Love the clips on top! |
Company: Rachel Rene Bath & Body
Flavors: Peach Lemonade, Mango Mango, Lemon Cupcake. The Peach Lemonade is so interesting! I have never seen this combination in a lip balm before, so I had no idea what to expect. There's definitely a sour and kind of tart yet sweet lemonade scent and a slight peach scent. It's wonderful! I do not like the Mango Mango at all. I don't know what it is about it, but the scent is very off. It smells like something fruity, but there's something in it that makes my stomach turn. I'm not sure if it's because it's the beeswax formula (the other two flavors are vegan friendly), but I just did not like it. The Lemon Cupcake is very nice though! It's definitely got the scent of a lemony dessert. It's not crazy overpowering in scent, so if you're not a fan of strongly scented balms, definitely give this one a shot!
Wear: The vegan formula balms go on SO lovely. They go on a bit thicker than other balms, just one or two swipes and you're good to go for at least two hours. They're so smooth and creamy, just wonderful! The beeswax formula though was a bit grainy, just adding to it's problems. I don't know why the beeswax one is the one I'm having problems with!
Packaging: Like I said before, these lip balm tubes come with clips on the caps! AMAZING! It's so convenient to be able to clip my lip balm to my keys. I've been looking for forever for something to allow me to do this. I love these caps because I didn't have to buy an extra gadget to attach my lip balm to my keys. Otherwise, these lip balms come in your average lip balm tubes which are white with white labels (the beeswax is clear with a white label). The labels are pretty simple, the company name, what type of lip balm (i.e. vegan), followed by the flavor of the balm, the ingredients, and the link to the shop.
Price: $9.50 for 3, not bad at all!
Overall:
Pros: Vegan Flavors, Wear, Packaging, Price, Clips!
Cons: Beeswax flavor & wear
Rating: 4 out of 5 twists; I love these lip balms. The consistency is just fabulous, as well as the flavors. My experience with the beeswax lip balm will not deter me from purchasing from this company again in the future. I don't know what happened with my Mango Mango lip balm, but you may have a better experience with it!
