My Lip Stuff Review & Giveaway!





My name is Lindsey, and I'm a lip balm junkie... it's just something I can't live without. I need it to survive, day to day. I tell myself that there are far worse things one can be addicted to and that makes it okay. After all, I'm not hurting anybody (besides my wallet at times *blushing*)... Therefore, I am proud to say that I fully embrace my lip balm addiction, and will absolutely not be taking any steps to overcome this habit. Which is a GREAT decision because ever since I tried My Lip Stuff Natural lip balms, it is totally apparent that I will not be breaking free from this lip balm obsession anytime soon.

I've said it before, and I'll say it one more time here: I do not like using products that have ingredients I cannot pronounce. I like to know what exactly is going into this stuff I'm putting on my face and mouth. And I certainly refuse to use anything that has been tested on animals in any way, shape or form! Luckily for me (and every other environmentally conscious human), it is completely possible to use fun products and be cute without harming the Earth. And My Lip Stuff is a terrific example of that. They offer a wide variety of lip balms, as well as other bath and body products, that are all skin, animal and earth friendly!



I discovered My Lip Stuff whilst on a search for eco-friendly beauty products and it was obvious from the moment I glanced at the website that I had hit the jackpot! I was thrilled when Brea, the mastermind behind My Lip Stuff, agreed to let me try out some of her amazingly yummy all natural lip balms!! I was also extremely grateful that Brea was going to choose the flavors for me to try, because after looking thru the list of 500+ flavors available, I couldn't narrow it down! I wanted them all! I received Blackberry, Grasshopper Pie, and Lemon Meringue. And her choices did NOT disappoint. No matter what you're craving, My Lip Stuff has it. From booze balms (Mojito, Screwdriver, and so on), to sweet treat balms (mmm Caramel Sundae, Fried Icecream, Devils Food Cake...I'm getting hungry!), and even to things you wouldn't even imagine could BE a balm (Cheese Pizza, Mud Bog, I could go on and on.) Honestly, after feeling how soft and buttery the balms felt on my lips, I think I'd have loved ANY flavor.

My biggest annoyance when it comes to using lip balms is how some brands are too hard and you have to really jam the tube down on your lips to get any kind of application. My Lip Stuff is the total opposite of that. It is so buttery and smooth feeling, it glides right on, leaving your lips soft and pretty! And it does NOT feel sticky. I have very long hair that I typically wear down, and there is nothing more icky than when my hair gets stuck on my lips because of thick, goopy lip balms. My Lip Stuff somehow perfected the art of looking glossy, but not feeling thick and rubbery on your lips. A feat not easily mastered, I'm sure.

My Lip Stuff also offers a variety of other bath and body products such as Body Butters, Bath Salts, Linen Sprays, and so much more! And of course all these products are environmentally friendly and never ever tested on animals. (Did I mention My Lip Stuff is supported by PETA?). So My Lip Stuff is proof that you can be girly, pretty, and eco-friendly at the same time.

Something else really creative and cool about My Lip Stuff: The labels on the lip balms can be personalized or customized for the perfect gift and/or promotional tool. Birthdays, holidays, wedding favors, party favors, baby showers, bridal showers, bachelorette parties, gifts, easter baskets, halloween treats, stocking stuffers, advertising & promotional items for your business, & oh so much more! Click here for more info and for some awesome examples of the customized labels.

So thank you to Brea for feeding my lip balm addiction. I'm totally hooked on My Lip Stuff now. I even ordered a few more, you know, just in case. A girl can never have too many lip balms.
