I've been kind of addicted to these balms! In fact, I've made several purchases from Country Blossom! And, I think I have most of the flavors...
WHERE TO FIND:
PRICE:
The prices are fantabulous! Each balm is $2.50, or you can buy a set of 3 for $6.75. Isn't that a great deal?!?!
SHIPPING & PACKAGING:
Shipping costs are quite reasonable. Every item (even a set) is $2 for shipping, and $0.25 for every item after that. And, I received my items in a timely manner!
APPEARANCE:
The balms come in the standard .15oz clear tube. All of the labels have the Country Blossom image and logo and flavor name. They're quite cute!
INGREDIENTS:
Beeswax, olive oil, coconut oil, vitamin E, and flavor oil.
TEXTURE & GLIDE:
These balms take a little extra push to get 'em going, but it's totally worth it! They're almost the perfect consistency between light and heavy. The balm feels so creamy and smooth on the lips with light gloss! I love it!
MOISTURIZING ABILITIES:
The balm leaves behind noticeable softness!
WEAR:
The wear is about average. I'd say around 1.5 to 2 hours.
SCENT & FLAVOR:
I, um, ordered several flavors...
- Blueberry Pomegranate: Can definitely smell the blueberries in this one! It's like sweet, sugary blueberries with a hint of pomegranate!
- Caramel Apple: This is a scent that has never really appealed to me, but I thought I'd give it a shot. It's actually not too bad. It's caramel-y, but not as sweet as I was afraid of. The apples come out after applied.
- Creme Brulee: This one is one of my favorites! I've never had creme brulee before, so I don't know what it actually smells like. But this balm is fantastic! It has a lightly sweet, custard scent with a faint wisp of something burnt. It's a very creamy scent, and utterly fantastic!
- Coconut Peach: This scent surprised me. I thought it'd be sweet and peachy, but it's not. It's like coconut milk with peaches. Actually, I think that's how it's described, but I didn't expect it to actually smell like that! Anyway, it's a very good coconut and peaches scent that isn't nauseatingly sweet. Score!
- French Vanilla: I'm addicted to vanilla scents and this one is one of the best I've tried! It's like vanilla ice cream! Yumm!
- Green Tea & Honey: I'd have to say this one is my least favorite. But that's because I convinced myself that I like green tea scents and I actually don't. So, if you like green tea scents, you might like this one. But it's not for me... I think it smells kind of floral.
- Mint Chocolate Chip: It's like chocolaty, minty goodness. I wish it had more of a vanilla scent, so it'd be more like the ice cream. But, it's still a lovely scent, and another one of my favorites!
- Peanut Butter & Strawberry Jelly: You can definitely smell the strawberries in this one! The peanut butter doesn't come out until after you put it on. So it's not overwhelmingly nutty, which is probably more "user friendly". However, I wish it had more peanut butter scent. I'm weird though -- I crave nutty scented lip balms. Ha. I still enjoy the scent though. :)
- Pomegranate: This one is a nice lightly fruity, pomegranate scent. It's a nice, as expected, scent.
- Strawberry Lemonade: This is a sweet and tart scent, that kind of sparkles your senses! You can definitely smell the strawberries and lemons. It's quite a refreshing scent!
BUY AGAIN?:
I would definitely buy from Country Blossom again! Actually, I've already visited this shop 3 times, and I don't expect it to be my last! The balms are fantastic and creamy, and may be on the list of my all time favorite lip balms! There's a lot of flavors with a few unique ones! And, the prices are absolutely fantastic! I would HIGHLY recommend these balms, so go check out Country Blossom right now!
MY RATING: 5 OUT OF 5
