It's hard having completist tendencies. I mentioned Clinique Sweet Pots a couple of weeks ago, and mentioned that I wanted Red Velvet and Black Honey. And lo! Here are Red Velvet and Black Honey (note to Clinique, I can't resist Black Honey anything, as well you know). From left to right here are Candied Cassis, Orange Blossom and Pink Framboise, then Red Velvet and Black Honey. Basically, I'm writing this paragraph to see how many times I can write the phrase "Red Velvet and Black Honey" without wanting to gouge my eyes out. It's okay, I think I've reached my limit now.
This isn't really a review, I reviewed them a couple of weeks ago, but I thought people might like to see two more shades, particularly Black Honey, as that's not available in stores.
I really like both of these shades, my favourites from the range are Black Honey, Red Velvet and Candied Cassis, how about you?

I love a good lip balm or two (or five, or ten, or twenty or
so) and I was delighted when this giant tube of beeswax goodness turned up from Burts Bees recently, I may even have clapped my hands a little. I'm a sad old ... person, sometimes. But, there's something about the glee you get from an oversized version of a small product that's very happy-making.
This limited edition tube contains eight Burts Bees lip products:
All the products are beeswax based, but the different variations included in the tube are:
• Original Beeswax Lip Balm Tube
• Original Beeswax Lip Balm Tin
• Honey Lip Balm
• Nourishing Lip Balm with Mango Butter
• Replenishing Lip Balm with Pomegranate Oil
• Rejuvenating Lip Balm with Açaà Berry
• NEW Refreshing Lip Balm with Grapefruit
• NEW Ultra Conditioning Lip Balm with Kokum Butter
• NEW Ultra Moisturising Lip Treatment
The tube retails for £24.99, which is a saving of around £8 on buying the products separately, and it's the most cheerful lipbalm this lip-obsessed blogger has ever seen. The lip balms are good too, I've used them on and off for years (I find the peppermint-scented tin is surprisingly good on your cuticles), and I always have at least one tube on the go.
Of course, me being me, I've now filled the tube with the rest of my lipbalm collection. You know it made sense. It'd make a great gift idea for the lip balm obsessive in your life too ...
