I battle with dry lips all my life and the hunt for the perfect lip treatment has been an adventure with numerous downfalls until I found the Kiehl’s Butterstick Lip Treatment. Plus, I swatched two out of the three shades that you can find in the range, catch the action below!
The first shade is the Kiehl’s Butterstick Lip Treatment in Naturally Nude SPF25 while the second shade was Touch of Berry SPF25. The SPF addition is awesome because you can use it as a ‘sunblock’ before you apply your other lip products too! And you can just add on more layers to get a more pigmented tint on your lips without it going patchy.
I’m personally drawn to Touch of Berry because my natural lip colour is quite dark so I love darker berry shades to give a more obvious tint to my lips. I love that it’s non-sticky and I can rub my lips together without worrying that it’ll crumble due to my dry lips. Its light lemony scent is refreshing too and taste-wise, it’s alright because it didn’t leave any lingering chemical kind of taste like other lip balms I have tried.
Kiehl’s Butterstick Lip Treatment is a supremely hydrating and smoothing balm made with a blend of nourishing coconut oil and antioxidant-rich lemon butter, as well as, broad spectrum SPF 25 sunscreen, providing essential protection from UV rays and easy application while offering up to 12 hours of hydration.
These two key ingredients give it its unique lightweight, cushiony finish.
- Lemon butter, sourced from California and obtained by cold pressing the lemon peel, is known to be rich in antioxidants. This natural butter helps protect lips from environmental stress, and infuses the treatment with a light citrus fragrance that engages the senses.
- Coconut oil, fairly traded from the Philippines and often referred to as the ‘tree of life’ , is a known a healing agent in Ayurvedic medicine that has been used for over 4,000 years. The oil, which is composed of over 90% saturated fatty acids, is an excellent “water sealer” that helps maintain skin hydration.
Kiehl’s Butterstick Lip Treatment collection retails for RM85 (4.0g) each and is available in Kiehl’s stores and www.kiehlstimes.com.my.
