NIVEA Lip Care Strawberry Shine Review

The thing I like most about this is the smell. I like that it leaves a red tint but find that it has little shimmery bits in it which I don't like. In terms of moistourising my lips it does a good job but I have other nivea lip balms that I prefer ( I love the honey and milk one and babylios do good tinted lip balms). Overall I will finish the tube but not repurchase.

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.

Gifted this from my sister. Standard bullet type packaging. Strawberry scented. Doesn't taste as nice I thought it would. Very slight pearly/tint on application. It does the job, it's not a fav but is decent. I prefer other brands so will not be purchasing this once it is finished.

This lip balm is really different from others, It does the same job with the same formula just with a strong strawberry scent. But overall it is pretty good

This is a lovely lip balm for no makeup days, or no lipstick days. It gives a subtle red tint to the lips, making them look healthier and more vibrant, but still 100% fresh and natural. This is perfect for when I don't have lipstick on, but still want a little something. After an hour, it simply fades away, it doesn't go patchy or leave a line of residue.

I do not reach for this product when I want hydration. No, it doesn't dry out the lips, but it doesn't really hydrate them either. It is certainly not a treatment, or for those needing a boost of moisture. Therefore, I purely use it when I am wanting a tint, or hint, of colour.

The packaging is standard $5.99 Nivea. Nothing special, nothing fancy, and the lid will probably fall of in your handbag. But what more can be expected for the price? If you are wanting something incredibly subtle for a no makeup or no lipstick day, this is perfect. It would also be great for a teen or pre-teen who is wanting to wear lipstick, as it does give a tiny tint without actually being makeup.

I wouldn't say that this lip balm provides your lips with the best hydration, but what I do love about this product is the cherry tint it gives your lips. The colour it gave my lips is a light red tint. This product has a dual purpose as a lip tint as well. This lip balm does make your lips nice and smooth, but I find my lips are still "thirsty" afterwards and I have to keep applying more an hour later.

The texture of the lip balm is very soft and creamy. This makes it very easy to apply to your lips and allows you to apply it smoothly. Because of the soft texture, this lip balm can easily melt if left in your pocket. So I would recommend to keep it in your bag out if direct sunlight. This happened to me once and my lip balm melted, so I had to put it in the fridge to set again.

This lip balm has a strong fruity scent that is very sweet smelling. I love fruity smelling products so this doesn't bother me, but this might not be the product for you if you don't like strong scents. This lip balm has a satiny type finish and gives your lips a bit of shine.

Overall, I wouldn't purchase this product again as a lip balm simply because it didn't give my lips enough hydration. However, I would purchase this as a lip tint as I did like the colour it gave my lips.

This isn't my favourite product but it isn't the worst. Wouldn't buy again. Didn't do anything to my lips. Didn't like the colour it put on my lips.

I found this on sale at The Warehouse a while ago and decided to try it out, but I'm not really that impressed with it. I had higher expectations for this but unfortunately I just don't like it at all.

The packaging is good and simple, classic NIVEA packaging - twist up tube, very durable. It has a nice design and logo on a red cap, which I like. It holds a lot of product which is great considering the price is good.

The product itself is bright red in the tube, and you can see the glitters. Once you have used this balm a bit the glitters look a bit gritty in the tube. The product is not very moisturizing, but it does give your lips a pinky-red tint which is glossy and sparkly. It doesn't last long either, I have to reapply every hour or so because my lips feel dry.

I won't be buying this again, I feel there are better NIVEA lip balms that are the same price as this one and moisturize my lips better.

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 was a long term user of this product - until recently. I found that it made my lips very sensitive, and the more I used it, the more I needed to use it. As a result, my lips ended up very red, sore, and burnt. It took several days of using an alternative, natural product for them to heal.
