Instant Smooth Crystal Lip Balm- Clarins
This appeared in my Ebay purchases and gosh isn't it stunning? The colour and the packaging just made me fall in love with this baby. I managed to snap this up for about £8. I have been using this every day since I bought it. The shade is crystal violet, yum.
From the picture you can see there is a lipstick centre with an outer balm. Now this is my kinda thing! I tried the Revlon Lip Butters and didn't get on with it. I tried the L'oreal twin and loved it! But my love for this Clarins lip balm has taken over! I've become a right sucker for Clarins products too.
I think these are limited edition also..shh! Grab one while you can :) you won't regret it!

Fake Benefit
It pains me to write this post, it really does. But I feel it's something that may help people in the future. A couple of days ago I went on Ebay and searched for Benefit products as I have also wanted to try items from this brand and wondered if I could get them any cheaper. I thought I was lucky in the fact I found some, I was wrong and this is why I'm posting this. When I bought these products it did run through my mind, with the price- are they fake? Well yes, they are. After reading about it I know they are and have emailed the sellers, but no replies. Here are the two products I bought and how they are spotted as fake.

The box is wonky on the base, and doesn't fit together properly.
The colours are wrong, this is my box and I'll link the real deal below.
Complete give away as this is pink and not red.
You can't peel here.
This is the product inside, I actually thought it's quite a nice colour.
But it didn't transfer that well.
This just shows that you can't sneak out and buy an expensive brand for cheap. Yeah I like the colour of this product but I'm unsure of using it as can I trust what is really in it? I'm pretty sure that I don't want to risk it, the product is fake, the ingredients list can be fake also.
Along with this I always purchased Lemon Aid, so I will do a blogpost on this as well. I hope this may help some of you. Any questions please feel free to comment.
