My Lip Stuff Review & GIVEAWAY!

Lip balm is huge in my house. For as long as I can remember, I have had an appreciation for (read: addiction to) lip balm. I have 3 girls and I just ‘may’ be responsible for their ‘like’ of lip products. You may remember my Wordless Wednesday post a while back of Little S’s secret stash…

I recently received 3 lip balms to review from a company called My Lip Stuff – fantastic name by the way. They offer, get this, OVER 500 flavours of lip balm… are your lips trembling yet?

Here is a quick list of some of the flavours that caught my eye (for better or worse!):

Banana Cream Pie

Coconut Rum

Monkey Farts (?!)

Bacon (?!)

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

PB&J

Vanilla Sugar

Strawberry Daquiri (Mmmm…)

… I could be here nearly all day – you saw where I said they have 500+ flavours right?!

I was sent “Pink Cake”, “Pink Grapefruit & Raspberry”, and my most favourite – “Oreo Cheesecake”. Each of the three we tried have a slightly different ‘feel’ to them than the over-the-counter brands available at your local drugstore. They had more of a ‘moist’, ‘buttery’ feeling which I found to be totally refreshing. I also really liked the super subtle shimmer each balm had – I have never been into lipstick and find most glosses to be too shiny – this was a nice in between.

Oh, and if you’re looking for a truly unique, personalized gift for your wedding guests or your business, the labels are customizable! Picture this… a destination wedding where you give all your guests their own lip balm! They’d be easy to pack AND you can choose the label and flavour!

My Lip Stuff not only offers lip balm, but other bath and body products – all of which are “skin, earth and animal friendly”. I could actually read and pronounce every single ingredient on the label! Their products are never tested on animals, do not contain hash chemicals, petroleum or mineral oil and they have even gone so far as to drive a Hybrid!

Brea from My Lip Stuff has generously offered one of my readers a random 6 pack of lip balm! … your lips will be pimp’d!

BUY IT!
Head on over to My Lip Stuff and order up... your lips will thank you!
