Thanks to one of my readers, who recommended Epically Epic Soap Co. a while ago, I've got to try some pretty awesome balms from this company. I had always seen these balms around on Etsy (one of my greatest additions, I'm sure we all have that in common) and wanted to purchase but just never did. Usually it takes a reader recommending something to push me to buy an item I've had my eye on for a while. Let's get to it, shall we?
Company: Epically Epic Soap Co.

Mango Lassi, P.O.G., Mango Lychee
(left to right) |
Flavors: Mango Lychee, Mango Lassi, P.O.G. (Passionfruit Orange Guava). I really love the Mango flavors; I've been looking for a decent mango lip balm since mangoes are probably my number one favorite fruit (despite the crazy--to me--amount of calories in one). The Mango Lychee is definitely a mango-esque balm. I don't really sense the Lychee in it but it must be what makes this balm different from the Mango Lassi balm. Maybe I just can't pick out the Lychee out of it but the two balms are different in scent. The Mango Lassi seems a bit sweeter than the Mango Lychee, but is definitely still very mango-y. Not the mango-y I was looking for but it will definitely do. I was really looking forward to the P.O.G. lip balm since I love tropical mixes like that but there was something in it that I just didn't care for. This balm was very floral to me and everyone knows how much I dislike a floral balm. If you like fruity floral balms, this may be the one for you! I really wish I had picked up the Blueberry Lemonade lip balm, I kept going back and forth on Blueberry Lemonade and P.O.G.. Maybe next time!
Wear: These balms go on SO smooth and kinda thick which I like because I don't have to waste time going around and around my mouth to make sure I have great coverage. When my lips are super chapped I definitely reach for Epically Epic. They last about two hours to which is great. They even lasted through crazy amount of nose blowing (too much information? I've had a little cold lately and these balms are the only ones who last when it comes to my use of tissues).
Packaging: These tubes are really distinct out of my collection. The labels are bright colors and have a giant part dedicated to the company's name and the flavor. On the edges of the label (vertically if the tube is put standing up on a table) there is a little floral black and white pattern which to me gives these tubes a little eclectic look to it, which I totally love.
Price I paid $10.50 for 3 balms. I don't think that's really that bad for a natural, long lasting, and nourishing lip balm.
Overall:
Pros: Flavors, Wear, Packaging, Price, Vegan/Natural
Cons:
Rating: 4.5 out of 5 twists, these balms are great! If you're looking for a new balm to try, definitely give this company a shot!
