The Balm, Baby!: Bee's Knees Bodyworks Lip Balm Reviews

 As I've mentioned before, I love anything for the lips. My first ever lip balm obsession came when I was about 8 and young and in love cherry chapstick. I carried it around with me just about everywhere. I loved the cherry smell and the way it smoothed my lips out. I've always had a pair of dry smackers so I suppose the lip product obsession makes sense. 

Today I'm going to show you some lovely balms from Bee's Knees Bodyworks

Lip Therapy in Margarita. First off, lime margarita to a tee! One sniff and I'm almost on vacation, haha. The Lip Therapy Balm is a highly emollient healer. It contains avocado, sweet almond and coconut oils.

This the Satin Lips Luxury Lip Treatment. It contains macadamia nut oil and shea butters to nourish and soften. It also has some mint in it. It actually tingle on your lips! It is also slightly tinted with pink mica for a little flush colour.


This is my definite favourite out of the three. This is the Lip Balm Shimmer Stick in Buttercream Frosting. Smelling sweetly of birthday cake icing! This balm keeps lips smooth and moisturized with Shea and Cocoa Butter and oils such as Macadamia nut, Jojoba, Vitamin E and Castor. It also contains a sheer golden blush for a beautiful hint of colour for naked lips. I have swatched it below. Its a hint and a beautiful hint at that! I use this when I don't feel like lipgloss or lipstick. I love how it makes my Lips feel.


Check out the Bee's Knees Bodyworks shop for more balms in scrumptious flavours and pick up a few :)

Bee's Knees Smoothie Scrub and Whipped Buttercream Review


Happy Hump Day, Lovelies, we're almost to the weekend! Today I'm happy to share with you another oH Canada! product review. Bee's Knees Bodyworks is based right out of Chilliwack, British Columbia. The queen Bee herself is Trish Nicol. She is the artisan behind these wonderful bath creations. Her products are always made with the best, natural ingredients she can find. I'll be reviewing (and raving) about two of her products today. The Cucumber Melon Smoothie Scrub: Sugar whipped soap and the Grapefruit Lime Soda Whipped Buttercream. Mmmmm-mmmmm-mmmm! Just thinking about them!



Look at the textures! The smoothie scrub is on the left, the butter cream is on the right. The textures can also give you a clue as to how fresh something is. And these are super fresh! You know the sound whipped cream makes when its just whipped? That kind of airy popping sound? That is what both of these products make when you stick your finger in them. 

The cucumber melon smoothie scrub is pretty divine. The light fluffy pink stuff isn't just good looking either. Its incredibly easy to use. You can use your hands or a scrub cloth like I did. It lathers up nicely with out using too much product. It isn't to rough feeling. It also doesn't leave a slippery residue on my shower when I'm using it. It just washes away clean. And the smell is spot on!

I was a little hesitant about the grapefruit lime soda whipped buttercream. I knew I would love the whipped buttercream part but I'm not the biggest fan of  grapefruit and limesoda together. When I took a whiff, it was kinda like having a Sierra Mist and 7-up. It was so spot on, I have expected to inhale some carbon bubbles! So I massaged it on. I'm glad I did. It contains shea & cocoa butters and is 98% natural. Not only did it keep my skin silky smooth for the whole day, I actually appreciated the smell more. Its like a different citrus burst, not lemon or orange. It was nice. 

I highly recommend you head over to Bee's Knees Bodyworks and check out the shop and pick up your own little treats!
