Two New Balms I Love!

I proudly raise my hand as a lip balm junkie...but I still get excited over new formulas and packaging.

I just can't help myself!

My first new love is the Smith's Minted Rose Lip Balm in a tube!! Many of you may be familiar with the cult favorite Rosebud Salve in a tin. There is a tin version of this as well, but I love the tube so much! Really easy application.


This does come out pink, but is colorless on the lips. The scent/taste is like the normal Rosebud salve, with a hint of mint, which I find much less strong and much more pleasing. This is not thick, but still moisturizes really well. It has become a new staple in my purse!

You can find the tube version for $6 in store and online at Anthropologie. There are also Raspberry and Mocha ones I totally need!

My next love is the deliciously yummy Limoncello Lip Butter!


First of all, the packaging is gorgeous and I fully plan on making it a jewelry tin when I am through with it. But first, it is helping my lips stay soft and supple with the perfect lemony sweet citrus smell that I love using in the morning to wake me up!


I love that the lid is attached, and the handy mirror makes it great for touch-ups on the go. Although I hate sticking my fingers in pot balms, the totally lovely formula of this makes it an exception for me.

Find this little lovely by The Soap and Paper Factory for $9 also at Anthropologie.

  6. I have a tin of the rosebud that is like a year old and unopened (SHAME SHAME). Glad to hear they have a new tube they is something I would find much more accessible!
