As a lip product junkie, there is no way that I would walk pass the newly released Nivea Lip Butters without picking one, or two ;), up. The only review or mention about this product before I purchased one for myself was from Ingrid, or missglamorazzi on YouTube. She really likes them, and because I usually like the products she recommends, I thought I'd give it a go. I got two of the Raspberry Rose Kiss ones because I wasn't a huge fan of the other two flavored ones (they were too sweet for my taste) and the unflavored one is just too pricey for it's function. (As I said, I'm a lip product junkie, I have toooooo much to be going on buying yet another basic lip conditioner.) The reason why I got two of the Raspberry Rose Kiss ones was that it was on sale 2 for $5; one itself was $3.99, so I thought, why not. So I gave that one to my mommy.
The scent of it is really nice, I really like it. It's fresh, rosey, but not so much the raspberry flavor though. I also really like the consistency of the lip butter. It's stickier than a traditional lip butter, but not as sticky as a lip gloss could be. In terms of conditioning, I do see good results when applying this at night. But I wouldn't say it is extremely moisturizing for my lips. It's an okay lip conditioner. As for color, this looks pale pink in the tin, and I was hoping that it would turn somewhat clear when applied to the lips. No, it doesn't. The only thing that disappointed me was the color. It made my lips a pale pinkish/purple color that did not look attractive at all. This was also the reason why I decided to be more lenient and apply it before I go to sleep. I wouldn't suggest walking out of the house with this on unless you have a dark lip color underneath. I've tried many Nivea lip products before, the ones in a tube, and I much prefer those over the lip butter. It's more sanitizing and it really conditions my lips. From Nivea, I would recommend the Milk & Honey, the Essential Lip Care, as well as the Kiss of Smoothness (with SPF4). When I run out of this tin, I probably wouldn't repurchase unless the formula changed or something. But it did fulfill my curiosity. Overall, I wouldn't say it is an amazing product, but it isn't a bad product either. If you are still curious, then go ahead and get it, but I do recommend keeping track of your receipt.
