Alba Botanica – Natural Hawaiian Lip Balm


Well. That was lame. Four whole posts for 2013, eh? Good job, Em, good job. So, as per on my New Year’s resolutions, I want to take a crack at this again, and actually post reviews more often that, you know, three times ever.

Today I’d like to talk about a lip balm. When it comes to lip products, I’ve very one sided. I’ve never been a big fan of lip gloss and really kind of hate lipsticks. But when it comes to lip balm, I am aaaaaaaaaaaaaall over that. So this is going to be about a wonderful lip balm. A very luscious and lovely lip balm. J It’s the Alba Botanica Natural Hawaiian lip balm! (what a mouthful, eh?) And here it is!


(sorry for the colored middle part, it doesn't come like that, I sometimes put this over something tinted!)

It smells of coconuts, and is super buttery! It lasts quiet a long time on the lips, and always makes them feel super moisture, no matter the weather! (which is good, because as I type this, it is currently -18° here in Wisconsin!) It comes off clear and makes your lips slightly shiny – not glossy, but just a nice sheen to them. The best part of this balm, for me at least, is it’s made of all natural, good for you ingredients. It’s something I've been striving for, for the past year, and lip balm is by far the easiest thing to find that doesn’t have any nasty stuffs in it. This one has awesome oils like coconut, caster, jojoba, apricot, and soybean, as well as lots of natural extracts and waxes.

I did find this at Target, and I think I've seen it at Walmart, but beyond that, I haven’t seen it in person anywhere else. Of course you can always find it online, like here: http://www.albabotanica.com/lip/lip-balms/nourishing-coconut-cream.html. I will be definitely buying this again, for it is one of my favorite lip balms!

Happy Monday!
