The Body Shop Born Lippy Strawberry Lip Balm

The Body Shop Born Lippy Strawberry Lip Balm (Rs 395 for 5g) available at Flipkart
This entire winter I had terribly chapped lips. I can put some blame on my pregnancy and some to lack of drinking water postpartum. My mom restricted my water intake due to some old belief that it would make my tummy bulge.So I had to rely completely on the lip balms I had purchased. I loved my Lotus cocoa lip balm until I got The Body Shop Born Lippy Strawberry Lip Balm. Lets see how they are different from each other:The Body Shop Born Lippy Strawberry Lip BalmThe Body Shop Born Lippy Strawberry Lip Balm

  • Comes in a cute little tub
  • It has a non-sticky, light texture, slight tint which looks natural.
  • Price (approx)    Rs 200 for 9g
  • I love how smooth and light The Body Shop Born Lippy Strawberry Lip Balm is. It has made my lips visibly soft and smooth
Lotus Herbals Cocoa Lip Therapy

Comes in twist up tube
Its thick, sits on lips and then settles after some time, no color
Price (approx)    Rs 100 for 4g
I loved it, it has helped in keeping dryness at bay, however I always disliked the way it sits on the top of my lips

My Take

I am not fussy about packaging
I would prefer lip balms with slight tint (not overly tinted as I don’t want to roam around the house with red lips) as I have pigmented lips.
TBS one is double the price of Lotus…so is the quantity
Both of them are not much different, experience with both of them has been more or less the same.

Conclusion:
Lotus has given tough competition to The Body Shop Born Lippy Strawberry Lip Balm but I have liked TBS balm more due to light texture and fresh fragrance..

Do let me know which is your favorite lip balm ….
