I’ve been hesitant to take on any makeup sponsors because I want my focus to be on fashion. But, after a successful collaboration with Colourpop a few months ago, I felt ready to take on the challenge of marrying makeup with fashion.
And in a fun twist of fate, I was chosen to review a collection of lip balms from my all-time favorite brand Lip Smacker. When Lip Smacker wants you to review their products, you do it.
Lip Smacker is a brand I’ve used since I was a kid and I can easily see myself growing old with them. It was fun to find a way to review their cosmetics in a way that felt authentic to me.
I hope you enjoy my video and find it to be both entertaining and informative. (If video isn’t your thing, keep scrolling for a written review!)
A Little About Lip Smacker
Lip Smacker is an established name in the beauty world. I think the generation before mine has fond memories of using it in their youth as it was such a staple of any Caboodles case in the ’80s.
My introduction to the brand came in the early 2000s when I tried out the Dr. Pepper flavor on a whim. I’ve been hooked on their brand ever since!
What’s In The Lip Tin
The lip tin I was sent to review is a collection of four original & best Lip Smacker flavors. The flavors included are pink lemonade, watermelon, cherry, and strawberry.
My Review
Overall, I think the flavor choices are totally on point. My favorite is pink lemonade because, let’s be real, pink lemonade is my bae. (And I don’t use that word lightly)
Watermelon is very adventurous. It’s personally too tart for my taste but when I do grab it in a hurry, the taste brings images of summer to my mind.
Cherry has a classic taste. I believe it’s a derivative of the Dr. Pepper flavor that I mentioned above so I was already a fan when I tried it. I would say it’s the most neutral of all the flavors carried in this lip tin. So if you’re scared of flavor, try this one first!
And lastly is strawberry which is just as sweet as can be! I’ve been using it for the past few months and I really love the pleasant scent and that the taste is not overwhelming.
Overall, the lip balms constantly deliver on moisture, low key shine, and delicious flavor selection.
Where To Buy Lip Smacker
If you’re interested in purchasing any of the Lip Smacker products like novelty shaped tubes, collections & sets, or licensed characters, you might have difficulty as I have.
To my knowledge it’s carried at places like Kohls, Target, K-Mart, and of course you buy it directly from their website. I promise it’s worth it if you can find it!
I want to give a big shout-out to Octoly and Lip Smacker for making this review possible. Also, if you happen to find any extra pink lemonade lip balm lying around, feel free to send it my way.?
Let me know in the comments what flavor would you most likely stash in your Caboodles case!
Oh man, Lip Smacker! That brings back so many good memories of teenage summers and childhood excitement over my first “makeup” haha! I love all of the looks you put together with these, they’re so cute! This is the best way to review makeup, I think!
