Burt's Bees Lip Mask, Overnight Lip Treatment — Our Honest Review
Right hen, I've been testing this Burt's Bees Lip Mask after one too many wines and I'm here to spill the actual tea. This pishy UK weather with its freezing winds and sudden downpours had my lips looking like a desert, so I grabbed the number one lip scrub on our site thinking it better sort me out.
For £8.18 on Amazon and sitting at 4.6 stars from over ten thousand reviews, this overnight treatment from Burt's Bees (the lip balm kings since 1991) had big expectations. I slapped it on before bed like a proper Glasgow lass and woke up with lips that didn't flake everywhere. No pretentious bollocks, just results.
Texture and first impressions
It's a thick, rich balm texture that melts like butter on a hot tattie, not gritty like a scrub at all despite what our site says. Feels dead nourishing with a bit of jojoba oil that sinks in quick without leaving you looking like a greasy mess.
First impressions after a day battling the rain? Pure luxury on my chapped gob. It goes on smooth, smells naturally decent, and you can tell it's the real deal from a brand that doesn't fuck about with cheap fillers.
Wear and day-to-day use
Slap it on clean lips at night after their actual lip scrub and it works its magic while you sleep through another British storm. Woke up with soft lips that stayed decent even after coffee, sneaky fags and central heating blasting my face.
Not for wearing under your daytime lipstick or gloss - this is your midnight routine hero. In this weather we get, it keeps the dryness away so your regular lip products don't catch and look like shite by lunchtime.
Value and who it suits
At just £8.18 it's cracking value for how long the tub lasts and the softness it delivers compared to those fancy shop ones that cost a bomb. No wonder it's our top lip scrub - proper working-class hero that actually does the job without the faff.
Suits any lass or lad with dry, chapped lips from UK winds, central heating or too many nights on the lash. If you're like me in Glasgow dodging the rain and still wanting a decent pout, this is your new mate.
Verdict
4.5 / 5. This Burt's Bees Lip Mask, Overnight Lip Treatment is a bloody good wee winner that delivers soft lips without any nonsense. It soothes and conditions through the night so you wake up ready to face whatever pish the British weather throws at you. Grab it here: Burt's Bees Lip Mask, Overnight Lip Treatment
4.5 out of 5 from me because it's brilliant but I'm no giving perfect scores after too many wines. If your lips are a mess like mine get used to be, stop messing about and add this to your routine, hen. You'll not regret it.
