How to Make Korres Lip Butter Even Better

Julie Marie
I was introduced to Korres line this summer and they are starting to become one of my favorite makeup line. One of their most popular product is their Lip Butter--people have at least 5 of these and I wonder these butters are huge how on earth will they ever get around to finish one? I have only one lip butter in Pomegranate which is a "sheer coral" (Sephora.com) and I look forward to buying it again in other colors. This stuff feels amazing--I can't stop rubbing my lips together and it adds a little color. The lip butter is not sticky and does not leave a waxy feel on your lips. It's a great perennial product that I can carry from summer for a hint of color and for winter to over come winter dryness.

They come in 7 different colors: Quince, Wild Rose, Plum, Pomegranate, Jasmine, Guava, and Mango.

Contains no
- Parabens (all)
- Sulfates (all)
- Synthetic Fragrances (Guava, Wild Rose, Quince, Pomegranate)
- Synthetic Dyes (Wild Rose, Quince, Pomegranate)
- Petro-Chemicals (all)
- GMO (all) I like:Long lasting moisture - When my lips are chapped or dry, as soon as I apply, I feel my lips are finally sighing.Green product - Korres products are about 90% organic and don't use chemicals.Lot of product in a tub--0.21 oz.

The main ingredients are:
-Shea Butter: Deeply hydrates and softens lips.
-Rice Bran: Helps to seal in the treatment benefits for long lasting hydration and comfort. (Sephora.com)

The following things I'd like to change:

1. More pigment please! I wish this product was more pigmented because they suggest that you can put this on your cheeks. I've tried this a few times but the color doesn't show like a Tarte CheekStain.

2. I wish they offered this in a tube too. I like the idea that it comes in a pot because it holds a lot of product but it's not very convenient if you want to put some lip balm during class. Also having it in a pot is house for bacteria from you fingers. To minimize the bacteria in the pot I use a q-tip to get the product and put it in my fingers to apply. The disadvantage of having it in a pot is that it's not very mobile.

3. I'd also like to change by having some of their lip butters with SPF.

It retails 9 dollars per pot which is kind of pricey for a lip balm but I recommend buying their gift sets which ranges from skincare to cosmetics. I love buying their gift sets because for cosmetics you do get the full size product and for the skincare set you get generous samples which is more for your money. The first Korres product I ever bought was a gift set called "Love Your Lips" which came with three full size Cherry Oil Lip Glosses and one Lip Butter for only 29.50-if you bought them individually it'd be 57.00 dollars. But 4 Korres Products for 29.50? What a deal! Gift sets from Korres are great way to be introduced to Korres products and a way to save money.
