My Top 5 Tinted Lip Balms

Hello everybody! I know it's the beginning of February but happy new year anyways. January has been a bit dull as it usually is, festivities have ended and i just want it to be summer, or at least spring and for this rain and cold to stop! But anyway, today i wanted to bring you all my top 5 tinted lipbalms as i have come to the conclusion i have far too many for a normal person and it was really difficult to narrow it down but hay ho.
From right to left i have; Vaseline 'Paint the town', Labello (Nivea) 'Fruity shine', Korres Pomegranate, The Body Shop born lippy in 'Strawberry' and Maybelline baby lips in 'Cherry'.
Here are the swatches:
 


 Vaseline- This lip balm is really natural and a pretty sheer red and it smells really sweet. I purchased it not too long ago in boots for £3.99 which is quite pricey for Vaseline but i think it's worth it as it's a tint as well as a balm and it might be limited edition.

Labello (Nivea) Fruity Shine- I found this in italy and haven't been able to get it in London although i think they have these in America. It has a bit of glitter which isn't really seen in the swatch but you can see it on the lips. It also smells really good and i think it was around 2 euros which is a nice price.

Korres Pomegranate- I searched a lot for this lip balm after seeing Estee blogging about them ages ago and was going to order it but luckily they had loads of colours unexpectedly stocked in Waitrose. It is not as glossy as the others but really moisturising and has good colour pay off.

Body Shop Strawberry- I like this lip balm because the packaging is really cute and it smells like strawberries. The one down side of this lip balm is i find it a bit sticky but they come in lots of different flavours and colours so there is one for everybody.

Maybelline Baby lips in Cherry- This lip balm is really light weight and the colour is like a berry red. It's a nice everyday lip balm and as the name suggests it smells like cherries. Boots usually have a 3 for 2 deal on which i never say no to.

Thanks for reading,
