Mentholatum Lipbalms Review

Metholatum, the #1 Bestselling Lipbalm Brand in Japan has arrived in Singapore ! They are exclusively sold at ALL Watsons stores since 12 July 2010.

The Sample Store has very kindly sent me a ♥ package containing not 1 not 2 but.. 5 lovely lipbalms ! 

Metholatum Deep Moist Menthol & Natural. Both contain hyaluronic acid, avocado oil & jojoba oil which help deeply moisturize lips. Not only that, there are shea butter & Vitamin E which help repair dry lips. Sounds pretty good for my dry chapped lips eh :3

ooo colorful lipbalms ! but.. too bad the lipbalms are not color-tinted hahas xD

Metholatum Mogitate Kajitsu lipbalms are made with Real, Natural Fruit Juice & Honey !



imagine you are actually applying fruit juice (contains essential minerals and vitamins beneficial to lips and body) & honey (heals and renews lips) on your delicate lips ! yummilicious :d~ with 'em, my lips are made soft, supple and extremely kissable :x *MUACKS*

i was provided with Mogitate Strawberry, Mogitate Lemon & Lime as well as Mogitate Orange & Mango :D well, it isn't hard to guess from the pictures above yea lol

besides these 3 flavors, there are 2 more: Mogitate Grape & Berry and Mogitate White Peach. i will get 'em IF i finish my existing ones :x very tempting you know !

fyi, Mogitate means Fresh and Kajitsu means Fruits in Japanese.

with continual use, wrinkles on lips caused by aging and sun damage will be reduced as it contains Squalene (a moisturizing booster). Squalene is a highly prized Japanese supplement, extracted from plants. it is easily absorbed and pretty similar to the natural oil on our skin. in other words, you'll have baby soft lips :3 it also contains Grape Seed Oil (skin repair), Vitamins A & E (healthy lip shine).

so what's my thought after trying 'em ? they feel incredibly soft on the lips, and literally melts on the lips while applying. as you can see from the pictures, the lip balms don't look like the conventional round ones. they are oval-shaped for ease of application and able to reach the lip corners. i must say the lip balm shape fits my lips quite well :p

oh, what's the difference between the natural & menthol one ? if you love the smell of menthol, you'll simply love the menthol one like i do ♥ i like the minty cooling sensation on the lips, feels so good :3 uber moisturizing for my dry chapped lips ! thumbs up ! if given a choice, i'll choose the menthol one of course :D

as for the fruity ones, i like 'em all. they don't taste as sweet and sticky as the nivea ones. i tried 'em one after another with maybe one hour interval since i tend to lick my lips -_-" except for the menthol one. i don't lick my lips when i use menthol lipbalm. hmm weirds uh :x these lipbalms will be great for those who don't like strong sweet scents. they just have a faint fruity scent, with strawberry being the sweetest (DUH !) if really have to choose 1 out of the 3, i'll go with.. lemon & lime ! but i like strawberry's pink packaging -_-" not easy to choose that is.
