If I am honest, when I kept seeing posts praising the powers of the Nuxe Rêve de Miel balm I was a bit skeptical. Could a balm really be that good?

Then I spotted it in my local chemist’s and I could not resist the temptation. There was some kind of 20 anniversary edition thing going on, but I grabbed the one that seemed to be the original formula.

Well, now it is when I confess that I have become a convert!

It is a very nourishing balm indeed. You feel your lips less prone to being dry and to become chapped. I don’t usually have much trouble with my lips, but since I started using this balm I haven’t had any days of dry lips. I have even worn it on its own instead of using lipstick as I quite like the slightly mattyfied effect it leaves on the lips.

The texture, as many have pointed before, is quite thick, but it warms up nicely. As for the smell, well that is a wonderful discovery for me as it smells exactly like the orange Sugus sweets from my childhood!

All in all a very nice discovery.
