I may be showing my age but as a wee spa girl, my love of Bonne Bell’s original Lip Smackers was about as deep as my crush on Donny Osmond. I remember many a Christmas morning emptying out my stocking into a pile and carefully separating out the new school supplies (mmm, pink gummy erasers and the smell of fresh cut No. 2 pencils!) and saving the best for last, I would pop the lids off my new Lip Smackers and take a deep whiff of each one. Ahhh, Jelly Bean! Bubble Gum! Tootsie Roll! They were all good (except Good and Plenty, gross). I would use each and every one until I had to plunge my tiny finger into the tube to dig out the last gooey remnants. Oh my gosh, that stuff was so good — and Donny Osmond was so insanely hot.
Things change. Obviously. Although he can still bust a move, Donny Osmond is slightly less hot. And even though there’s like a ka-gillion different flavored lip balms on the market, Lip-Smacker Land is long gone.
Enter Crazy Rumors lip balms. They’re the Lip Smackers for grown-ups.
Crazy Rumors is an all-natural, vegan lip balm line made with 70% organic ingredients including organic shea butter, organic jojoba oil, and a mix of natural and organic flavors slightly sweetened with a hint of Stevia. Yes, not only do these suckers keep your lips moist and dewy but they taste good! Plus, they’re made by a real family — Brooklyn-transplants Brian and Edie, who mix up their concoctions under the watchful eyes of four cats and one budding spa girl down south in Georgia.
Flavor collections include Gumball (bubble gum inspired flavors), A La Mode (ice cream, ice cream!), Fresh Squeezed (citrus flavors like Limeade and Pink Grapefruit), Soda Pop (mmm, Black Cherry soda and Root Beer to name a few), Perk (coffee inspired sips like Amaretto and Mocha), Brew (think Spiced Chai and Apple Spice tea), Candy Cane (twists off the ol’ peppermint stick) and HibisKiss (organic hibiscus flavored balms with a touch of natural mineral color).
Each tube is $3.99 or buy four of each collection for $15.
