MMM ... Guava lip balms! I love my Korres Guava lip butter :)
I've always been interested in The Body Shop lip balms but I never knew if it was worth the $8. Thanks for the reviews!
Sedu huh? I don't think I've ever heard of them before. I'll go check that out. Thanks for the tip! :) The Conair Wet/Dry straighteners are awesome...but my sister stole mine. :( haha
You know, I've always wanted to try their lip balms, but have just been too afraid to because of the price. =/ That's like their major down fall
oh yeah, that's another thing, I don't like lip balms that are in tubs becuase the product gets under my finger nail =/
But I got your email, thank you~! :D
those TBS lip balms are cheaper here in Malaysia, I think. How weird! Maybe I just got a different one. My fave is the Mint and it came up to (after conversion) 5 USD :-/
