Softlips, the world-renowned lip balm company, now has two new flavors (limited editions, however) that are perfect as stocking stuffers or for yourself. They are Sugar Cookie and Winter Mint. I have these two, and I love them! The scents are delicious; I am particularly crazy about the Sugar Cookie one. Have you ever tried to sniff your lips all day? You will when you try these! On the healthy side, there are also moisturizing ingredients to prevent chapped lips and offer SPF 20 protection.

Each new flavor is paired with a Softlips favorite—Sugar Cookie comes with Cherry, and Winter Mint with Vanilla (another to-die-for scent!). Each pack is $3.99.

There’s also the new Soflips Tints, available in Rose and Bronze. I have these, too. They add a subtle touch of color to your lips, and there's a wildberry flavor to them. These tints complement most skin complexions, so don’t worry about which one to buy. Get them both. I did! (It’s $3.00 per item. They DO last for quite a while.)
