Product Review: Arbonne 'Kiss at Midnight' Lip Conditioner Trio

Hi! For my first blog post, I have decided to do a product review on the Arbonne Lip Conditioner Trio. My mum received this as a Christmas present, but she's not a big fan of lip conditioners or any type of lip balms so she gave this to me. Looking at this, I had no idea what it was, since I had never heard of the brand before but I'm always keen to try new products, so I decided to give these lip conditioners a try.

This product comes in a cardboard box and inside, there are three thin tubes of the lip conditioner. Looking at the cardboard box, it claims to be recycled which I already like. The lip conditioners are made in USA from globally sourced materials. It also claims to be dermatologist tested. Looking at these claims on the box sold me instantly!


The website says that the main ingredients are:
•lemon oil
•meadow foam seed oil and
•moringa oil.
Each tube has 9.35 grams of product which I think is a decent amount.
In order from left to right: pink, peach and berry.

In the box, there are three colours. There is pink, peach and berry. All these lip conditioners have a sweet citrus smell which I love! They also apply really easily onto my lips and don't feel sticky at all. These last on me for about 30 minutes, then I re-apply another later. The shine is really nice which I did not expect as I thought that these would appear matte, judging from the way they looked in the tube.  Something I don't really like about these lip conditioners is that when I decide I no longer want the product on my lips, for example when I have lunch, I wipe off the product and it leaves my lips feeling a bit dry. I'm not a big fan of this but I can deal with it.

These swatches show what the lip conditioners look like when I just squeeze them out without spreading them out. On my lips, they look much sheerer since my lips are quite pigmented,

My favourite colour out of the three is berry, which is the darkest one, I think it goes well with my skin tone and looks good when I do or don't have makeup on. It enhances the colour that I've got which I like. I also really like the pink one because it appears almost clear on my lips. The peach one is my least favourite as it has more glitter in it then the others do. It also looks a bit strange if I wear it without makeup, and the brown colour sinks into the lines on my lips.

Final decision
The positives:
•gives a natural shine to the lips.
•is not sticky.
•feels smooth, just like lip balm but with great colour.

The negatives:
•only three colours to pick from.
•not easily accessible in Australia.
•leaves the lips feeling quite dry.
•the price.

Rate out of 5:
I would rate these lip conditioners a 4 as I think these are pretty good. They do the job well, provide natural colour and are easy to apply.

Would I purchase this?
I would purchase these again, only if they were available in stores in Australia and more affordable.
