Nuxe Reve de Miel Lip Balm Review & Photos

Nuxe Reve de Miel Lip Balm ($19 USD for 15 g) is described as a concentrated lip balm to help nourish, repair, soothe, and protect lips. The main ingredients in this balm are honey, plant oils, shea butter, and grapefruit essence. I picked this up after hearing so much hype about it and can't wait to share with my thoughts with you on this product. I picked mine up on the Birchbox website with my Birchbox points.

I purchased this a lip balm to wear at night before I go bed. I tend to prefer a thicker consistency for nighttime balms. I use this after my lip scrub. I know to some $19 USD might seem like a lot to spend on a lip balm but I've purchased even more expensive ones like Baume de Rose from ByTerry so this is cheap in comparison. Plus I think that this will last me a while so that helps to justify the price.

The packaging is a frosted glass jar that feels very fancy and luxe. It is probably too heavy to travel with but I love the look of it in my medicine cabinet. It would be amazing if they made a mini version of this for travel.

The texture of this balm is very different than anything else I have ever tried and I have tried quite a few. This applies thick but dries more matte. It is not a sticky balm either. There is some slight exfoliation (almost gritty) with this balm but once you rub it in, it just melts into your lips. I love the scent of this product. It is a very slight citrus smell. I've heard some people say it smells like chocolate covered oranges and I can see that but it does smell amazing. This also stays on my lips all night which is a huge plus because a lot of lip balms rub off quickly.

Overall, I love this product and it will be a definite repurchase when I run out. It really does moisturize my lips and is perfect for nighttime for me. If you are in the market for a new lip balm I say pick this one up. I know they also sell it at SpaceNK and Bloomingdales. If you've tried this product I would love to hear your thoughts.
