Vintage Soap Co. Lip Cremes
From Vintage Soap Co.'s Etsy

$1.75 (+ $1.50 S&H)
3 for $5.25 (+ $1.75 S&H)

[sweet almond oil, jojoba seed oil, grapeseed oil, cocoa butter, shea butter, beeswax, essential oils, honey, stevia, flavor]

I received the following flavors:

Let's Smooch (grapefruit)
Sparkling Grape
Coconut Lime
Peace (anise, mints, cloves)

I was really excited about these balms because they had really cool Celtic labels...and Grape was a flavor.

These balms all go on the same. There are creamy and lush on your lips. They moisturize and nourish your lips. They are silky and soak in evenly. It is a great feeling. They last about 3 hours, and do not survive drinking or eating.

Here is the breakdown for the flavors:

Let's Smooch: If you love grapefruit...this is the balm for you! It smells great and tastes like a large grapefruit. It is tart yet sweet.

Sparkling Grape: It smells like an icky medicinal grape flavor. When you put it on, it does not get much better. I was really disappointed in this grape flavor.

Coconut Lime: This balm smells like a warm pina colada. Now, that may not sound good, but it is really nice. It tastes like coconut, but has a slight sweetness, which I assume is the lime.

Peace: This was my favorite. It is a warm and calming lip balm. It is not lick liping goodness, but it is a really great sophisticatd scent/flavor. If you love cloves, this is for you! And it makes your lips tingle wit the mint. Very nice.

Overall, these balms feel great. They are a great balm, I just picked some bad flavors. The only negative is that these balms do not hold up to the heat well. So I would advise against keeping them in your pockets.

Rating: 4 outta 5
