I just returned home from a long day. A friend of mine is
looking for a house so of course I had to go.. Le sigh. I also went to the
optometrist today, turns out my number has increased and I would need toric
lenses which by the way are fucking expensive!! Anyway here’s a mini review I
wrote on Lip Ice because I thought would help me relax.
I bought this at the local chemist for Rs.120. Ok, so I’m
not quoting the details on the package, here’s a photo instead. Because I’m
lazy.. Yes I am.
When I first heard of Lip Ice two months ago, my first
reaction was, wtf is “Lip Ice” why would someone call it that? SO a week ago
out of sheer curiosity I bought a tube and found out. Well, I found out once I
read the ingredients lol! I mean it said camphor and menthol so I was like duh!
That’s why!
Now, the name is totally fitting. As soon as you apply this
stuff you feel the kind of tingling and coolness you feel when you apply Carmex
(which I totally recommend btw!) It moisturizes your lips really well and it
has SPF! BONUS!! It also has a nice albeit typically artificial blueberry smell.
The smell is not overpowering or anything though, and goes away in time.
I’m in love with this balm, its chapstick form makes sure
you don’t get your grimy fingers in there, not that you guys have grimy fingers
but you know what I mean, right? It has graduated to being my number one lip
balm! I wear it under my lipstick and before bed after my lip scrub ritual. My
Carmex and Body Shop balms are probably planning an assassination from their dark
little drawer. Don’t worry babies I love you too!
I see this lip balm being very good for summer use, with the
cooling and sunscreen properties it has. I’m not quoting any pros and cons
because dude, seriously, I’ve been quoting all my pros and guess what..
THERE ARE NO CONS! Why is it so good? I don’t know! But it
is! It may have something to do with the fact that it’s from Japan… Those guys
can do anything!
That’s my review, hope you enjoyed it! Lip Ice is also
available in lemon, strawberry, orange.
