Pulpe De Vie Glossy Lip Balm and Pearly Moisturizing Body Milk

Last Christmas, I was introduced to Pulpe De Vie, a French organic brand with origins from the south of France (thank you 大姐 for these). I love the whimsical, cute packaging with the lovely colors and drawings. Sadly I threw the boxes away, but for a preview do check their website out. 
The Glossy Lip Balm comes in a transparent tube with a slanted applicator. 
It's a thicker consistency compared to most lip balms. I say the opacity it provides is more of a lipstick's. It comes in a single shade of reddish, rusty, orange brown that translates naturally on the lips. The slight glitters also keep it from looking too flat on the lips. It provides adequate moisture, but don't expect it to soften like a balm. It doesn't dry the lips out at all. 
Here is a swatch. 
The Pearly Moisturizing Body Milk comes in a white tube bottle. 
Their slogan, "my daily pinch of good mood," is something I can relate to when I look at their products. 
The pearly milk is a cream colored mixture that has the consistency of milk (looks good enough to drink!). It smells of grapefruits and leaves the skin lightly moisturized and sparkly. 
The sparkly bits are quite obvious upon close inspection, so I would leave this to be used for evening. 
Overall, Pulpe De Vie offers fun, high-quality products that I reach for time and again. The brand is available in Rustan's.
