Revlon Sweet Boutique Lip Butter Giveaway

Today I want to tell you about the amazing Sweet Boutique Lip Butter giveaway that Revlon ran a few weeks ago on Facebook.

The app on Facebook showed an illustration of each colour Lip Butter displayed in a jar like you would find in an old fashioned sweet shop.  Each day Revlon would give away 100 Lip Butters from one jar.

Shortly after the Sweet Boutique was closed I received an email to confirm I had won a Lip Butter in Pink Truffle.

When this arrived and I opened the envelope I was delighted to find that Revlon had kept the Sweet Boutique theme going.

Inside the envelope was a striped paper bag like you would get from an old fashioned sweet shop, which was sealed with a small Revlon Lip Butter Sweet Boutique sticker.  When you opened the bag as well as the Lip Butter there was also some sweeties included (a blackcurrant chew, a boiled sweet and a mini packet of love hearts!).

Even the actual Lip Butter itself was sealed in a packet that made it also look like a sweet.  This really made me smile and was a great little giveaway, well done Revlon!

Balance Me Balancing Face Moisturiser

I hope everyone has had a lovely Christmas and have not eaten too much!  After all the festivities today’s product may be just what you need to help revive your skin.

Balance Me is a range of natural products which are paraben and sulphate free (I’m not entirely sure what these things are but I think they are chemicals you’d probably prefer not to have in your cosmetics if possible).

The product that I have been using recently is their Balancing Face Moisturiser.  This is part of the Daily Essentials range which promises to smooth, calm and hydrate.  I received a 20ml sample of this free with a magazine earlier this year.

This is a light cream which melts into the skin quickly.  I suffer with dry skin in the winter as well as redness across my cheeks and this helped to calm the redness, hydrate the dry areas and left my skin feeling really nice.  You don’t have to use very much at all so this is a long laster. 

There was a slightly unusual smell to this cream (maybe because its natural and no artificial fragrances are used) but this wasn’t unpleasant just not a usual face cream kind of smell.

Balancing Face Moisturiser is available from the Balance Me website https://www.balanceme.co.uk/ priced at £6 for 10ml, £11 for 20ml or £24 for 50ml.
