I probably got the tube of Pur~Lisse Pur~Lip Comfort in a Beautyfix box and put it aside for a time of need. Recently that time arrived- a day of not drinking enough water combined with extra unpleasant weather resulted in dry and cracked lips. The perfect setting for testing a new lip product.
The Good: It worked very well. The rich cream smoothed and healed my lips in no time. Using it for a couple of days left me with soft and healthy looking lips.
The Bad: All the oils and emollients don't make a good base for lipsticks. Pur~Lip made every lip color I tried slide and migrate. Not a good look.
The Questionable: Pur~Lip's ingredient list is full of good-for-you ingredients. This Pur~Lisse product is full of natural butters and oils, vitamins and nutrients. It's the fragrant ingredients that make me raise an eyebrow. Both orange peel oil and linalool have been targeted by IFRA as possible skin allergens and are supposed to be restricted when used in perfume. I'd think that if that's the case, maybe skin care products that go directly on one's lips should be just a little more discriminating.
Pur~Lisse Pur~Lip Comfort ($22) is available from purlisse.com. I received mine in a press kit from Beautyfix.
Love the picture!!!
ReplyDeleteI received this product in my kit, and while I liked the texture, the smell was just awful. Not sure if it was dated (I used it fairly soon after receipt), but it was not pleasant.
ReplyDeleteI completely hated this lip balm. The texture was too thin and greasy for my taste...it reminded me of putting oil on my lips. One of my girlfriends thought it was the best thing ever, though.
