Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Balm

Losing/forgetting chapstick is the worst thing ever. You notice your dry lips even more! Recently, I lost my Nivea chapstick (which I had just bought) and reverted back to EOS. Not a fan of the Sweet Mint flavor because I always peel/bite my dry skin off and it burns when I apply it. Saw Burt's Bees new product at Walgreens a few days ago but was seriously broke (T_T), but now I got my paycheck and a great deal on all of these chapsticks!

With an instant coupon ($3 off a $10 cosmetics purchase) and a regular manufacturers coupon (BOGO free Nivea Lip Care), I was able to get these 4 chapsticks for about $4 each at CVS. (I'm really starting to love CVS now) The Nivea chapsticks were regularly $3.49 and $3.99. The Burt's Bess Tinted Lip Balms are $6.99.

I was drawn to the cardboard packaging and colors. Unfortunately, the cardboard packaging is just that--packaging. The lip balm is in a regular plastic tube. The colors are pretty, but sheer. I kind of notice the nude of Honeysuckle, but other people would probably not see it. The taste and scent in both are similar.

In other beauty news...
So excited for Suave Professionals Dry Shampoo! When I saw it on youtube, I went straight to my nearest Walmart (at 10:00 at night -__-) and of course they didn't have it. I called the Walmarts around my area and one store says they have it, but I'm weary (-__-). I'm trying to rationalize driving over there just to get it (if they even have it).
