If you love a lip balm which does multiple things in one, then this Aveda Lip Saver could become your new beauty go-to as it promises to 'moisturise' and makes lips look buttery smooth.
This botanical balm which contains naturally derived waxes is also currently reduced from £14 to £11.20. It delivers moisture relief to dry lips as well as refreshes with cinnamon leaf, clove and anise oils.
But what do shoppers think? One happy Sephora customer said: 'This is a wonderful product, really moisturising and gives your lips a VERY SUBTLE shine.
'I would highly recommend this lip balm and have only marked it down a star as it is not SPF - there are similar products on the market which do contain an SPF, therefore I purchase a separate SPF lip balm for holidays.'
Someone else shared that it has been a long time favourite for them, noting: 'Lasts for ages after each application and is less greasy than others so it doesn't slide off. For money-saving tips, sign up to our Money newsletter here
'Been using this for years and wouldn't change to anything else. '
However some people did note that the original price may be a little too high, so if you do want to grab it while it's on offer, now might be the best time.
One person said: 'Always works for my lips, I would highly recommend this but I do look out for it when it is on offer as it is expensive.
'However it's the only thing that works for my lips.'
Yet someone else sang its praises, writing: 'Lovely cost-effective lip balm which I have been using for many years!
'Contains all natural ingredients and does not leave sticky residue on your lips.
'The balm is smooth and leaves your lips soft and moisturised.'

'Birmingham is beauty capital of Midlands'
As self-described "ultimate beauty destination" Space NK prepares to open its second largest UK store in Birmingham this week, experts explain how the booming make-up industry is helping to alleviate the city's high street influencers were invited for a sneak peek inside Space NK's huge new branch in the Bullring - even a room full of empty shelves was enough to excite followers five weeks before creator and journalist Rose Gallagher said it was the brand's ability to offer shoppers an experience that made it so special. "One of the things Space NK do really well is curating niche fragrances - and fragrance is one of those things that, even though you can see it and learn about it online, you want to try it and you want to smell it."It's that experience you can't get on through a screen that you're now going to get in the city and it's just going to bring more people together and out and about." Shopping centre staff will be bringing out the crowd control barriers again with thousands expected to attend Space NK's opening on Wednesday. It was a similar scene in November when French beauty empire Sephora opened in the UK's first Korean beauty brand, Pureseoul, also chose the centre for its second store outside of London last year. Across the country, the beauty and personal care industry is rapidly expanding, making a direct contribution of £15.9bn to the UK economy last year, according to the British Beauty Council. The boom is in direct contrast with the UK's high street picture with 13,500 shops closing last year - an average of 37 a day, figures from the Centre for Retail Research show. River Island is the latest casualty, having to shut 33 stores to stave off collapse."Since the pandemic the high street has unfortunately really struggled. We're losing many of our much loved brands," said Professor Sarah Montano, professor of retail marketing at the University of Birmingham. "But what we're seeing is a real surge of beauty brands opening here in Birmingham."Beauty is doing well in comparison to the rest of the high street because they've really focused on what consumers are looking for and they're offering something different and really meeting their needs." Diversity and innovation Professor Montano said with women making over 70% of all consumption decisions, the rapidly expanding sector is targeting that spending. "What we're seeing is beauty entrepreneurs really focusing on diversity and offering a great range of products that suit everybody but also really innovating in beauty products as well," she added. At the Bullring, the beauty boom has helped increase footfall, which is estimated to reach 50 million this location in the Midlands means it is attracting make-up, skincare and wellness enthusiasts from across the country. Nita Chambers, brand partnership lead at Hammerson, which owns the shopping centre, said: "It's a completely different world post-pandemic, its been a real change to the retail landscape."Beauty is consistently one of our best performing sectors, and it's one people will travel for."We like to think of ourselves as the beauty capital of the Midlands and we've got so much to offer and so many brands that want to be part of our Birmingham catchment as well." TikTok and Instagram beauty influencer Yasmin Hussein said it was the range of products drawing customers back into brick and mortar shops."Birmingham needed a store like Space NK to come, it's what was missing," the 27-year-old from the city said. "There's loads of brands stocked at the store that everyone knows and loves and it came at the perfect time."Founded in 1991, Space NK first opened its doors in London's Covent Garden in 1993. It stocks over 130 beauty brands and has more than 80 stores across the UK and Ireland. Charlie Evans, head of retail for the chain, said the Birmingham opening was part of a big expansion over the last 12 months. "Customers have been calling out - shouting out - to be in Birmingham and we've had some really big cities - but Birmingham is our most important," she two-storey store will open at 10:00 BST, creating 40 new jobs. The first 500 customers will receive a goody bag, as well as a Birmingham-themed challenge in the shape of a bucking broncho to take on. 'It's more than just make-up' Retail is not the only area where beauty is thriving, with more people taking up college courses to work in the growing College in West Bromwich has had a 55% increase in student admissions across their hair and beauty Niamh Coffey said she was drawn to beauty as a career because make-up makes her feel 21-year-old said: "I like how make-up makes me feel. I think it's really creative and I like making people feel like their best selves, whether that's with make-up or with nails or lashes." Roseanna Wiggins-Lambert said the rise of beauty influencers online helped shape her make-up dreams."[I watched] influencers online and on YouTube, to see how they did their make-up because I always struggled. "It was really hard to follow them but I got there in the end."Demi Leigh, 19, left a job working with children to pursue beauty because she thought there was more to the industry than "just make-up". "It was a big shock and a step up. I never saw myself doing it but now I can't see myself not doing it," she said."If you don't see yourself doing it, give it a try - you'll love it."

The Claire's downfall proves it: girls are skipping the ‘tween' phase
An entire generation of tweenagers could be missing out on a rite of passage: getting your ears pierced by a 20-year-old behind a Claire's shop window, while your mum hovers nervously nearby, and you agonise which studs are worth your pocket money. Claire's – the glittery, purple hued accessory wonder emporium – has filed for bankruptcy in the US for the second time in seven years. The retailer, which still has more than 2,700 stores globally, including in the UK, Spain and France, says a cocktail of factors are to blame including mounting debt, a slowdown in consumer spending, rising costs and tariffs, and the relentless shift from high street to online shopping. Although US stores remain open for now, plans are already underway to close up to 1,300 in America alone. But the slow demise of this once-ubiquitous tween mecca isn't just about money, it also speaks to a sad cultural shift. The tweenage stage is shrinking, if not disappearing entirely. These days, instead of hanging around Claire's debating which rainbow spike earrings to buy with their pocket money, many pre-teens are skipping straight to Sephora. They're filling their baskets with £40 serums, retinol-infused eye creams and dermatologically approved facewashes – often before they've had their first breakout. They're known as the 'Sephora Kids' – members of Gen Alpha, born from 2010 onwards, and they're a huge demographic. In 2023, a report by data firm NielsenIQ showed that US households with six to 12-year-olds spent nearly $4.7 billion on beauty products – more than any other age bracket and 27% more on skincare than the previous year. Social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram have turbocharged the movement. They've turned beauty aisles into playgrounds for nine year olds. Earlier this year, the LA Times interviewed 10-year-old Naiya White, a tweenage Skinfluencer who spends hundreds of dollars on products and posts reviews to her TikTok followers. Rather than barbies and friendship bracelets, her wish lists include hyaluronic balms and $28 avocado cleansers. She's one of the growing number of children who speak fluently in skincare, sharing double cleansing methods on TikTok before they've even entered high school. Type 'get ready with me' into TikTok's search bar and you'll find primary school age children filming elaborate 10-step nighttime routines, nestled between millions of similar posts from adults. Parents might be shocked to see such young faces on the apps, but tweens are already firmly established in the digital world. In the UK, there were an estimated 1.1 to 1.4 million children under 13 with TikTok accounts in 2020, despite the platform's age restriction. International studies show that 30% of children aged 5-7 use TikTok, and among kids aged 8–12 who do use social media, approximately 51% have their own TikTok profile, according to Ofcom. For older generations, the contrast is striking. Millennials and Gen Xers regularly post online about how grateful they are to have grown up without social media, without the pressure of filming a morning routine for public viewing, or needing to justify why they opted for a £2.25 Simple cleanser rather than a £50 one. Today's kids will never know the thrill of walking out of Claire's with a tiny bag of spare studs, ears throbbing slightly from the piercing guns and feeling like you've become a real teenager. Claire's bankruptcy is more than just a decline of bricks-and-mortar retail – it feels like the end of a whole generation of tweenagers. Do you have a story to share?
