Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Oil: Review and Swatches

Disclaimer: The products featured were provided for review.

New for 2017, the Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Oil ($11.99 CAD) is a line of sheer lip oils with a melty and nourishing formulation. With six natural colors, the line is rich in fatty acids and antioxidants that promise to hydrate and condition the lips. To see some arm swatches of all six colors and read my review of the formulation, click.....

Packaging:
The Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Oil comes in a click-pen with a synthetic brush applicator. To dispense the oil, simply twist the base a few times and the lip oil will ooze right out of the brush. Before first use, you will have to twist the base quite a good number of times so don't worry if the product takes a while to come out.

Formulation:
Often times, "lip oil" is just a term companies use to rebrand their lip gloss formulation so I was very glad to see that Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Oil is not just an ordinary lip gloss. With a very lightweight creamy texture and formulated with coconut oil, meadowfoam seed oil, and community-sourced beeswax, these guys are super slick and non-sticky on the lips. All six shades are very sheer so you will only get a light wash of color. However, the product is hydrating and it works well to protect the lips while providing a healthy, natural shine.

Overall, the Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Oils are sheer, lightweight, and very moisturizing. If you are looking for a liquid alternative to stick balms, these will do a great job. I also think these are perfect for younger girls who are just getting into makeup as the oils provide just the tiniest wash of color that's fun and non-intimidating.
