Well, except for the latest Grapefruit one, I think I bought all the Nivea lip balms available here, including the Careglosses. They all come in the same shape and size, of 4.8g, but the similarities I think end here. I don't recommend the fruity ones to anyone, they're probably good to mantain lips moisturized, but don't even try to use them as a treatment, I don't know anyone who has been satisfied by them. They're okay as a daily lip balm, but not moisturizing enough.
Pearl and Shine is really lovely, but can be too frosty and look bad if you're super pale, but I like it, it's so light and smells wonderful. It's not really moisturizing though.
Repair, Essential and Velvet Rose are my favourites and I always make sure not to run out of them. Repair and Essential are a regular lip balm, nothing too say very much, just that Essential, is super shiny, light and moisturizing but Velvet Rose.. is simply divine! It leaves a soft, dusky-rosy pinky sheen on your lips and the texture is simply.. heavenly! You ought to try it.
The one the SPF 25 is really cool. It mattifies your lips without drying them, it's light and neutralizes your own lipcolour in a second, so you have nude lips and sun protection against sun rays instantly.
They all last quite good on the lips, and the fruity one smell delicious, and taste too, but it's just that those aren't hydrating enough.They all feel soft and light, and my all time winter lip balm would be Velvet Rose. It's so lush and rich and creamy.. It protects your lips amazingly. Really good stuff.
Likes: scents, texture, finish
Dislikes: some of them cannot even be called a "lip balm" - not moisturizing enough.
