The Body Shop: New! Lip glosses ~ Review

I have always been a lip balm and lipstick kind of girl.  I was once very fond of lip glosses until a certain brand discontinued their colour and I never went back - until today.  These will change me back into a lip gloss crazed fan.

The Body Shop has launched 11 new delicious lip glosses (12ml, $10 each) that might create a new addiction where you will want the whole collection.  They are high glossy sheer shades that are non-sticky and light weight.  The new formula in the lip glosses are enhanced with vitamin E and B5.



11 shades:
Cocoa
Coconut
Lychee
Mango
Mint
Peach
Pink Grapefruit
Plum
Raspberry
Strawberry
Watermelon

When you have these many shades made it was so difficult to choose which one to start with...(ok, maybe I knew which one to start.)  I went straight for the coconut and immediately fell in love.  Then I tried the mango, lychee, cocoa, and plum - they are all just as good as the coconut.  I love the scent.  I made me think of summer weather and cocktail drinks I should be holding.  As an experiment, I combined the mango and lychee (both my favourite fruit to each during the summer) and just made my lips more glossy and the smell is divine.  Yup, it is so much fun mixing them up to see what fruit salad you might like to have for this summer.

The virgin coconut oil comes from the Community Fair Trade from Women in Business Development Initiative in Samoa.

    These sound really lovely! I think I'd enjoy the Raspberry and Watermelon the most but it would be fun to combine them like you did and create your own!
