elf Cosmetics Ride or Die Lip Balm

I am back again with an elf Cosmetics review and this time it is one of their new “Ride or Die” lip balms, a range of products which will help restore moisture, keeping lips hydrated and plump.

I am a huge fan of lip balms, I suffer from really dry lips, so need to do all I can to keep them from looking absolutely horrendous, more so because I am prone to coldsores, which are rather unsightly. From elf Cosmetics, I have the shade Boss Berry.

Each one of these lip balms is infused with Jojoba Oil and Vegan Collagen and is designed to repair dry lips as well as to add a hint of sheer wash of colour. With Boss Berry you get a slight hint of a berry scent and with it comes a sheer shade of red. 

The other shades within the collection includes:

• P.S.L (Pumpkin Spice Latte) - sheer orange with a pumpkin spice scent
• Grapefruit Goals - sheer pink with a grapefruit scent
• Cheeky Cherry - sheer deep berry tint with a cherry scent
• Tough Cookie - sheer warm caramel with a warm brown sugar scent
• Just Peachy - sheer orange peach with a peach scent
• Mighty Mint - clear with a mint scent

Packaged inside a berry coloured squeezy tube, the formula is similar to the DotCom Balms, if you have tried them. As with all products from elf Cosmetics, these balms are 100% vegan and cruelty free and also free from surfaces. On the skin they are non-greasy and definitely not tacky which is always a bonus, what I do like is how moisturised and hydrated my lips feel when it is applied.

The swatch above is completely unedited and shown as it comes out of the tube with no editing and taken on a snow day. The pop of colour transfers nicely to the lips and priced at just £5*, these are an absolute steal and I’d be more than happy to make my way through the entire range!
