Acquisitions

SAM_7913

I was/am on the hunt for tinted lip balms. I was gutted when I realised that we can't get Labello over here. All the European bloggers and the Asian bloggers and basically everyone but jolly old England has been frolicking amongst tubes and tubes of the stuff, in all these exotic flavours, and over here we have zilch. Nada. Aside from Superdrug's own brand which is poor to say the least.

Then I twigged that Nivea was pretty much the same thing under a slightly different name so I've taken to collecting these and pretending they're Labellos.

Yes, I am sad.

I got this in "Soft Rose". I know they had the Milk and Honey version in Superdrug but when I made my way down to Poundland I noticed that it was there, so I bought it. Cheaper. I'll do proper standalone reviews later on when I've had a chance to really roadtest these (bought them at the weekend) but yeah, so far I'm really enjoying this and am now even more jealous of you lovely Euro bloggers. Argh.
*strokes fake Labello in a somewhat creepy manner.*

Superdrug's imitation is tragic. Rant to follow. At least it was only 99p.
