Hey everyone,

Inspired by nature’s purest ingredients, Burt’s Bees has moisturized, nourished and hydrated your lips for over 30 years with the original Beeswax Lip Balm. Throughout the years, Burt’s Bees has been adding flavors varying from Coconut and Pear to Eucalyptus and it won’t stop now. Introducing Burt’s Bees newest Lip Balm flavors – Wild Cherry and Vanilla Bean.

Wild Cherry Moisturizing Lip Balm, (burtsbees.com, $3.30): Made with rich cherry oil—cold pressed from cherry seed kernels—this balm’s sweet, natural flavor with just a hint of tartness will invigorate your senses and pamper your lips.

Vanilla Bean Moisturizing Lip Balm, (burtsbees.com, $3.30): A luxuriously complex and comforting lip balm bursting with all-natural vanilla. Couple that with moisturizing Shea Butter and soothing Vitamin E, and you’ve got a true treat for happy lips.

I received both of these new flavors to try out, and I have to say they are true to their descriptions! Wild Cherry is perfect for those moments when you need a pick-me-up, and Vanilla Bean is great at soothing your lips during these cold winter months!

XoXo,

Whitney
