Hey Lovelies!
The other week I
purchased a chubby stick, as did my mum, in Boots on a complete whim. As I said
in my Haul video we were tempted into purchasing one each to get the free pouch,
which I have no need for!
I chose the shade 05
Chunky Cherry and my mum chose 07 Super Strawberry. Chunky Cherry is more of a
hot pink where Super Strawberry is more of a natural pink but is still quite
bright.
On the Clinique website chubby sticks are described as follows…
“Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm
is a lip treatment with sheer colour that relieves dry, cracked lips and
provides immediate moisturisation. The unique pencil-style applicator provides
easy to apply sheer soft lip colour and rolls up for ease of use.”
In all
honesty, this product is a luxury glorified tinted lip balm! It does kind of
provide moisture however it also wears away easily so I feel like I have to
constantly reapply, but I tend to do this habitually with any lip product!
The
colour pay-off on the lips isn’t very strong but I didn’t expect it to be, with
it being a balm.
I think
the best thing about the chubby sticks is the pencil-like applicator, it means
when applying it on the go, you don’t have to use your fingers, which I
personally don’t like having to do, especially on public transport, the
germaphobe that I am! Also it means more precision in the cupids bow.
The stick
does twist up, so you do have more product in there, but I really don’t think
it’s worth £16. It isn’t the worst lip product I’ve ever bought, but it’s not
the best, and I won’t be repurchasing it, I think it will just be one that I chuck
in my bag to use on the go!
Have any
of you tried the Chubby Sticks yet?
Love
