Ring in the New Year with New Lip Balms!

Hey everyone!

New Year's Eve is right around the corner, and I know many of you are thinking of your resolutions as I type! This year, my main resolution is to take better care of my lips. Over this past year, they have been dry, chapped, and just plain gross most months. So, in order to avoid this in 2014, I have decided to share with you a few of my favorite lip balms that I will be using this coming year!

Soap & Glory A Great Kisser Lip Moisture Balm in Peppermint

This lip balm is fantastic to use when your lips need an instant hit of moisture! The balm is light enough to use over lipsticks, but is beautiful enough to wear alone. It leaves a soft glossy look to lips, while drenching them in pepperminty goodness!

Price: $10.00

Where to Purchase: Sephora stores and webiste!

Maybelline Dr. Rescue Baby Lips in Coral Crave

These lip balms are fantastic to use on the go, because all you have to do is twist them up and apply! No worry about dirty fingers here! Maybelline has a wide range of sherr color options, so everyone will be able to find one that works for them!

Price: $3.99

Where to Purchase: A wide variety of retail stores!

Nivea Lip Butter in Raspberry Rose Kiss

Get ready to not only have your lips conditioned, but to also have one of the best smelling lip balms ever! This lip balm literally smells like raspberry candy, and leaves a sheer wash of pink behind on your lips!

Price: $3.99

Where to Purchase: A wide variety of retail stores!

Whitney

Note: I received the Soap & Glory Peppermint Lip Balm to try and feature on my blog. The Maybelline lip balm is a Christmas present from my mom, and I purchased the Nivea lip butter! I am not associated with any of the brands mentioned above, nor are they paying me to feature their products. As always, my reviews and opinions are 100% my own!
