Here's a review on Nivea Lip Butter Original.
Price: P130.00
From: Free
Other Locations: Available in all leading department stores, supermarkets, and drugstores
THE VERDICT:
I ran to Watsons one time to briefly grab some toiletries then while dashing through one of the aisles, this thing caught my eye. I stared at it for 5 seconds, uttered "Cool", and dumped it in my cart. After my first try, I immediately found another awesome night treatment for my lips in this product. Didn't know that impulse shopping could lead you to awesome beauty products; I guess I should do this often! :D
NIVEA LIP BUTTER ORIGINAL IN DETAIL
Nivea Lip Butter are tins of pocketable, aromatic moisture that give lips the TLC they need. It comes in three variants: Original, Raspberry Rose, and Vanilla Macadamia.
Ingredients
I like the high concentration of Shea Butter in this product. Pure Shea Butter is really good for the lips and this product brings me close to experiencing that.
NIVEA LIP BUTTER ORIGINAL IN ACTION
Consistency is rich and smooth, just like Butter at room temperature. :D It feels creamy on the lips and has a tendency to bleed on the corners, but it feels lightweight. I chose the Original variant because it is unscented and personally, I dislike fragrance in my lip products, especially the ones I use before going to sleep.
The thing with this Lip Butter variant though is it imparts a sheer white color. It can pass off as a lip gloss with frost finish that you can wear alone or on top of lipstick, but honestly, I'd only wear it to bed. :p
I tip my hat to this product's ultra moisturizing effect: it keeps my lips protected the whole night from the freezing air-conditioning temperature. It's so emollient and makes me feel that my lips are being protected effectively that I think I'll bring this with me when I go to a certain country at wintertime. My only problem is the cap tends to get stuck.
Nivea Lip Butter is an effective lip moisturizer and protectant. 'Nuff said. This is one, affordable and accessible lip treatment for night time that I will definitely recommend!
NIVEA LIP BUTTER ORIGINAL RATING

A good alternative to Petroleum Jelly :) Thank you Ms. Martha for your review. More power to your blog.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. Thanks for dropping by. :)
DeleteI also have this but in the Vanila Macadamia variant and I only use it at night. It was also an impulse buy for me. Haha! And I ended up loving it. My only complaint is the same as yours: the cap doesn't close completely which is a shame but not much of a big deal. This is a great lip product! I've always loved Nivea lip balms. Thanks for this post! :)
ReplyDeleteI have the Vanilla variant too, but I really prefer unscented lip balms thank you very much. :D Thanks for reading! :D
DeleteFinally! i got honest review from this one!!! i've been tempting to buy their promo last time (3 variants all for less than 400php -- buying in bulk and in sale makes me happy because i bought them at lower price plus i can share with my other two sibs who loves makeup and skincare too -- thanks to me and ateng promotor hehe) i love to try the raspberry flavored one (im thinking if it is same with the balm i used to buy from TBS that is on the mini tub too)
ReplyDeleteI always do have cracked lips (at masakit talaga ms m. -- eto yung mga cause ng seryoso ka sa office tapos may biglang magpapatawa tapos ayun punit ang lips haha) i tried treating my cracked lips with toothpaste and petroleum and yes they were pretty good they make my lips pretty soft and well exfoliated =)
Since i am using nivea creme at night i would rather pair it with this balm! =)
Gosh, that 'punit lips' thing, I experience that when I get cold sores and it's not nice. :(
DeleteYou can actually use nivea creme as a lip balm, but I get that it's a weird concept because we've always seen it as a product for the body. This one is a great choice1 :D
yes ms m i tried it too after reading your post about "other uses of nivea creme" it works wonder nga on my lips!
DeleteI have one in Vanilla & Macadamia and it smells so good! I literally sleep with the tin beside me. I place it near me so that I can grab it any time and apply some on my lips. I only wear it at night because of the white thingy you mentioned XD I wear Burts Bees lip balm when I'm out since that moisturzes but it feels like nothing on my lips.
ReplyDeleteWe have the same brand preferences for lip balm. :)
DeleteIf only you made this review while Nivea was having their big sale, I swore I would have bought this! *brb crying* D; I was having doubts whether to purchase this. Now that you have written this review, I regret not buying. Crossing fingers on another Nivea sale, I would definitely buy this one!
ReplyDeleteAwwww...hope you can get your hands on one soon! :D
DeleteSome of the nivea lip balm doesn't work and some does. But this one really works daw Ms.M as per amazon review. Will include this on my wishlist since it is a must in our sunny/rainy day
ReplyDeleteIt all boils down to chemistry. Lucky for me, all Nivea products work well with my body chemistry. :D
DeleteLet me know what you think of this product when you get to try it. :)
I've tried this before. It is actually a very good one, keeps my lips soft. And this tiny can can lasts a long time so super sulit talaga!
ReplyDeleteI feel that the tin will last for more than a year! It's so concentrated!
DeleteThumbs up to it's moisturizing effect plus the deliciously smelling scent..
ReplyDeleteFor the other variants, yes, but not this one because this is unscented. :)
DeleteI want to buy this but I already have too many lip balms! Will try these after I finish my stock. I love Nivea products. XD
ReplyDeleteDitto! :D
DeleteI really trust Nivea in terms of the quality of their products. I bought the trio pack of this on Watsons and I;m very glad I did. I think it's just 200+ for the 3. Super savings right, :) I use it overnight to repair my lips. I also use it during the day if I don't want to put lipstick. :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good deal, but I only have one pair of lips vs. 3 haha!
DeleteMy lips are so dry lately from using MAC lippies. I'm gonna buy this for real. Thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteWelcome :)
DeleteI have one tin can too! Although I forget to use it religiously, it still works wonders! When my lips are too chapped, I just put this at night and when I wake up, it's already healed! My mom also shares with me and she's loving it to the point that she uses it more often than I do.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! :D This is now a staple for me. :)
DeleteHello Marthaaa! I just LOOOVE this post! My lips are always super dry (just like my skin, *sob*) and I need to wear lip balms and sometimes even lipstick before going to bed just so I wouldn't be bothered my the extreme dryness. But Nivea Lip Butter is so ideal because it's compact, effective, and affordable! Pasok sa budget ko, haha! I will buy this before going to Baguio next month for our annual event para protection sa lamig. Thank you for sharing this!! - Starr
