Is It Worth The Hype?: NUXE Reve de Miel Lip Balm

After Lisa Eldridge on Youtube said she loved this lip balm it seemed like every UK based Beauty Guru ran out and bought the NUXE Reve de Miel Lip Balm and fell in love. When I saw that this product was being sold at Birchbox I JUMPED on it once I had enough rewards points saved up! (Here is the haul where I first showed this product) But do I think this is worth the hype? I think it kind of is. I understand why people love the texture because it's not greasy, and it doesn't leave your lips shiny. It also is amazing at moisturizing just as Gurus claim. My one hesitation is that sometimes it feels a little heavy, but that could just be me and my application. Therefore, I just use this at night like a super moisturizing treatment for my lips. I saw online that is also comes in the form of a stick lip balm, which I would love to try next!

What about you? Have you tried this product? Do you think it's worth the hype? Let me know in a comment below! :)

Claire's 10 for $10 Haul


I know, I've been bad... another haul... but this one was a great deal! Everything was $1 because its from the 10 for $10 clearance deal! I thought I was in the market for some new earrings because I have been kinda bored and uninspired about my jewelry so I though this would be a cheap way to help re-inspire my jewelry habits. I also got the cute ear warmers which I thought looked kinda Hello Kitty like, no? I picked up the hair ties and the lip balm because I actually needed more of both, and because none of the other Claire jewelry interested me I threw in the French Twist thing just to round out the 10 and thought that if it worked for me, it would be a fun way to revamp my hair clip hair look into something more adult.

What about you guys? Do you like Claire's jewelry? Or do you have to dig and dig and dig through the children's style stuff that it just isn't worth it? I wait for these 10 for 10 sales and then venture in and try to find the few things there that are my style. If I can't find 10 things I usually just get nothing, but this time I was lucky!

UPDATE: The hairbands sucked, and the French Twist fell apart the first time I tried to use it, haha. So those were 2 wasted dollars, otherwise I am loving all the earrings! The 1st pair in the 1st row are especially awesome in person because I think they look sooo House of Harlow, don't you think? :)
