Company: Ripe ShopFlavors: Mango, Pistachio Cream, and White Chocolate Coconut. The Mango balm smells wonderful! Very sweet and tropical, just like my favorite fruit! I've been kind of obsessed with pistachio balms ever since I was sent a LWF Pistachio Chip lip balm from one of my readers. So it only made sense for me to try Ripe Shop's Pistachio Cream balm. This balm smells very sweet and creamy and a little nutty. I love it! What I was really excited about was the White Chocolate Coconut, two of my favorite flavors in one balm? It's just got to be good! This balm is a rich white chocolate scent with warmly scented coconut blended into it, it smells so decadent!
Wear: These balms go on very, very smooth and creamy. They practically melt right into my lips. One or two swipes on top and bottom and you're good to go!
Packaging: These balms come in oval tubes that are the same weight as your average size lip balm. The labels are very plain and simple, white with a black font and has the name of the balm right on front.
Price: $4 per tube, which is not too bad for one of these balms.
Overall
Pros: Flavors, Wear, Packaging, Price
Cons:
Rating: 4.5 out of 5 twists, these balms are amazing! I'd really recommend that you try at least one or two flavors, they're wonderful!
Ingredients: Sweet Almond Oil, Coconut Oil, Beeswax, Avocado Oil, Cocoa & Shea Butters, Vitamin E, Flavor

Last week I received my first order from Ripe Shop which included White Chocolate Coconut and just plain Coconut. I really like them! Try as I might though, I can't pick out the coconut through the white chocolate scent! Not a big problem though because it smells delicious anyway! I'm already eyeing a few more from that shop. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're enjoying your balms from Ripe Shop! I'm always eyeing a few more from her shop, I received my second order a couple weeks ago, and still I find myself wanting more!

Thank you so much Christina!!! I actually use the mango and white chocolate coconut almost every day! Mango is in my purse and white chocolate coconut is in my desk at work. Yeah, the coconut is on the faint side I agree. It's just so hard to get a good coconut scent that permeates and stays well, it's always so subtle. I probably add more coconut than white chocolate in the mix when I make that one too! My new Indian Mango is really great too, has a touch of yogurt. Thanks again!!!! :) ~Adriana
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Adriana! I can't stop using the White Chocolate Coconut, I keep it on my nightstand =). I saw your Indian Mango last night, I think that'll be one of the next ones I try!
