NIVEA Lip Care Strawberry Shine Review

This lip balm smells good, isn't sticky, applies nice and smoothe, makes your lips look glossy with a subtle tint and is pretty cheap, however like with most chapstick/lip balms, it actually dries my lips out. Initially it's really nice, but at the end of the day, I have really dry lips that start peeling so I only use this lip balm once in a while, and I never apply regularly throughout the day as I end up with built up patches that look kind of gross

I use to always buy this when working but not so much anymore.

It was pretty cheap, cheerful and readily available so was a bit of a go to for me.

I do remember the comments I use to get as people would always ask me what lip colour I wore and this was it so it wasn’t too shabby at tinting and I do think it left it’s mark on my lips so I cannot fault it there!

It was a nice taste - definitely very berry. It did have a sort of waxy aftertaste I would say but not terrible. It also once was quite well used tended to clump so I would have to use a tissue to pick clumps of it off my lips.

In terms of moisturising it was ok. It was good for every day use but in times of urgent need I would personally reach for something a bit better.

It’s a good preventative though for daily use but consider something more moisturising when lips are cracked and sore.

Brought some of this after my last bug my lips were so dry and I just needed something.

This was good.

It’s slightly waxy and has a slight after taste but for the price it’s not bad.

It’s moisturising and restored my lips to their former glory.

It has a light tint that’s really nice not too dark or light and made my dry white lips appear normal again very quickly.

The taste is strawberry and has just a slight aftertaste. Not too bad for the price I paid though.

It’s a handy tube that’s covered and easily twists to reveal product. I feel like I got more from this tube than a another lip moisturiser I’ve used.

Would use again.

I love how this can be a 2 in one. It hydrates your lips and it gives you that lovely red tinted moist red lip balm look.

Its a great staple to have in your makeup bag. Its affordable it hydraites and keep your lips healthy.

I think this is a great, handy product. It's an inexpensive lip gloss, usually easy to buy almost anywhere, leaves your lips moisturised and just a little bit more colourful. There is a slightly darker berry colour they also do I think, that I really like too, maybe a bit more, but it's harder to find. I only have this strawberry one at the moment. I use it mostly in summer, it tends not to get a lot of use in winter, as I'm not out and about so much and usually go for colour free ones.

I bought this product for work. I didn't want to wear lipstick but still wanted a dash of colour. My work environment was in an office with no open windows so it got quite dry and I felt my lips were cracking. I enjoyed using this little lip gloss. I found it didn't last as long as I would have liked but the small amount of red pigment was enough for me to keep using it. It smelled nice and lasts quite a long time too. It is hydrating enough that my lips stopped cracking and flaking. I would buy it again.

Price-wise this product is great. Lovely simple yet eye-catching packaging. It’s easy to apply and glides on smoothly, giving your lips a lovely shine.

I was a bit disappointed with the product when I needed it most. When my lips were absolutely at their dryest and chapped beyond belief, I found no comfort in the product. I suppose that’s on me. Perhaps if I had been using it regularly beforehand I wouldn’t have been in such a pickle. I’m saying that, I did find relief in other, more expensive, products. I always say that you pay for quality. I do like Nivea as a brand, however.

It’s great to keep in your handbag, pocket, or car.
