My Lip Stuff - all Natural Lip Balm - Review and Giveaway! (CLOSED)


CLOSED

I recently had the awesome opportunity to review some natural lip balms from My Lip Stuff! They sent me  Peaches N Cream, Birch Beer Float, and Kitty Litter Cake for review. I really like all three of them so much! I keep one by my computer, one in the diaper bag, and one on my dining room table. I have been using the Peaches N Cream on my three and a half year old son because the skin between his upper lip and nose have been raw from his cold and from his nose running this past week. His upper lip and the skin above it are almost completely healed! I like knowing that I am using an all natural product on my son and it won't hurt him at all.

Peaches N Cream smells like yummy peaches & fresh cream blended to make you think you're eating the real thing! My children love this one!

Birch Beer Float is a delicious blend of birch beer soda with vanilla ice cream. Like a rootbeer float- but better- because Birch Beer is better!

Kitty Litter Cake is a mixture of chocolate cake, vanilla cookies & pudding, and tootsie rolls all come together to make this delicious flavor with a silly name. This one smells so good when you put it on! I keep this one in my purse!



My Lip Stuff Natural Lip Balm has over 500 flavors currently available and has the perfect blend of butters, oils, and beeswax to moisturize dry lips! The My Lip Stuff products are skin, earth, and animal friendly. They also take special requests for flavors of lip balm! So if you wanted them to make you a Chocolate Banana Mango lip balm, they could do it! My Lip Stuff even makes my favorite flavor, Creme Brulee!

My Lip Stuff offers tons of different label choices in different themes, so there is surely something for everyone. They offer personalized lip balm, custom label lip balm, private label lip balm, and promotional lip balm too! My Lip Stuff also sells Body Butters, Bath Salts, Linen Sprays, Lip Balms for Children, and so much more.

They even offer many different online coupons and discount offers! Click HERE to check them out! Some of them include:
- $25 GC for only $20!
- FREE Lip Balm with order of $15 or more
- 10 Pack of Lip Balm (regular labels/recipe) - $22!


Their mission:
My Lip Stuff's
ultimate mission is to end the suffering of people with chapped lips all across the land. In the process, we strive to end animal testing and save the environment with chemical-free natural products!

Is this a tall order? Absolutely. But we are dedicated- and are willing to start small. If we all do our part our combined efforts will make a big impact on the future of the planet, & just maybe we'll find a cure for something-- even if it is just chapped lips!

My Lip Stuff's
products are NEVER tested on animals & contain natural (from the earth) ingredients that are skin loving. Our products do NOT contain any harsh ingredients- and NEVER contain petroleum or mineral oil! We also do what we can by using recycled (and recyclable) materials whenever possible, and even using "green power" (power from renewable resources such as wind, water, or landfill gases-instead of oil). We also Drive a Hybrid, and use only fluorescent lighting (no incandescent bulbs here!).
In the end, We strive to create a natural product made from only the highest quality ingredients, with the least amount of impact on the environment and its inhabitants, for the lowest possible price.
