Ahead of the holidays, a series of new Lip Smackers have become available, including a pair of [mini ones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-neutrals-lip-butter) that feature [Disney's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultra-glossy-lip) iconic Mickey and Minnie characters.

Consumers can get the duo for just $20 USD from the brand's website, with each boasting different exteriors and scents to offer some variety. The Lip Smacker that's shaped like Mickey has a 'Whipped Pineapple Magic' scent, and has a gold exterior to match. The Minnie iteration has the scent of 'Strawberry Beignet,' and has a rose gold exterior instead. In addition, Lip Smacker's Minnie balm features the character's classic bow, which is marked with tiny rhinestones instead of polka-dots.

As the [lip balm duo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tamagotchi-multi-carry-balm) is a limited edition release, Disney fans looking for some aesthetically pleasing and hydrating products will have to act soon to get their hands on the set.
