Today’s lippy choice was one that I loved from start to finish, one still on me now tonight, and one that I really wish I could wear again tomorrow. Yep, you’ve guessed it, I love it!

The lippy is actually a lip balm or lip butter, from Royal Apothic in the loveliest coral shade, and perfect for a Spring day, particularly when your lips are feeling a little dry.

I have this lip butter for a while now and don’t know how I haven’t used it before because it’s just so nice. Filled with amazing nourishing ingredients including almond oil and argan oil, it is just so hydrating for your lips and feels so soft to wear.

The finish, like most balms or butters, is a soft gloss with a sheer pigment so don’t expect an opaque colour. But as tinted lip balms go, I think this is the best one I have ever tried in terms of pigment, consistency and formula.

My lips feel so soft this evening after wearing this for just one day, and what’s more, they were very dehydrated this morning after being unwell over the weekend. For me, this is a real testament to how good the lip balm is because, as I’m sure you know by now, I suffer with very bad dry lips and it takes a lot to make them smooth and hydrated.

Of course, as it’s a balm, there isn’t a particularly long lasting element to it, but it really doesn’t matter because trust me, you won’t mind reapplying this.

As I’m sure you can tell by now, I honestly have nothing bad to say about it and really enjoyed wearing it. So much so, I think I might just have to try another shade soon!
