The summer season will soon be in full swing. And nothing says summer like a fresh new lip balm (because who is wearing lipstick to the beach?) So if you are on the lookout for a new lip balm which gives you buttery soft lips, then the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm might be your perfect summer go-to.
Speaking of the warmer weather and summer trends, according to some shoppers, this lip balm also smells uniquely of 'iced coffee'. A big win for any espresso lovers. You can buy it for £23 in a number of shades here at Sephora.
The popular item is 100% vegan, and promises to 'soothe dry lips with a touch of sheer bright pink colour', according to Sephora. 'Butter up for instant moisture, colour and shine- and a hint of sweet guava flavour.' For money-saving tips, sign up to our Money newsletter here

Singing the lip balm's praises, one shopper entitled their review: 'Smells exactly like iced coffee', writing: 'This has a great formula and smell. It's great for lip combos and it's really hydrating.'
Someone else noted: ' Must have lip gloss ', adding: 'The Cherry is incredible.
'The smell is amazing, the texture is lightweight, the finish is shiny and gorgeous!'
While the vast majority of buyers had nothing but positive things to say in the reviews on Sephora, not everyone was keen.
One person noted that they wished they had ordered a shade in a darker colour, writing: 'The pink sugar gloss is very hydrating and not sticky or gloopy.
'However the colour does not show up at all, so just a basic balm. Try a darker shade if you actually want a tint!'
Yet someone else added: 'Genuinely the best lip balm I've ever used. I have two, the vanilla and the mint, and also got one for my mum for Mother's Day!
'It's more than what I'd usually pay for a lip balm but honestly really worth it as I saw results so quickly.'
Similar products you could also buy include the REFY High-shine lip gloss for £16 , or the Super Healthy Skin Nourishing Lip Balm SPF 30 for £17 at Beauty Pie.
For a more budget-friendly option there is also the Honeybalm Honey Lip Balm which you can get for £8.99 at Honeybalm.

Shoppers can snap up Penhaligon's 'rich' £215 scent for £8
'The perfume has a strong smell, I would definitely recommend this and will purchase more as the quality is great' Shoppers can get dad a 'long lasting' luxury scent for less this Father's Day with this handy trick. A bottle of Halfeti by Penhaligon's typically retails at an eye-watering £215 a bottle - but there's a way to get an authentic bottle for £8. The Gentlemen's Fragrance Collection is a £40 gift set containing five 5ml bottles of the brand's best-selling scents for men, making each bottle £8. They are on the smaller side however our team fragrance expert, who wears perfume every single day, insists this set could easily last a few months with regular use and that they're a great way to trial scents before committing to a pricey full-sized bottle. Fragrance discovery sets have definitely been more popular lately, with fragrances reacting to each person's skin differently it's a great way to figure out if something is a match. Maison Margiela similarly have a Mini Discovery Set with two 7ml bottles of Beach Walk and By the Fireplace for £35 on Sephora. There's also a Tom Ford Signature Mini Discovery Set for £24 at LookFantastic - although each bottle is less than 2ml. Inside the Penhaligon's set are five 5ml bottles of the brand's iconic scents. Shoppers can find: Quercus (Top notes are Amalfi Lemon, Lime, Bergamot and Mandarin Orange; middle notes are Lily-of-the-Valley, Jasmine and Cardamom; base notes are Oakmoss, Musk, Galbanum, Sandalwood and Amber) Blenheim Bouquet (Top note is lemon, middle note is Lavender and base note is Pine) Endymion (Top notes are Lavender, Bergamot, Sage and Mandarin Orange; middle notes are Coffee and Geranium; base notes are Leather, Sandalwood, Cardamon, Myrhh, Nutmeg, Black Pepper, Musk, Incense, Vetiver and Olibanum) Halfeti (Top notes are Cypress Leaf, Saffron, Cardamom, Artemisia, Bergamot and Grapefruit; middle notes are Bulgarian Rose, Nutmeg and Jasmine; base notes are Agarwood (Oud), Cedar, Leather, Sandalwood, Amber, Tonka Bean, Vanilla and Musk) Juniper Sling (Top notes are Juniper Berries, Orange, Angelica and Cinnamon; middle notes are Pepper, Cardamom, Leather and Orris Root; base notes are Vetiver, Sugar, Cherry and Amber) Halfeti is the brand's best-seller in this set and has an average rating of 4.7 out of five over on the Penhaligon's website. One shopper said: "This fragrance might not be everyone's cup of tea but I absolutely love it. Its spicy and long lasting and my favourite from the brand. Always receive compliments when wearing it. I would suggest to get a sample first and try it out before buying a full bottle." A second wrote: "Love the smell it lasts for ever. Lovely strong smell makes me feel the rich haha. The perfume has a strong smell I would definitely recommend this and will purchase more as the quality is great. Great as gift for loves one." A third wasn't too impressed, saying: "It is a very strong perfume and a couple of squirts on my wrists lasted all day. It has a musky, oriental aroma and although I do like it, I think for me personally, it is better suited as a winter perfume." A fourth added: "This is a beautiful very high end perfume. I absolutely love this brand. So elegant and classy. A little bit of any of these perfumes really does go a long way! I would highly recommend this perfume. It's stunning."

Sephora shoppers say 'run don't walk' for perfume that smells of beach days
Sephora shoppers say 'run don't walk' for perfume that smells of beach days 'Run don't walk to buy this! I just love love love this scent! I can't get enough of it. I just want to smell like the beach and coconuts and not many scents wow me in that regard. This one is amazing and I am in love.' Sephora shoppers say 'run don't walk' for perfume that smells of beach days (Image: Getty Images/Image Source ) Sephora shoppers are swearing there's a must-have scent this summer and that we should run for it. NEST New York has a range of perfume oils on the market but it's their Balinese Coconut drawing in attention. Balinese Coconut is a simple blend of coconut, tiare blossom and salted musk that creates a beachy scent perfect for warmer months. Bali is proving popular this summer for perfume inspiration with Jo Malone fans raving over Frangipani Flower (£58) which is said to smell just like the beaches in Bali. This perfume oil is small enough to slip into handbags but would likely pair well with Phlur's Beach Skin (£25) which it shares some notes with - although Beach Skin has pink pepper, sandalwood and the addition of bergamot.

One shopper said: "Run don't walk to buy this! I just love love love this scent! I can't get enough of it. I just want to smell like the beach and coconuts and not many scents wow me in that regard. This one is amazing and I am in love." A second penned: "I absolutely love the smell of this perfume! It smells like a warm summer beach day filled with coconuts and sunshine. It's a subtle scent and it shifts as the day goes on but lasts! I also love Beach Walk by MM, so if you like that scent you'll love this." One shopper wasn't thrilled with the longevity of the coconut note, writing: "I really wanted to love this. Coconut is one of my favourite fragrances and I was so excited to see that Nest created a coconut scented body oil. Upon first sniff the coconut is creamy and sweet. Unfortunately, the beautiful coconut note fades and all that's left is the smell of spicy sandalwood with hints of warm vanilla."

And not just like 'oh you smell good' but omg what do you have on, I want to gatekeep so bad but can't. Fits so well with my natural pheromones." Balinese Coconut is available for £35 on Sephora.
