two cups of tea

 Hello,

my indecisive nature took over once again. Since I couldn't decide on just one shade I picked up two :) I have tried some of their moisturisers and I liked their products so I have decided to try lip care, it looked promising.

They are Teaology tinted lip treatment lip balms. The packaging is trying to mimic the shade inside.

 

 

They are housed in a beautiful metallic lavender/pink case which feels very heavy. It makes them stand out and look luxurious.

I picked Rose Tea and lighter hue is Peach Tea. They are both shimmer free and have beautiful tea with sweet lemon and drizzle of honey scent to it. Very unique and lovely, I really like that as well.

They look almost juicy on the photo above and I think I picked really good shades.

First swatch is Rose Tea and it is barely visible, in the lip balm world and for me that pigment is more than enough. Nourishment and hydration is vital for a lip balm, added color is just a bonus. It is a darker nude which adds color to the lips but when my lips appear naturally red it tones them down. It is a really nice shade for me.

Peach Tea appears bright pastel peach and I love this color if only it would translate to the lips. On the swatch is barely visible, just a bit of shine gives it away.

In general they don't have a lot of shine, I would prefer more. Only Rose Tea shows up and I love the shade but I guess when I don't want additional color I would reach for the Peach Tea.

The scent is definitely my favorite and I wish more brands would adopt it in their lines.

Over the line I would really like them but unfortunately I don't notice any nourishing or plumping effects. If I apply them on dry lips they will stay dry, they make no difference and that is really bad.

I will try to use them up in the course of next year just to finish them up but no matter the lovely coloring of Rose Tea, no matter the awesome scent they don't nourish my lips which is the most important thing.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day
