Beak & Claws: Korres Mandarin Lip Butter Stick In Rose

This blog post is going to focus on the beak (lips). I have used the clear version of the Korres version of the mandarin lip butter stick for years but finally tried the tinted (rose) version when I was sent a free tube with my order. 

The mandarin lip butter stick in rose is £8 and contains 5ml. It is packaged in a cute tube which twists up to dispense the balm. It has spf 15 to protect the lips and it’s key ingredients are Shea butter and sunflower wax to nourish and condition the lips, giving long term protection and benefits such as moisturising the epidermis, reducing wrinkles and soothing sore or chapped skin. Mandarin oil to moisturise dry lips and mandarin oil to tone and moisturise the lips, reducing any inflammation.  I found the red tint to be subtle but effective. My lips looked like I was wearing a sheer, glossy red lipstick. My lips felt nourished and moisturised. The lip balm had a light texture and was barely discernible on the lips. I enjoy using the mandarin butter range but it sadly appears to be being phased out as most sites were out of stock when I was trying to purchase a new one. 


I purchased this item myself and the views expressed in this blog are my own.
