Winter can be especially unkind with extra dryness and chapping that it has for our lips.  I don’t know about you, but I am always reaching for my lip balm to comfort them.  In my quest to help deal with this frustrating cycle, I want to tell you about my experience using Korres Mandarin Lip Butter Sticks once I put them to the test for this review because they may be just what you are looking for.

With Mandarin oil, shea butter, sunflower wax, and vitamin E, this delectable scented lip butter stick glides on easily, lubricating the lips without silicones, parabens, propylene glycol, or phthalates of any kind.  The silky feel is instant soothing relief, which made my hurting lips extremely pleased.   I also noticed another benefit was the sheer wash of rosy and healthy plum color this duo possessed to beautify the lips.

Besides Rose and Purple/Violet, the Korres Mandarin Lip Butter Sticks also have two other shades with color to choose from, one being Pink and Peach as another, in addition to a colorless version.

 I really liked these natural lip balms even more than the Korres potted lip butter.  For one, this form is more convenient.  You don’t need to put your finger in or a lip brush to put them on.  Also, these aren’t as glossy compared to the ones in the pot form.   

Do check Korres and see for yourself how much beautiful relief is packed in each Mandarin Lip Butter Stick ($16.50).  The proof will be on your own lips, readers.
