Alright, so these aren't exactly "new" products, but they are new to me! Last weekend while perusing Nordstrom Rack, I came across Kiehl's Lip Balm #1 in Mango, Cranberry and Mint flavors. I figured these were discontinued since they were half off and only $4.50, but they are still available on the Kiehl's website. I used to swear by this lip balm and went through several tubes, so of course I had to pick up the mango! It smells really juicy in a Starbursts sort of way, but I like that it isn't actually sweet tasting. The balm itself is thick-ish, adds just a little hint of shine and keeps my lips moisturized.
Another lip balm I used to use by the stick load (??) is the one by Burt's Bees. Okay, I don't want to act like I "discovered" Burt's Bees, but I loved the brand before they had distribution in every major retailer, got purchased by Clorox (wtf!), and had a billion products. I recently placed a Burt's Bees order online which included the Burt's Bees Refreshing Lip Balm with Pink Grapefruit. I love citrusy scents and flavors so this was a no brainer. The scent is fresh, crisp, everything you associate with pink grapefruit! I find Burt's Bees lip balms a bit waxy, but it's a great every day choice. Just don't leave it in the car on a hot day because it will melt into a puddle!
