Gourmet Lip-Smacking Moisturizers

Etsy Seller 'soap' is Dishing Out Delectable Vegan Lip Balms

— May 18, 2012 — Eco
Etsy seller 'soap' offers delicious homemade gourmet, flavored vegan lip balms at accessible prices. The San Francisco-based shop sells a number of earth and animal-friendly products that smell as delicious as they sound.

The flavors range from homestyle baked goods like pumpkin pie to classic drinks like Chardonnay. Some notable options include earl grey tea, mojitos, chocolate-dipped strawberries and the crowd favorite, bacon. The product uses strict vegan ingredients such as candelilla, vegetable oil, vitamin E and edible essential oils. The slightly sugared lip smackers go on smooth without that greasy shine.

Everyone from your mother to your boyfriend will be wanting to borrow (and steal) these fun foodie vegan lip balms. Treat yourself or your peers with a tasty and practical gift.
