Company: Live Beautifully
Flavors: Pistachio Ice Cream, Black Pepper Cheese, and Lavender Lemoncake. The Pistachio Ice Cream has a rich, nutty scent. It smells so rich and creamy, it's not as sweet as other pistachio balms I've used, but it works! I'm a huge cheese lover and when I saw that there was actually a cheese flavor, I had to try it! The Black Pepper Cheese is seriously probably the most unique lip flavor I've ever had. It has a light cheese scent with a little kick from the black pepper.It's so interesting! When on my lips, you can really tell there's black pepper in there! Nicole and Aaron also sent me a pot of the Lavender Lemoncake to try, and you know I normally wouldn't try a flavor like that on my own because I'm not a fan of floral balms, but I'm really glad they did! The lemoncake part of the combination is super strong and so lovely. It's definitely the prominent scent and you know I love anything with sweet lemon in it! When on my lips there's a slight lavender scent which actually doesn't bother me! I really like this flavor combination! There are so many more of their flavors I want to try! They've got something for every taste, I swear!
Wear: These lip jellies are applied with your finger, so how much goes on is up to you, but from my experience I don't need to go over more than once or twice to get great coverage. These feel a little greasier than what I'm used to, but it's because it's a jelly and definitely not going to have the same consistency as a balm or one of their whipped lip butters. But it really sinks into my lips and makes them so smooth. I really love the way these feel on my lips!
Packaging: These come in little pots, the same one as their whipped lip butters if you've used those before. You probably know by now that I absolutely adore the way all of Live Beautifully's packaging is designed and these are definitely no exception! These all have an old fashioned look to them and I absolutely adore them! Each label is so fittingly (is that a word?) designed to match each flavor, seriously I love these!
Price: $6 each which I know is usually out of my price range, but for these superior products and for how much product you get, I really think it's worth it!
Overall
Pros: Flavors, Wear, Packaging, Price

Have you tried these new lip jellies yet? What did you think of them? Which flavor is your favorite?
------------------
These lip products were sent complimentary to me by Nicole and Aaron from Live Beautifully, however all opinions in this review are strictly my own! Thank you, Nicole and Aaron, for sending me these amazing lip jellies to try!
Do these have the same consistency as Vaseline or Petroleum Jelly? How do these compare to their lip butters? I may have to try one of these with my next deodorant order, which is another awesome product they offer in their store!
ReplyDeleteI was curious about that too, if they are as firm as petroleum jelly or have a thinner feel when applied because they get warm. I've tried Beeseline and your description sounds similar to that. Hoping to hear what you think since they are having a B1G1 sale now! :)
DeleteCasey, I love their deo's too, which scents do you like? I'm using Urban Breeze now and love it, I'm going to try Summer Fields next.
Jean, I tried Sunny Orchard Blossom and LOVE it! I thought about trying Blooming Cherry Violets next, but I still love the scent I got! Summer Fields sounds nice too.
DeleteThis may sound weird, but I've never actually used Vaseline before. It always seemed too goopy to me and I just never used it. I think these are thinner than Vaseline. These feel more oily than the lip butters, but they also feel like they sink in and heal my lips more.
DeleteI hope you guys decide to try the new lip jellies, I just ordered more because of the BOGO sale =).
I hope that helped!

I found them a lot thinner/lighter than petroleum jelly, but nice and creamy, slick-ish texture on my lips. They are definitely heavier with more lasting power than the whipped butters. I LOVE the scents! I do get a little greasy feeling in the back of my mouth if I lick my lips while wearing them, though. I have had the same thing happen with other lip products containing the Cetyl Stearyl Alcohol (emulsifying wax). That is the only negative. And it does not stop me from using them!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your input Becka! You're definitely a lot more helpful than I was haha, I've just never used petroleum jelly before! I'm so glad you like the jellies too! Which flavors did you try?
