Balm Chicky Balm Balm Combines 70s Adult Films and Lip Balm

— November 5, 2013 — Pop Culture

A product designed with the aesthetics of the adult films from the 1970s in mind, ‘Balm Chicky Balm Balm’ contains triple the amount of lip balm than your traditional tube and is available in a whole orgy (their word not mine) of different flavors; Juicy Melons, Sweet Baby Ginger, Hot Chocolate Love, Wild Mountain Honey and Huge Cucumber.
