Lipsmackers, Bonne Bell





























I am addicted to Lipsmackers and BonneBell. The items in the pictures were purchased from Claire's or eBay. The flavours are brilliant, and some, like the Dr Pepper one, leave a nice hint of colour, which is great on days when I'm too lazy to apply lipstick properly...

I think my love affair with the brand started when I was about 15. The local Superdrug installed a Bonne Bell stand. I was in awe at the sparklyness of the products, and ended up buying three things. A stick balm that smelled like burnt cinnamon, and two lip swirls, one red (I think it was raspberry) and a brown one (think it was chocolate). I was hooked. Burnt cinnamon got me thorough many a GCSE science class. Good times.

Then things went quiet for a few years because Superdrug stopped selling them. It was a sad time for me. Until I discovered Claire's were selling a few items.

Despite being four years shy of 30, I'm still a fan. Partly because I feel young again when using them, and mainly because of the price. £3.00 for a roll on gloss that tastes like Coke? I'm so there.
