fresh.
I keep going back to Nivea lip products. Recently my lips were feeling chapped so I opened a new lip balm that I had and used it. My lips felt like it had a definite layer of something on it and the taste wasn't very good at times. So I decided to just go for it and grab one I already used and liked. So I bought myself the Cherry flavored lip balm, for around the 3rd time
.
What's great about these balms is that not only are they moisturizing and softening but they also have a little hint/pop of colour.
In addition to those 3 things, you also get a product that not only smells good, but tastes good too. I'm sure us lip balm lovers all know the feeling of buying a new balm, trying it out and then discovering sooner or later that the taste is just awful! But not with this one!
Also, dermatologist tested.
The lip care products from Nivea are the ones that I seem to always keep around without losing the longest and use until there just isnt anymore left to use.
I am and always have been a little bit of a lip balm nut. I never go anywhere without lip balm! I can't stand to have my lips "naked". I'd always wear chapstick even underneath my lipstick/gloss and sort of use it as a base just to keep my lips moisturized. Because of my lip balm obsession combined with my preference of lip balm over lipstick anyway, I often ended up with about 20 different lip balms at one time.
Then one day, I came across Nivea Fruity Shine Lip Care while at Wal-Mart. It looked great - it's a tinted and glossy lip balm! Now it's all I use. I purchased the strawberry colour and am now on my 3rd stick since I started using it about 6 months ago. So one stick, since you don't need to use alot to get the colour and moisture you need, I found can last me quite awhile. Especially for only spending about $3-4 on it! I use it EVERY DAY and have hardly even touched lipstick/gloss since (unless for special occasions). But for work or every day use, this is the way to go. It still adds a little bit of colour to your lips while keeping them moisturized!
A little bit later I tried the cherry colour which was ok but I prefer the strawberry. The strawberry is a light red/pink while the cherry I found to be a much deeper read and almost venturing in the purple category so I'd just go with the one that will fit your skin tone better. I've seen a dragonfruit colour online, however, have not seen it in on the shelves so I'm guessing it's either brand new or only available in select regions. Both colours (that I've tried) smell great and have a hint of shimmer in them as well!
As great as the product is, with anything there comes a couple cons. One of them being you have to put it on carefully (unlike other lip balms) because if you go outside of your lip line it looks like you let your little cousin but it on for you! I also find that in the dry winter months, it sometimes but not always acts as the PERFECT lip balm so I do keep a back up of normal Blistex for the very dry days.
But all in all, I love the product! Great colour, price, and quite effective! I don't go anywhere without it!
