Advantages: High SPF25, cute container, cheap Disadvantages: Balm is thick, colour builds up
...time now, whatever season.
This Nivea product comes in a yellow container similar to a chunky lipstick.
It is bright yellow is colour, and has the Nivea Lip Care logo, and states this product is SPF 25 (sun protection factor 25), which means it offers 25 times the protection your lips have naturally.
The container does not have a lid, but a thin plastic cap which opens up as you slide down the handle, and if you slide it down completely the lipsalve ... ...stick to my Nivea Sun lipsalve, or until it runs out, which will take months even on daily use!
Are your lips shaking at the thought of their plumpness shrivelling up into a prune?
Well, cheer them up and buy them a lip sunscreen. It's only a few quid! ...

Advantages: Cheap, multi purpose Disadvantages: vanilla smell might not be to some people's taste
...the sun screen in Boots, Nivea Lip Care seemed to jump out at me, and at the time it was only 99p, so into the basket it went, and I thought nothing more about it until I was packing my bag and I slipped it into my handbag.
I was in Australia to enjoy myself, and previous experiences in warm countries has taught me that getting sun burnt is not fun, so I was being extremely cautious with always putting on sunscreen and protecting myself from the ... ...little yellow lipstick tube, and has protection from UV rays. Like most of these lip - sticks, it has a sun protection factor and I was impressed at how high this one was - SPF 25.
It has a pleasant smell to it - vanilla, and has no real taste if you happen to lick your lips while wearing it.
Because of it’s small size it can fit easily into your pocket or handbag.
So why would you need to wear this?
Well personally, I found that the sun ...

Advantages: GREAT FOR SORE LIPS WITH ADDED SUN PROTECTION Disadvantages: YOU MAY THINK ITS EXPENSIVE
...made by Nivea, its called Nivea lip care with a sun protection factor of 25. What’s this got to do with my joker smile you may ask, well when all this happened it was during the hot weather and she explained that the lip treatments I had been using where just making the matter worse and instead of healing my skin they was burning my skin.
The lip product itself comes in a yellow tube and instead of twisting the bottom of the tube to make the lip ... ...with the blue and white Nivea log on the side.
The price of this lip balm is £2.15, but it really does work I was amazed at the price too, but also by the quickness that this worked. Also another good thing is that the lip balm seems to last forever I have had it over a month now and it still looks brand new. I purchased the Nivea lip balm from Boots pharmacy and I am very satisfied with the job it has done for me.
It didn’t burn on open or cracked ...

... ...I did decide to give Nivea lip care one more chance and purchase the pearl and shine stuff, but my friends have informed me that this too leaves your lips feeling drier than before.
If this review still hasn't convinced you to buy something else, then you can buy this in most chemists and supermarkets, its usually around the £2-£3 mark. ...

Advantages: Nice smell, protects from sun well, cheap Disadvantages: Needs to be re-applied quite often, not very good at making your lips less dry
...sores. So when I saw Nivea Lipcare Sun on special offer, I bought one.
Packaging
The tube itself is yellow with the nivea logo on it and it comes in a little cardboard thing listing the ingredients and what it does. The tube I have is like a lipstick tube but I believe that has now changed and it is in a push-up tube. The actual balm sort of smells like vanilla, it is a very pleasant smell and nice to have on your lips. The tube weighs 4.8g.
Ingredients
... ...Dicaprylate/ Dicaprate, Ethylhexyl Triazone, Myristyl Myristate, Octyldodecanol, Cetearyl Alcohol, Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2, Titanium Dioxide, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, C20-40 Alkyl Stearate, Cera Carnauba, Butyrospermum parkii, Buxus Chinensis, Tocopheryl Acetate, Diethylhexyl Butamido Triazone, Cera Alba, Polyglyceryl-2 Dipolyhydroxystearate, Aluminum Hydroxide, Stearic Acid, Parfum (Fragrance), CI 19140

Advantages: SPF 25. Sunny looking tube. Disadvantages: Doesn't moisturise as well as others. Leaves white residue.
I am addicted to lipbalm. I apply it about 6 times a day and before I go to bed. I cannot stand having dry lips - they just flake and get really sore. Because of this I am always buying lipbalm and on a sunny day (rare around these parts) my suncare alert siren went off in my head and I thought I'd try this. I religiously apply sunscreen to my face as I have very pale skin and I've heard that sun damage is the most aging thing for your skin. So I ... ...never had any trouble with my lips burning.
The tube it comes in is bright yellow and proudly boasts a SPF of 25. The tube itself makes me think of summer.
However, when I used it it left my lips feeling not particuarly moisturised (not compared to some of Nivea's other lipbalms anyway) and it left a white residue- even though I only apply lipbalm lightly. Now, this may be fine if you're off to a beach somewhere but as I like to wear lipbalm in ...
