Marks and Spencers Shea Nut Lip Butter

The M&S folks sure know their marketing.  Found these at the billing counter kept in a neat row - perfect to pick up and add to the bill.  Small enough to carry around in the bag but not so tiny that it gets clumsy to open or difficult to find in an overcrowded bag.  The lid is a screw-on type, and no risk of accidental opening or leakage.

The product has a sweet coconutty-chocolatey smell to it - reminds me of Bounty (which BTW I hate hate hate because of all that coconut in it) - but no flavor when it goes on the lips.

It's a fabulous lip balm, and I can find absolutely no faults with it.  Even the Bounty-like smell, I really have no issues with.  What I really really love about this, though, is that its AMAZING on rough elbows - which is a constant problem for me because apart from being superlazy at moisturizing, I also have this annoying habit of leaning on my elbows all the time.  I have started using this lip butter on my elbows, and they really are so much smoother now.  Safe to say, this has been the product I have ever used on my elbows.

    You can scrub your elbows too, before you apply this balm for better effects..Just take a lemon, cut it into half, sprinkle some sugar on one half and rub on your elbows!! :D :D :D

    Of course you can use a moisturiser over elbows..but this one is wayyy more effective. Plus I think my elbows are more beaten up than the average person because I keep leaning on them..on the comp chair ka arm :D :D :D

  26. RatiJanuary 28, 2011 at 5:00 AM

    I think I must pick it for elbows atleast. Regular creams really dont work on rough elbows. :(( Do they have it in other flavours as well. I dont like coconut smell at all. It gives me headache. :(( My shopping list is so unending. :D

    I also get tempted to pick up stuff kept on billing counters, especially snickers and mars. :-

    Ratiii - I hate Bounty smell, but you can only smell it if you sniff the dabba, not on lips.
