Yankee Candle Lip Balm



Alright, I like making my own lip balms but I also enjoy treating myself to those made by others.
I heard a few months ago that Yankee Candle was now making lip balms; my interest was peaked and was interested in getting my hands on one to try.
Two weeks ago I went into Yankee, picked up a candle a few votives and tossed in the lip balm to give it a try.
I was not too sure how it would be but I kept an open mind.
The jar lid has a protective tamper resistant seal that peels off so you are then able to open up the product.
Shhh.... I need to admit that it took me a few minutes to figure out how to twist up the lip balm - it's the bottom of the jar that twists up. *silly me*
As you can see the lip balm is in the same shaped jar as their famous candles, way too cute!
I picked the strawberry flavored balm because that is my favorite lip balm flavor.
First thing I did once outside was look at the ingredients and I was mighty impressed.
This balm is with made with beeswax, organic extra virgin olive oil, organic hemp seed oil, vitamin E and has an SPF 15 factor. *Thumbs Up* Great ingredients to pamper your lips with so the next was the text of how it felt on my lips.
Excellent glide, nice light feeling (strong dislike to heavy lip balms), and it lasts a long time.
I have even worn this under my lipstick with great results.
*Thumbs Up*
Then there is the scent, it smells exactly like a juicy strawberry. Oh.Yum!
*Thumbs Up*

This is one fantastic lip balm that I highly recommend you give a try.
The lip balm is .14 ounces and packed with wonderful pampering ingredients for your lips.
You have four great flavors to select from they are Black Cherry, Sweet Strawberry, Buttercream, Vanilla Cupcake and Vanilla Lime.
