I’m sure you all know by know I love Burt’s Bees, their lip balms are my favourite, I always have one in my pocket! I thought it was about time I picked up some of their other lip products that I haven’t tried before and gave them a go.
Lipstick ‘that loves you back’ – Blush Basin
I’ve been lusting after the ‘Lipstick That Loves You Back’ range for quite a while now. As I have such dry lips I find it very frustrating that my favourite lipsticks and lip liners dry my lips out further. The Burt’s Bess lipsticks are supposed to have all the benefits of a lip balm but are still a lipstick! I wanted an everyday pinky nude shade. The three options listed on the site were ‘Nile Nude’, ‘Blush Basin’ and ‘Suede Splash’. ‘Nile Nude’ looked like it didn’t have any pink tone and ‘Suede Spash’ looks far too dark for my complexion so I decided on ‘Blush Basin’. From the swatch online this looked like a perfect pink toned nude but to be honest I was a little taken a back, as you can see from the photo above its much brighter than a nude! More a red/pink. I absolutely love the formula, it really does feel like a lipbalm but look like a lipstick. It lasted for around 5 hours and I was eating and drinking during this time so I’m impressed with its lasting power. I’m just slightly disappointed with the shade as it’s too bright for everyday.
Tinted lip balm – Zinna & Rose
As I already love the original lip balm range, I thought I’d give the tinted version a go. Pomegranate is my favourite in the original range as it gives my lips a pinkish tint so I was expecting high things from these. I went for the shades Zinna and Rose. Zinna is peach toned, Rose is pinky red toned. These are both as moisturising as the original lip balms and give your lips the expected tint. I really like these and they’re perfect for days when you want a ‘no makeup’ makeup look as they’ll moisturise your lips and still look beautiful.
Lip Shimmer – Peony Pivoine
I’ll be honest, I wasn’t overly keen to try this as I’m personally not a fan of shimmer lips. It came in a set though so I thought I may as well give it a go. It has a gorgeous peppermint smell which I really like and wasn’t expecting! It’s actually a really pretty shade and not extremely shimmery so I think I actually might wear this! It’s a shimmery nude pink that fades well throughout the day. Like the tinted balms I think this is a great option on ‘no makeup’ makeup days. I’m definitely pleasantly surprised by this!
Lip Balm – Strawberry
The other product in the set was this strawberry lipbalm from the original range. I actually hadn’t tried the strawberry flavour but, as expected, I love it just as much as the other original lip balm flavours. They’re honestly the most hydrating lipbalms and I think I will forever be hard pushed to find something I like better.
Have you tried any of these Burt’s Bees products before?

I love the Burt Bees lip balm, and the lipsticks are supposed to be amazing! I might pick one up in a nude everyday colour xxx

Definitely try out ‘Nile Nude’ as it looks more everyday colour! I’m hoping to pick it up next!

I love Burts Bees they have some really great lip balms, and the ones you have look great! The tinted balms are definitely my favourite, but saying that I’ve not tried the lipstick formula!xx

You should definitely try the lipstick formula! It’s so insanely comfortable to wear!

Yes I love the packaging! It’s really different and looks so pretty!

Really impressed that the first lipstick lasted about five hours as I always find the balmy lipsticks don’t last as well! Still a gorgeous shade but a shame it wasn’t what you wanted 🙂

Yes I was so impressed with it’s lasting power too! I still love the shade even though it’s not the everyday one I wanted , I’ll definitely have to pick up Nile Nude and see if it’s more everyday!

I’ve heard about this brand but have never tried, would really like to try their balms actually. Could use some now!

My friend from school used to use Burt’s Bees products, she was always using them. The lip balm looks intriguing. Might have to get my hand on this.

Oooo love this! I’ve never tried a burts bee product but I’ve also have dry lips so may give the lipstick a try!
Jas xx
Th lipsticks are so great if you have dry lips! You barely feel like you’re wearing anything at all, I love that they’re not drying!
PaleGirlRambling xo
wow, these are so gorgeous! I’ve tried a bit of Burt’s Bees skin care but never any of their lip products but I think you might have convinced me! You’re photography is stunning as well xx
Thanyou so much! I’m glad I’ve convinced you, their lip products are amazing! Definitely try out a lip balm and see what you think!

I’m usually loyal to the Vaseline collection but I was recently told that this doesn’t help your lips at all, so I am looking for a new lip balm and now after reading this post, I might try out Burts Bees 🙂
– http://www.roisinslatest.com
Yes Vaseline is actually really bad for your lips as it dries them out further making you buy more (very sneaky!) these are honestly the best lip products they genuinely care for your lips and make them so baby soft!
PaleGirlRambling xo
These lip products look amazing. I really like the tinted lip balm. The shades are so pretty. x
Antonia || Sweet Passions
I’ve seen these products for a while but I haven’t tried them yet! Maybe I should, after reading your post. 😀
Incredible post! I never tried Burt’s Bees products but I’m inclined to do so after reading your post 🙂
They’re amazing! Definitely worth trying for yourself!
PaleGirlRambling xo
Your ones look great! A few of my friends have these and have recommended them, so I think I might give them a go. I don’t know what shade to get though, all so pretty! X
They are all so pretty, it’s very hard to pick! Maybe get yourself a little set so you could try out a few colours and types?
PaleGirlRambling xo
I have never tried any of their products but I really love the packaging! And I have heard so much about it! they really sound fab! xx corinne
These look & sounds great – I’m a bit of a lip balm addict, I might get one of these for my collection! ☺️
Oh definitely do Emma! I swear by them! I’m a lip balm addict too, I’ve a post coming in a few weeks all about them! Hehe
PaleGirlRambling xo
I love Burts Bees products! I’ve always been a fan of their original lip balm formula!! But I had no idea they did lipsticks – that may completely change the game! Especially as you said the lasting power was good … I eat a LOT! P.s your photos are fab!
Yes their original lipbalms are the best! I love how much they’re expanding their ranges! You should definitely try out one of their lipstick they have so many gorgeous shades!
PaleGirlRambling xo
I received one of the tinted lip balms in a beauty box last month in the shade “Hibiscus” and oh my, I’m so glad I did! It’s been such a game changer for me, I speak a lot in my job so it’s so nice to be able to have a bit of colour on my lips whilst not having to top up 24/7! I didn’t know they did lipsticks too, I’m definitely gonna have to try one of those out!

Oh I’m so glad you got to try one of their tinted lipbalms so you know how great they really are! Their lipsticks are amazing, totally as good as the lipbalms, you should definitely try one!

I recently got the lipstick and I love it! Blush Basin is pretty much the same colour as my lips so I love how subtle it looks.
Oh you’re very lucky it’s the same colour as your lips! That’s what I’d hoped it would be! I’ll have to pick up Nile nude and see if it’s more my shade. They’re so comfortable to wear!
PaleGirlRambling xo
I’ve wanted a Burt’s Bee’s lipstick for so long now I really need to get my hands on one! This ones such a beautiful colour too! Amazing post!
Jess xx | jessicajadebeauty.com
Oh just do it and treat yourself! It’s so worth it and they’re so affordable too! I think John Lewis might have them on sale at the moment??
PaleGirlRambling xo
I’ll have to have a look! I just own too many hahah xxx
I love this brand too. I got into it when my daughter was a toddler. Her lips were always chapped and I wanted a natural lip balm for her. She’s 12 now and we still both use the chap sticks, she’s getting into make up so she has the Burts Bees glosses. I really like the tinted chap sticks and have gone through several!
Lovely post
Samantha xx
Aww that’s so lovely that you both still use it years later! Burt’s Bees really are a great brand! You should definitely get one of the new lipsticks for you and your daughter to try!
PaleGirlRambling xo
Great haul, the lipstick looks so amazing, I need to try it.
Wow these products look great!! The lipsticks look amazing I had no idea Burts Bees sold them. Great review xx
The lipstick is such a game changer and so comfortable to wear! You should definitely try one out!

Thank you lovely! You really can’t go wrong with Burt’s Bees!
PaleGirlRambling xo
I love that tinted lip balm! I think I’m going to try to find it. I love a little color on my lips but most lip sticks are just too much for me. Hadn’t considered checking Burt’s Bees for them before.
Oh yes do! The tinted lipbalms are amazing and so comfortable to wear! They have lots of different colours to pick from too!
PaleGirlRambling xo
want want want all of this!!
Burt’s Bees is just such a wonderful brand! The lipstick sounds absolutely perfect, though I’m sorry the shade you got turned out to be too bright. I’m a huge fan of their tinted lip balms but I’ll have to try the rest of the range as well!

You should definitely try out more from the range. It is a little annoying that blush basin is too bright but it’s so comfortable to wear and gives me an excuse to buy another shade!

I’m so in the dark about Burts Bees – I thought they only did the cute little lip balms! Who knew?

Burt’s Bees is probably one of my favorite lipbalms ever! It seems to be the only one that works well for me. I’ll have to try all of their lipsticks
