Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm
Love, love, love! While I have already been a fan of their vanilla lip butter balm, the new pink sugar one is my new favorite! The pink tube, scent, and color pay off is all in all amazing. Is it kind of expensive? Yes. Do I have 4 of them in my makeup drawer? Also, sadly, yes. Highly recommend, great everyday, throw in your bag type of lip balm!
I put this on my lips, every. single. night. I don’t feel ready for bed without it! It truly hydrates my lips so much, and again, the scents they have are great! Yes, digging your finger to get product can be annoying but when the product is good – I don’t care. This is also a staple when I am in the process of doing my makeup and I need something on my lips in the mean time.
*honorable mention* Laniege does make this version that comes in a squeeze tube, I also like this product. Is it as much as a staple? No, but I have found myself reaching for it a lot more recently. For some reason I still like the potted ones better. However, I do feel like the squeeze tube one gives off more color (specifically the berry shade) so it’s great for a going out lip!
LOVE! This was actually something I was influenced by Tiktok and for right reason, because this product is gold! When I first got this product, it was very different then anything else I had in my collection. It has a clicker at the bottom to move the product up (kind of satisfying), and goes on the lips smoothly and is so pigmented! My personal favorite is the color Rose, and I also think the lip plumping version is also good and doesn’t make your lips feel like they are on fire. I use this primarily when I have my makeup done and am going out!
